Parkinson’s Care is in-home support designed around what actually happens when someone you love has Parkinson’s and wants to keep living at home. We’re here for the tremors that make getting dressed harder, the falls that happen without warning, the slow decline in mobility that changes everything. We also watch medication schedules because they matter more than most people realize.
On a typical day, a caregiver might help with morning routine, keep track of when pills are due, watch for signs of a fall risk, and stay present when your parent needs steadiness, whether that’s walking to the kitchen or just someone in the room. We’re not replacing what you do as family. We’re filling the hours and the worry gaps.
Preston families often connect with us after a hospital stay at William W. Backus Hospital or because a doctor appointment revealed something has shifted. We’re nurse-founded, which means we understand Parkinson’s from the clinical side, not just the textbook side. That knowledge shapes how we brief caregivers and how we match them to your parent’s actual needs.
Our founder trained as a nurse and has seen what tremors do, how quickly falls can happen, and how medication timing shapes an entire day. That’s not theory for us. We translate that into how we hire, brief, and stay involved with every family.
We don’t just send someone. We learn your parent’s specific situation first, then match a caregiver who fits, and we brief them on what matters most. That’s the difference between coverage and care.
Parkinson’s doesn’t follow a schedule. When mobility declines or a fall happens or medication needs shift, you reach us and we respond. You’re not managing the caregiver alone.
We’re local to Preston and the surrounding towns. We understand the discharge process from William W. Backus Hospital and can pick up care right away. We know the doctors, the systems, the rhythms of this county.

For Parkinson’s Care specifically, not just whoever is available that week.

Why families choose us
Every aide is trained and supervised through an RN’s lens — not just placed and forgotten.
Personality fit matters more than skill on paper. We match for temperament, pace, and patience.
No franchise rotation. You work with the people who run this agency — direct, accessible, accountable.
Most families are matched with a caregiver within 24 to 48 hours. When something shifts at home, we move quickly.
We build a daily structure around your parent’s rhythm — meals, walks, evenings — and protect it.
You hear from us, not just the aide. Updates on appetite, sleep, mood, mobility — the things that matter.
Every caregiver clears a multi-step screening — background check, reference checks, and an in-person interview with our RN founder — before they're ever placed in a home.
Why families trust us
Private Duty Aides is nurse-founded. Every caregiver clears a multi-step screening — a background check, reference checks, and an in-person interview with our RN founder — before they are ever placed in a home. You get the same consistent caregiver, matched by a nurse, not whoever happens to be available.
Common questions
A caregiver helps with bathing, dressing, and grooming. They monitor and remind about medications at the right times. They're present and watching for fall risk, helping with mobility around the home, and handling what you can't be there to do. They're also there to listen, which matters more than people think when someone's dealing with Parkinson's. The specifics depend on your parent's needs.
Often within 24 to 48 hours. We coordinate with the hospital's discharge planner, understand the orders and restrictions, and match a trained caregiver right away. If you need care the same day you come home, we work to make that happen. The faster we start, the safer the transition home.
Parkinson's Care is private pay. Medicare covers skilled nursing and physical therapy, but ongoing in-home support for daily living and safety is not typically covered. We're transparent about cost from the first call and can talk through what fits your family's budget and timeline.
Home health aides work under a doctor's order and are usually time-limited after a hospital stay. Parkinson's Care is ongoing, flexible support for families who want their parent at home long-term and need someone trained in Parkinson's-specific risks. We're not replacing medical care. We're the stability between doctor visits.
Yes. We ask detailed questions about your parent's mobility, tremors, medication routine, personality, and what matters most to them. Then we match someone with Parkinson's experience who fits. It's not random. We want the same caregiver returning, building trust and routine.
We have backup caregivers trained on your parent's needs. We communicate that shift clearly to you and your parent ahead of time, if possible. You're never left scrambling. We stay available and responsive because we know how fragile the routine can feel when Parkinson's is involved.
