Parkinson’s Care is in-home support built around what your parent actually needs: help managing tremors, preventing falls, adjusting to mobility changes, and staying on top of medication schedules. We’re there so your parent can keep living at home, not because you’ve stopped being present, but because you’ve brought trained eyes and hands into the house.
Day to day, that might look like morning assistance with bathing and dressing when balance is off, noon check-ins on medication timing, afternoon mobility support during walks around the neighborhood, and evening meal prep when fatigue sets in. We watch for the small signs: a shuffle in the gait, a missed dose, a near-fall that wasn’t reported. We document what changes so you and your parent’s doctor can stay informed.
Many Salisbury families we work with have a parent recently discharged from Sharon Hospital after a Parkinson’s-related event or evaluation. Our nurse founder built this service because she saw families struggle with the gap between hospital discharge and real-world care at home. We know Litchfield County, we know the local doctors, and we know how to make the handoff seamless.
Our founder is a registered nurse who spent years in Parkinson’s settings and saw families drowning in the details. That background means we understand tremor patterns, fall risk, medication interactions, and the behavioral changes that come with the disease. We don’t just help, we anticipate.
We don’t send anyone without understanding your parent’s specific needs, personality, and the progression stage you’re managing. Every caregiver we place has experience with Parkinson’s Care and gets a detailed briefing about your parent’s routine, triggers, and what matters most to them.
Parkinson’s is unpredictable. If a fall happens, if a new symptom emerges, or if your regular caregiver can’t make a shift, you reach us directly. We’re local, we’re reachable, and we treat changes seriously.
We know Salisbury and the surrounding towns, we work regularly with Sharon Hospital’s discharge planners, and we understand the rhythms of how care flows in this region. That’s not a small thing when your parent needs continuity.

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 typical day includes medication reminders and supervision, physical assistance with bathing or dressing if tremors or mobility make it unsafe, fall prevention support during transfers or walking, meal prep tailored to swallowing or appetite changes, and observation for any new symptoms or concerns. We also document what we see so you and your parent's doctor have a real picture of how things are progressing. The schedule is built around your parent's rhythm, not ours.
We typically start within 48 to 72 hours of a discharge if the need is there and you reach us right away. Sharon Hospital's discharge team knows our process, so coordination is usually straightforward. If your parent is coming home and needs immediate support, call us the moment you have a discharge date, and we'll align with the hospital's timeline.
Parkinson's Care is private pay, which means you're not waiting for insurance approvals or limited to a specific number of hours. That's honestly part of why we can be flexible and responsive when your parent's needs shift. We'll help you understand what the cost is and what options make sense for your family's situation.
Home health aides are often licensed through medical agencies and provide general personal care under a doctor's order, usually for a set number of hours and for a limited time. Parkinson's Care is specialized support designed for the specific challenges of the disease: tremor management, fall prevention, medication timing, and the behavioral or mobility changes that come with it. We're trained in what Parkinson's does to your parent's body and mind.
Yes, absolutely. We learn about your parent's personality, their specific symptoms, what time of day is hardest, and what matters most to them. Then we match a caregiver we trust to have experience and patience with Parkinson's Care. We introduce you before the first shift, and we stay involved if adjustments are needed.
We have a backup plan and we communicate it to you upfront. If your regular caregiver can't make a shift, we place someone else from our network who also has Parkinson's experience and gets a briefing on your parent's needs. We don't leave you hanging, and we don't send someone unprepared.
