Your mom’s tremor was worse at Thanksgiving dinner this year, and your sister noticed she wasn’t walking to the mailbox anymore.

Call (475) 264-4830 Learn how it works
Parkinson’s Care is steady, trained support for your parent who’s staying at home while managing Parkinson’s symptoms. We handle the tremors, the falls, the slow days when mobility drops, the medication schedules that can’t slip, and the practical help that keeps your parent safe and steady in their own house.
On any given day, this looks like helping with morning routines, managing medications on time, watching for balance and fall risk, assisting with movement and transfers, and just being present so you’re not doing it alone from a distance. Families tell us they finally sleep better knowing someone who understands Parkinson’s is there.
We work closely with Windham Hospital and local doctors, and we know the Scotland area inside out. Because we’re nurse-founded, we bring clinical insight to everyday care, which matters when you’re managing a condition that changes week to week.
Our founder trained in clinical care and knows the real shape of Parkinson’s at home, not just the textbook version. We understand tremors aren’t just a symptom, they’re a daily frustration. Falls aren’t rare events, they’re a constant worry. That experience shapes how we match caregivers and how we show up.
We don’t just send someone. We learn your parent’s specific needs, their tremor patterns, their fall history, their medication routine. Then we match a caregiver with Parkinson’s experience and brief them thoroughly so there’s no guessing on day one.
Parkinson’s changes. A new symptom shows up, a medication adjustment happens, your parent has a rough week. You can reach us, tell us what’s happening, and we adjust the care plan without bureaucracy or delay.
We know Windham Hospital’s discharge process, we know the neighborhoods of Scotland, and we’re familiar with the doctors and pharmacies you’re already working with. That local knowledge keeps care smooth and connected.
How it works
We listen to your situation. No forms, no pressure, no sales pitch.
For Parkinson’s Care specifically, not just whoever is available that week.

We stay in contact so you’re never left wondering how things are going.
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 helping your parent get ready, managing medications at the right times, preparing meals, assisting with movement and balance to prevent falls, light housekeeping that keeps the home safe, and simply being present and alert. We watch for changes, like tremor increases or mobility drops, and we report back to you and the doctor. The schedule and focus shift based on your parent's current needs and your family's priorities.
We can often start within 24 to 48 hours of discharge if the need is clear. We work directly with the hospital's discharge planner and your parent's doctor to make sure the transition is smooth. If you're planning ahead, we can match and brief a caregiver before discharge day so they're ready to step in immediately. The faster we start, the safer the first days at home tend to be.
We're private pay, which means you work directly with us rather than through insurance billing. That actually works in your favor: no prior authorizations, no waiting for approval, no coverage limits on hours. We can be flexible with scheduling and adjust care as you need it. We're happy to discuss rates and what different service levels look like for your situation.
Home health aides provide personal care support, usually ordered by a doctor and billed through insurance with strict visit limits. Parkinson's Care is different: we specialize in Parkinson's, we're available flexibly based on your actual needs not an insurance authorization, and we're nurse-founded so the whole team understands the condition. We can work alongside home health if you have both, or be your main in-home support.
Yes. We take time to understand your parent's tremor patterns, fall history, medication routine, personality, and what your family needs most. Then we match a caregiver with Parkinson's experience who fits. We brief them thoroughly on your parent's specific situation so day one feels less like a stranger showing up and more like someone who already knows what matters.
We have backup caregivers trained and ready. If your regular person gets sick or needs a day off, we don't just cancel on you, we send someone familiar with your parent and your home. We keep good communication so you know who's coming and why. Consistency matters with Parkinson's, so we work hard to keep your schedule stable.
