Parkinson’s Care is hands-on support for your parent living at home while managing Parkinson’s disease. We focus on the things that matter most: tracking medication schedules so doses never get missed or doubled, helping with tremors and mobility changes before they lead to a fall, and being there during the parts of the day when you can’t be.
On a typical day, your caregiver watches for changes in balance and movement, helps with tasks that have become harder, reminds about medications at the right time, and stays alert to the small shifts that matter. They’re present during morning routines, midday check-ins, or evening supervision, depending on what your parent needs. Most families find that consistent presence makes all the difference.
If your parent has recently come home from Charlotte Hungerford Hospital or is managing Parkinson’s in their own space across all of Winchester, we’re here to bridge that gap. Our caregivers are trained in what Parkinson’s actually looks like day to day, not just in theory. Being nurse-founded means we understand medication interactions, recognize when a fall risk is rising, and know when to flag something for the doctor.
Our founder is a nurse who’s worked with Parkinson’s patients for years. That’s why our caregivers aren’t just trained in the basics, they recognize tremors getting worse, spot fall hazards before they become emergencies, and understand how medication schedules can drift without someone watching. We see what you see.
We don’t send a different caregiver each week. We learn your parent’s routine, their personality, what helps them feel steady and secure. That consistency matters more with Parkinson’s than people realize. Your parent knows who’s coming, and we know exactly what they need.
Parkinson’s isn’t static. A fall happens. Medication timing shifts. Your parent’s mood changes or mobility declines faster than expected. You call us, and we listen without the runaround. We adjust the care plan because we’re local and invested in your family.
We’re in Litchfield County, we work with the doctors and discharge planners at Charlotte Hungerford Hospital, and we understand what your parent needs the day they come home. That continuity means no dropped threads, no confusion about medications or mobility support.

We build a daily structure around your parent’s rhythm — meals, walks, evenings — and protect it.

Common questions
We watch your parent's tremors and movement, help with tasks like dressing or bathing when balance is an issue, and manage medication schedules so nothing gets missed. We stay alert to falls, changes in walking or posture, and mood shifts. Some families need morning help, others need afternoon presence, and some need evening supervision. We customize it to your parent's actual life and your family's schedule.
We can often start within days, sometimes the same day. We work with the hospital's discharge team, get the medication list and care notes, and brief your caregiver before they arrive. If your parent is coming home on a specific day, we make sure someone is ready. We don't make families wait during that vulnerable first week home.
No. Parkinson's Care is private pay, which means you pay us directly. We're honest about cost from the start so there are no surprises. Some families use long-term care insurance, and we can help with that paperwork. Others adjust their hours based on budget. We work with what you have.
Home health aides come through insurance or Medicare when there's a medical reason, usually for a set number of hours, and often rotate caregivers. Parkinson's Care is continuity. Your parent gets the same person, trained in Parkinson's specifically, for as long as you need it. We're not task-based, we're relationship-based.
Yes. We ask detailed questions about your parent's personality, what helps them feel safe, whether they prefer quiet mornings or conversation, and what Parkinson's challenges matter most right now. Then we find someone who fits. We've built relationships across Winchester and know who brings the right combination of skill and presence.
We have backup coverage because we know that's non-negotiable for families managing Parkinson's. We don't cancel. Your parent might see a familiar backup caregiver we've already introduced, or in rare cases, someone new, but we communicate first and keep disruption minimal. Consistency is too important to take lightly.
