You got a call from your sister after she visited on a Sunday afternoon near the Windham Green, and she was worried.

Parkinson’s Care is trained, experienced caregiving for someone with Parkinson’s who’s living at home in Windham. It’s not medical nursing, but it’s care built around what actually happens day to day: managing tremors when they’re worst, helping with balance and falls risk, keeping medication schedules straight, and watching for the small changes that matter.
On a typical day, your caregiver helps with morning routines, meals, movement around the home, and medication timing. They notice when your parent’s tremor gets worse, when fatigue is setting in, when a fall risk is climbing. They’re present in a way that lets you breathe, and they report back to you honestly about what they’re seeing.
After discharge from Windham Hospital or when you’re figuring out how to keep your parent safe at home, Parkinson’s Care fills the gap that family alone can’t manage. We’re nurse-founded, which means we understand the medical side of Parkinson’s, but we’re also grounded in the reality of living with it every single day.
Our founders built this company after managing Parkinson’s in their own families. We understand tremors, falls, the medication timing that keeps everything stable, and the mobility decline that sneaks up on you. That’s not textbook knowledge. That’s lived experience.
We don’t just send the next available caregiver. We listen to what your parent’s life looks like, what their specific tremor patterns are, what time of day they’re steadiest, and we match someone with real Parkinson’s care background. The person who shows up knows what they’re doing.
Parkinson’s changes. Some days are steadier, some aren’t. When you need to adjust care, add hours, or talk through what you’re seeing, we’re reachable and we respond quickly. You’re not calling a 1-800 number in another state.
We work with families before and after Windham Hospital stays. We know the discharge process, the transition home, and the care patterns that matter in Windham. We’re here, in your town, not parachuting in from somewhere else.

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.

You get the same consistent caregiver, matched by a nurse, not whoever happens to be available.
Common questions
A caregiver helps with morning routines, bathing, dressing, and meals. They assist with movement around the home and help prevent falls by staying close when your parent's tremor or balance is affected. They manage medication schedules, reminding your parent when it's time and making sure doses are taken. They watch for changes in tremor, fatigue, stiffness, or mood and report back to you. They're present and attentive during the hours they're there, which gives you time to work, rest, or handle other responsibilities.
We can often start within 24 to 48 hours of discharge, depending on availability and scheduling. Let us know your parent's discharge date and what you need, and we'll match a caregiver and get them to your home fast. If you need care to start the day of discharge, call us immediately and we'll do everything we can to make that happen. The transition from hospital to home is when falls and missed medications happen most, so speed matters.
Parkinson's Care is private pay, which means you're paying out of pocket. We're not covered by Medicare, Medicaid, or most insurance plans. We know that's a real cost, and we're honest about it upfront. Some families use long-term care insurance if they have it, or they talk to their financial adviser about options. What you're paying for is experienced, dependable care matched to your parent's specific Parkinson's needs.
Home health aides come through a medical referral, usually after a hospital stay, and are covered by insurance for a limited time. Parkinson's Care is specialized: our caregivers have real experience managing Parkinson's tremors, falls, medication timing, and the behavioral or mood changes that come with it. We're not time-limited. You hire us directly, and we stay as long as your parent needs support. We're trained to recognize what Parkinson's looks like and how to respond.
Yes. We ask detailed questions about your parent's daily patterns, when their tremor is worst, how they feel about male or female caregivers, what their personality is like, and what matters most to your family. We then match someone who fits, not just someone available. We explain the match to you and walk through how it will work before the first day. If the match isn't right, we adjust.
We have backup caregivers in Windham and nearby towns so that your parent's care doesn't stop. We'll let you know in advance if your regular caregiver will be out, and we'll introduce the backup and confirm the plan. If something unexpected happens, we call you right away with options. Parkinson's Care is too important to leave to chance, so we plan for gaps.
