Providing Home Care Services since 2000 in CT, MA, NH, and NY
Elderly Caregivers can improve your aging loved one’s quality of life by providing compassionate, one-on-one home care and companionship in the comfort of their home.
Our personalized and affordable services are available 7 days a week and can range from a few hours to 24/7 live in care. We offer early onset dementia and Alzheimer’s care.
We don’t just care for our clients, we form lasting relationships with them.
Avoid sending your loved ones to a nursing home, in an unfamiliar environment. Our clients never have to leave the comforts of their homes. We provide them with companionship, security and assist with a wide variety of daily activities.
Our caregivers are sweet, caring, skilled, pre-screened, pre-qualified and come with complete background checks. They are here to help your elderly family member enjoy living at home.
Homecare Is the Best Medicine.
Sometimes, the need for help becomes clear after a hospital stay. Other times, the changes happen gradually. Laundry starts piling up. Preparing dinner takes more effort. A spouse feels uncomfortable leaving the house because their partner needs assistance.
Whatever brought your family to this conversation, you deserve thoughtful guidance and support that respects your loved one.
Elderly Caregivers provides personalized, non-medical home care in Bethel, Connecticut. Our compassionate caregivers help older adults with everyday activities while honoring the familiar routines and personal choices that make home feel like home.
Call (203) 628-7438 to discuss home care for your loved one in Bethel.
Choosing care involves more than deciding how many hours of assistance to arrange. It means understanding what your loved one needs, what they value, and where family members could use additional help.
We welcome conversations about the practical details:
Which activities have become difficult?
What does your loved one want to continue doing independently?
Are mornings, evenings, or overnight hours the biggest concern?
Does a family caregiver need time for work, appointments, or rest?
What preferences would help a caregiver build a comfortable relationship?
Elderly Caregivers serves Bethel from our Danbury office. We offer personalized care plans and an approach centered on finding a caregiver match for each individual.
Personal care should be provided with patience, privacy, and respect. Our caregivers assist with daily activities while recognizing that your loved one’s comfort and preferences matter.
Depending on the care plan, assistance may include:
Bathing, dressing, and grooming.
Toileting and incontinence care.
Walking and transferring.
Meal preparation and eating assistance.
Medication reminders.
Light housekeeping and laundry.
Daily living reminders and safety supervision.
We can discuss which tasks require help and how assistance can fit into your loved one’s routine.
A regular conversation, a shared meal, or help completing household tasks can make a day feel more manageable.
Elderly Caregivers offers companionship, meal preparation, and light housekeeping support. These services can be helpful when living alone has become more challenging or relatives are unable to visit as often as they would like.
The relationship matters, too. A caregiver has the opportunity to learn about your loved one’s interests and bring a familiar presence into the home.
Memory changes can affect personal routines, supervision needs, and family responsibilities. A spouse may find it difficult to step away, while adult children may be trying to understand what level of assistance is appropriate.
Elderly Caregivers offers Alzheimer’s and dementia home care. Our team can discuss your loved one’s daily needs and the type of help your family is considering.
Share the details that help your loved one feel comfortable, including familiar activities, preferred routines, and approaches that work well when assistance is needed.
Some seniors need help at several points throughout the day and night. Families may be concerned about overnight assistance, frequent personal care needs, or a loved one being alone between visits.
Elderly Caregivers offers 24-hour and live-in home care options. We can explain the available arrangements and discuss the caregiver schedule, rest periods, and overnight coverage included.
Tell us how often your loved one needs help so the conversation reflects their actual needs.
Coming home after a hospital or rehabilitation stay can be reassuring, but everyday tasks may require additional assistance.
Our Hospital-to-Home program provides non-medical support during this transition. Families can discuss help with personal routines, meals, and household activities while arranging any separately prescribed nursing or therapy services.
Contact us before discharge when possible so there is time to discuss the help needed at home.
Elderly Caregivers offers home care for veterans and surviving spouses who need help with daily living.
Call our team to discuss available services. If your family is exploring veterans benefits, confirm eligibility and coverage with the appropriate benefits office as part of your planning.
For many older adults, staying at home means remaining close to familiar neighbors, favorite routines, and a community they know well.
Bethel offers opportunities for older residents to stay involved through the Senior Center, along with transportation and nutrition resources that can help address everyday needs.
A thoughtful support plan considers both what happens at home and what your loved one wants to continue doing beyond the front door.
For example, attending a community activity may involve several separate arrangements: getting dressed, preparing a meal beforehand, reserving transportation, and determining whether someone needs to accompany the person.
Discussing the whole routine helps families identify where assistance is needed.
Home care is often one part of a broader support plan. A primary care provider may address medical concerns, specialists may manage specific conditions, and a caregiver may assist with everyday activities at home.
The following resources can help Bethel families explore medical care and plan follow-up services.
Village Square Internal Medicine, part of ProHealth Physicians, provides primary care for adults in Bethel.
The Nuvance provider directory lists the practice at:
2 Elizabeth Street
Bethel, CT 06801
Phone: (203) 791-2221
ProHealth also references a Village Square care team at 8 Elizabeth Street, so confirm the correct office address when scheduling. Ask about new-patient availability, insurance participation, and the provider best suited to your needs.
Before an appointment, consider writing down changes you have noticed in daily life. Specific examples, such as difficulty getting dressed or keeping up with meals, can help explain concerns clearly.
Danbury Hospital is a regional hospital resource at 24 Hospital Avenue in Danbury. The hospital serves the Greater Danbury area.
For a Bethel resident returning home after a hospital stay, the discharge team can help explain follow-up appointments, prescribed services, and equipment needs.

Families can use the Nuvance Health provider directory to explore physicians and their practice locations. The directory includes Bethel internal medicine providers with Danbury Hospital affiliations.
When arranging an appointment, confirm:
The exact office location.
Whether a referral is required.
Insurance participation.
Accessibility and mobility accommodations.
Whether a family member or support person should attend.
What records or paperwork to bring.
These details are especially useful when a loved one sees providers at more than one location.
If a hospital team recommends nursing, physical therapy, occupational therapy, or other clinical services, ask which providers can serve your loved one’s Bethel address.
Clarify the start date, visit schedule, and who to contact with questions. Then identify the assistance needed between those visits, such as help dressing, preparing meals, or completing household tasks.
Elderly Caregivers’ Hospital-to-Home program provides non-medical assistance during the transition home.
Healthcare organizations are listed as community resources. Their inclusion does not indicate an affiliation with Elderly Caregivers.
A discharge plan becomes more useful when everyone understands their responsibilities.
Before your loved one returns home, consider discussing these questions with the hospital or rehabilitation team:
What assistance will be needed during the first day and night?
Can my loved one manage bathing, dressing, and toileting without help?
Will someone need to remain overnight?
Does equipment need to arrive before discharge?
Who will explain medication changes?
Are nursing or therapy services being arranged?
What follow-up appointments are needed?
Who should we contact if questions arise at home?
Next, decide which responsibilities family members can manage and where additional help is needed.

Family caregiving often grows gradually. What begins as a weekly visit can become daily assistance with meals, laundry, appointments, and personal care.
A spouse may feel responsible for every part of the day. An adult child may be balancing caregiving with work and children. Relatives who live farther away may struggle to understand what is happening between visits.
Start by writing down the responsibilities your family is currently managing. Identify which tasks require a healthcare professional, which can be shared among relatives, and which might fit a non-medical home care plan.
Asking for help creates an opportunity to make the routine more manageable for everyone involved.
You do not have to wait for a crisis to explore assistance.
A conversation may be helpful when:
Bathing or dressing has become more difficult.
Meals and household tasks are being missed.
Your loved one would welcome regular companionship.
A spouse needs help covering daily responsibilities.
A hospital discharge is approaching.
Relatives cannot provide all the hours of assistance needed.
Your family is concerned about overnight support.
Include your loved one in the conversation whenever possible. Ask what help they would welcome and what they want to continue doing on their own.
Before choosing an arrangement, ask questions that relate directly to your family’s needs:
What personal care services can caregivers provide?
How do you learn about a client’s preferences?
How does caregiver matching work?
What happens when a scheduled caregiver is unavailable?
What coverage is included in overnight or live-in arrangements?
How should family members share concerns?
How are changes in care needs addressed?
What are the rates, minimum hours, and cancellation terms?
Practical details also matter. Tell the agency about stairs, pets, mobility equipment, preferred routines, and the family member who should receive scheduling updates.
You do not need to have every answer before contacting us.
Share what is happening. Tell us about your loved one and the help your family is considering.
Discuss needs at home. Our intake process includes an in-home visit to understand the person and their environment.
