Around-the-Clock Compassionate Live-in Care When You Need It Most.
Finding qualified caregivers for a loved one who needs continuous 24-hour & Live-in Care support is never easy. At Ridge Home Care, we’ve done all the preparation for you. Once you place your trust in us, we carefully match your loved one with a caregiver uniquely suited to their personality and their care needs — so you can feel confident, not just hopeful, about who’s in their home.
Two Ways Ridge Home Care Can Provide Around-the-Clock Support
When a loved one needs more constant support than occasional visits can offer, having a caregiver by their side day and night brings real comfort — to them, and to you. Ridge Home Care provides live-in and 24-hour in-home caregivers for families throughout Middlebury, Southington, and the surrounding communities, with two ways to structure that support:
Shift-Based Care — Ridge Home Care caregivers rotate through 8-hour shifts, so there’s always someone alert, present, and ready to help, day and night. This option is well suited to loved ones who benefit from more active, hands-on support, and it doesn’t require your family to provide separate sleeping arrangements or meals for the caregiver.
Live-In Care — Ridge Home Care caregivers rotate every few days, staying in the home and available whenever your loved one needs them. This option offers steady, familiar companionship from a smaller, consistent team, and asks only that your family provide a place to sleep and meals during the caregiver’s stay.
Caregivers You Can Trust, Day or Night
Ridge Home Care is a licensed and insured home care agency, and every caregiver we place undergoes a thorough background check before joining our team. Having someone dependable in your loved one’s home around the clock brings real reassurance — to them, and to you. Ridge Home Care’s 24-hour and live-in caregivers provide:
- Light housekeeping and laundry assistance
- Around-the-clock help with bathing, toileting, and dressing
- Meal preparation and eating assistance
- Companionship at all hours of the day and night
- Medication reminders
- A reliable, familiar presence your loved one can count on
Benefits of Our 24-Hour Live-In Care
Trust isn’t something we ask you to take on faith. Every Ridge Home Care caregiver is background-checked and thoughtfully matched to your loved one before they ever set foot in the home — because we know the right personality fit matters just as much as reliability.
Whichever type of 24-hour support your family chooses, Ridge Home Care’s goal stays the same: steady, familiar care for your loved one, and real peace of mind for you. Our caregivers bring warmth, patience, and consistency to every shift, so you can rest easier knowing someone dependable is there.

Types of Home Care Services We Offer
Deciding what kind of support your loved one needs can feel like a lot to figure out on your own. Ridge Home Care makes it simple: we build a care plan around your family’s specific circumstances, and provide the caregivers to carry it out — from a few hours a week to full-time, around-the-clock assistance, 365 days a year, including holidays.
Here are the highlights of the in-home services Ridge Home Care caregivers provide:

Assistance with toileting can help prevent urinary tract infections (UTIs), skin breakdown, and falls. Our caregivers are well-versed in the importance of providing physical and emotional support to maintain our clients’ dignity.
