Hourly Home Care Services in Connecticut
Reliable Hourly Home Care for Seniors Across CT
Some families need help just a few hours a day, whether it’s in the morning, during mealtimes, or in the evening. That’s where our flexible hourly home care services in Connecticut come in. With this hourly service, you decide exactly when and where help is needed, and we’ll match you with a qualified caregiver who’s available on your schedule.
It’s perfect for seniors who want to remain at home but need reliable, part-time assistance from trained hourly caregivers.
What Is Hourly Care?
Hourly care allows your family to receive home support only during the times you need it. Unlike live-in care or full 24-hour care, this hourly option is more flexible and cost-effective, which makes it a good option for those who need short, consistent support throughout the week.
You decide the schedule, whether that’s mornings, afternoons, evenings, or just a few days a week, and we’ll send a trusted hourly caregiver to help.
Hourly home care is especially helpful for:
✔ Seniors returning home after surgery or hospitalization
✔ Individuals with limited mobility or chronic conditions
✔ Seniors who wander or need nighttime supervision
✔ Family caregivers who need short-term relief or support
Looking for more comprehensive support? You may also want to explore our Live-In Care or 24-Hour Care service plans, depending on the level of your loved one’s needs.
What to Expect With Our Hourly Home Care Services
Every family is different, which is why we personalize the service plan to match your needs. You’re in control of the schedule and type of care your loved one receives.

What Hourly Caregivers Can Do for Your Loved One
When you choose hourly home care with The HomeAides, you’re not just hiring a caregiver—you’re gaining a reliable partner in your loved one’s well-being. Our hourly caregivers support a wide range of non-medical needs.
Fall Prevention & Safe Mobility
Falls are a serious concern for older adults. Our hourly caregivers are trained to assist with walking, navigating stairs, and transferring safely in and out of beds, chairs, and bathrooms to reduce the risk of injury.
Medication Reminders
We make sure your loved one takes the right medications at the right time. Our caregivers can offer helpful reminders so your loved one doesn’t miss a dose or take more than one by mistake.
Bathing, Dressing & Personal Hygiene
Daily grooming is important for dignity and health. Our hourly caregivers help with bathing, dressing, oral care, and toileting in a respectful and compassionate way.
Incontinence Care & Bathroom Support
We provide discreet assistance with toileting and incontinence care, helping your loved one stay clean, dry, and comfortable throughout the day.
Meal Preparation & Assistance
Caregivers prepare meals and snacks that align with dietary preferences or restrictions. They can also assist with feeding or encourage regular hydration throughout the day.
Light Housekeeping & Laundry
Keeping the home tidy is part of our hourly care service. We help with vacuuming, dishwashing, changing linens, and doing laundry to maintain a clean, safe environment.
Companionship & Social Connection
Loneliness can affect seniors’ health. Our caregivers engage in conversation, play games, take walks, or simply keep your loved one company, adding joy to their daily routine.
Redirection & Wandering Prevention
For aging seniors, wandering can be dangerous. Our caregivers are trained to provide redirection and create a secure, comforting presence to minimize confusion.

FAQs about Hourly Home Care in Connecticut
How much do home caregivers charge per hour in Connecticut?
Hourly rates for home caregivers in Connecticut typically range from $34.50 to $38.50 per hour, depending on the type of care provided (companion vs. personal care), location, and experience of the caregiver. Agencies like The HomeAides offer transparent pricing and customizable service plans based on your needs.
Is home care cheaper than a hospital?
Yes. Home care is significantly more affordable than hospital stays or skilled nursing facilities. While a hospital stay can cost thousands per day, hourly home care provides a cost-effective solution for seniors who need support but not intensive medical intervention.
Can hourly care be combined with live-in care later?
Yes. If your loved one’s needs increase, hourly home care in Connecticut can transition smoothly into a live-in care arrangement. This flexibility ensures continuity of care and allows clients to remain at home as their level of support changes.
Does Medicare cover caregivers?
Medicare does not cover long-term caregivers for daily personal care like dressing, bathing, or supervision. It only covers short-term, medically necessary home health care services (such as, nursing or therapy) as prescribed by a physician.
Do hourly caregivers work overnight?
Some agencies offer overnight hourly care, typically structured in awake or sleeping shifts depending on client needs. This service is ideal for seniors who need help throughout the night or are at risk of wandering or falls.
