What aging with dignity means to us...

"To "honor the God-given human dignity of the most vulnerable among us". The primary focus of Aging with Dignity is to improve end-of-life care by encouraging people to make medical decisions in advance of a serious illness."

Our caregivers are...

"Trained to be consistently observant of your loved one’s individual needs, including any subtle changes in their vital signs, behaviors or symptoms. Because specially trained caregivers track and report these changes in condition to the Director of Nursing for your local BrightStar Home Care agency, we are able to modify your family member’s personalized plan of care to reduce the likelihood of falls, infection, re-admission to the hospital, medication interactions and other potentially undesirable outcomes."

The care we offer is unique because...

"Choosing someone to care for your family is one of the biggest decisions you’ll ever make. In addition to providing a superior level of care, our caregivers are known for bringing joy and reassurance to those they spend time with. Even as our caregivers and nurses meet your loved one’s functional needs, they also focus on enhancing their quality of life and celebrate the little “wins” that can make each day special."

Important to remember when caring for someone...

"At BrightStar we believe that empathy is important when building relationships in every aspect of life. Communication is a must-have skill for caregivers as they are often at the forefront of their client's life."

What person-centered care means to us...

"At BrightStar Care it is our philosophy to treat the entire person not just the disease type. As a part of our assessments, we gather numerous Person-Centered touchpoints to gain a better understanding of the client including their likes and dislikes as well their life history. This information is included in the Plan of Care so that our clinical team is better positioned to ensure that care is delivered in a manner consistent with the client’s preferences while also being able to bond with them."
