Delivering a higher Standard.

Delivering A Higher Standard of care has been integrated into everything we do – every day. That’s why we’re committed to following The Joint Commission National Patient Safety Goals®(Opens in a new window). The Joint Commission is a widely recognized organization that accredits the nation’s best hospitals and other major healthcare systems.

When you see The Joint Commission Gold Seal of Approval®, you know that the BrightStar Care location has undergone a detailed on-site review by a Joint Commission expert who confirms that they follow rigorous requirements for quality, safety and care. In addition, BrightStar Care is the only national home care brand that, based on the performance of local offices, consistently earns the Enterprise Champion for Quality award from The Joint Commission.

No matter what at-home services your loved one needs, their care is supervised by a Registered Nurse (RN) from day one. From round-the-clock care to just a few hours of support each week, our nurse-led team creates a plan of care that works for you, your budget, and your family’s unique needs.

Our caregivers work closely with our nurses to keep them informed about any changes to your loved one’s condition so we can reduce the likelihood of a fall or the need for a hospital visit.
