Home Care in Plano TX
Plano is one of the most well-resourced cities in North Texas — and when a family member needs home care, that means access to some of the finest hospitals, specialists, and senior living communities in the region. BrightStar Care of Plano provides Joint Commission Accredited, Registered Nurse-supervised home care for seniors, adults, and medically complex children throughout Plano, serving families from the Legacy West corridor to Willow Bend, from West Plano to the neighborhoods near Medical City Plano and Texas Health Presbyterian.
What sets BrightStar Care apart from the many non-medical agencies operating in Plano is our full clinical continuum. We provide not only companion care and personal care, but also skilled nursing, wound care and wound VAC therapy, IV therapy, pediatric private duty nursing, in-home lab draws, feeding tube management, and ostomy care — all under the supervision of a Registered Nurse. No other home care agency in the Plano market matches this clinical depth.

It holds Magnet recognition for nursing excellence and has been recognized among America's 250 Best Hospitals. Texas Health Presbyterian Hospital Plano is a Comprehensive Stroke Center with advanced neuroscience, cardiology, orthopedics, and women's services — currently expanding with an 8-story tower adding 168 beds, an upgraded Emergency Department, and enhanced specialty care.

For families with children, Children's Medical Center Plano at 7601 Preston Rd is the first full-service pediatric hospital in the Metroplex located north of Dallas.

Our pediatric nursing team coordinates directly with Children's Medical Center Plano discharge planners for medically complex children returning home.
