Honoring Veterans with the Care They Deserve

At BrightStar Care South Brooklyn & Upper East Side, we believe that those who served our country deserve to be cared for with dignity, respect, and expert support. As a veteran-owned home care agency, we understand the unique needs of our fellow servicemen and women—and we’re committed to providing compassionate, professional care tailored to each veteran’s journey.

Whether you're recovering from surgery, managing a chronic condition, or simply need help with daily activities, our team of registered nurses, certified aides, and caregivers are here to serve you with the same honor and dedication you’ve shown our country.


What We Offer Veterans

Our RN-led services are customized to meet the specific needs of veterans, including:

  • Personal care support (bathing, dressing, grooming)

  • Skilled nursing care (wound care, medication management)

  • Companionship & supervision

  • Dementia and Alzheimer’s support

  • Post-surgical recovery assistance

  • Transportation to medical appointments

Our care plans are flexible, and we work directly with families, case managers, and the VA to ensure a seamless experience.


A Veteran-Owned Agency with a Mission

Our agency owner served three tours in Iraq after 9/11, and started this company after navigating home care for a beloved family member. That personal experience drives our mission: to bring peace of mind to veterans and their families through reliable, high-quality home care.

We are proud to be Joint Commission accredited, a mark of excellence in safety and care delivery, and we’re deeply rooted in the South Brooklyn and Upper East Side communities.


Accessing VA Home Care Benefits

Many veterans qualify for home care services through the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA). These benefits can cover personal care, skilled nursing, respite care, and more—often at no cost to the veteran.
