Home Care Available At Brightwood On A Fee Per Service Basis Through Our Partnership With Avila Home Care

Companion Care
From reading a story to accompanying you to a doctor’s appointment, from helping with exercises to taking a walk, attentive companionship is at the heart of what Avila Home Care provides.

Personal Care
Bathing, dressing, skin care, grooming, and morning and bedtime routines, treating you with dignity and respect.

Memory Care
Avila’s experienced Caregivers understand how to love and care for people who have Alzheimer’s or other dementia-related issues, nurturing your loved one’s independence and minimizing agitation and distress.

Medication Reminders
Avila provides gentle reminders to take medicine so that complications don’t arise from missed schedules.

Meal Preparation
Avila helps plan, shop for, prepare and serve meals that are healthy and meet your nutritional needs.

Supportive Services and Light Housekeeping
Avila’s Caregivers will keep your home tidy, sort the mail and read it to you and even do the laundry.

Transportation
Avila’s Caregivers will drive you to doctors’ appointments, the grocery store or a local park for a picnic- wherever you’d like to go!

End of Life Care
Avila’s caregivers have deep experience and extensive training in supporting hospice care, and we work closely with our partners at Gilchrist hospice to provide families with love and extra support.
