Home Care in
Avon, Connecticut

Havenwood Care provides in-home care for Avon families: personal care, live-in and 24-hour care, companionship, homemaker services, and respite for family caregivers. We are a locally owned, Connecticut-licensed agency (DCP HCA #0002903) based one town over in Farmington, which makes Avon about as close as a service area gets.

Avon is a town where people planned to stay, and most of the families who call us want exactly that: to keep a parent in the home they love rather than move them out of it. That is the job we are built for. Call us and you will get straight answers and exact pricing in one conversation.

Local Knowledge

We Know Avon

Old Avon Village shops in Avon, Connecticut

Avon is a town where roughly one in five residents is 65 or older, well above the national share, and most of them intend to stay right here. Our service area covers all of Avon, from the neighborhoods off Route 44 and Old Avon Village to the streets near Fisher Meadows and the homes along the Farmington Valley Greenway. Care plans we build for Avon families are designed around what makes the town a good place to grow older: the Avon Senior Center on West Avon Road with its classes, lunch program, and health screenings, the Avon Free Public Library, and for a client who likes to be out, a flat stretch of the Greenway or a coffee in the Village shops.

Getting there matters too. Avon's Dial-A-Ride is a genuinely useful town service, and for what it does not cover (evenings, weekends, same-week needs, and standing weekly medical appointments), Corporate Wheelchair Transportation provides wheelchair-accessible rides on your schedule, with a caregiver riding along when needed.

One thing about Avon worth saying plainly: many of its homes are large, with the spare bedroom that live-in care requires. For a lot of Avon families, live-in care is the practical alternative to leaving a much-loved house, at a starting rate of $359 per day.

After a Hospital or Rehab Stay

When an Avon senior is coming home from UConn John Dempsey Hospital one town over, from Hartford Hospital or Saint Francis, or from short-term rehabilitation at Apple Rehab Avon or Avon Health Center, we can have support ready the day they arrive: a caregiver matched and approved, the care plan written, and the first shift scheduled around the discharge. The weeks right after a hip or knee replacement, a stroke, or a hospital stay are when falls and readmissions happen; call us before the discharge date and the gap gets covered.

Often, yes. Live-in care requires a private bedroom for the caregiver, and many Avon homes have one to spare. For families weighing assisted living against staying home, live-in care keeps your loved one in their own house with one-on-one attention, starting at $359 per day. We will tell you honestly whether it fits your situation or whether 24-hour shift care is the safer choice.
Yes. We provide both live-in care, where a caregiver resides in the home, and 24-hour shift care with awake overnight caregivers, throughout Avon.
Dial-A-Ride is a great town service and we encourage families to use it. It runs weekdays 9 to 4, requires booking a day or two ahead, and has limits on recurring weekly medical trips. Our wheelchair-accessible transportation covers what falls outside that: evenings, weekends, short-notice needs, standing weekly appointments, and trips where a caregiver should ride along. Many families use both.
