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.
Or call us. We will explain your options and exact pricing in one conversation.
Every service we offer is available throughout Avon, delivered by background-checked caregivers and built around a written care plan your family approves.
Through our sister company, Corporate Wheelchair Transportation, we also arrange wheelchair-accessible transportation to appointments and outings, with a caregiver accompanying when needed.
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.
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.
Our rates are the same across Hartford County, and unlike most agencies, we publish them:
| Care | Starting Rate |
|---|---|
| Companion-level care (4+ hour visits) | From $34/hour |
| Personal care (4+ hour shifts) | From $39/hour |
| 12-hour shifts (personal care) | From $26/hour ($312 per shift) |
| Live-in care | From $359/day |
Rates are starting points, confirmed in your first phone call, before any home visit. A 10-hour weekly minimum applies to hourly care. Long-term care insurance is welcome; we help you verify benefits and provide the documentation your insurer requires.
