Havenwood Care is not an agency that serves Farmington from somewhere else. Our office is on Farmington Avenue, in town. We provide personal care, live-in and 24-hour care, companionship, homemaker services, and respite care for Farmington families as the Connecticut-licensed agency (DCP HCA #0002903) that calls this town home.
Being based here means assessments, caregiver introductions, and supervisory visits happen fast, and when something needs adjusting, the person responsible is minutes away, not managing your account from another county. Call us and you will get straight answers and exact pricing in one conversation.

Every service we offer is available throughout Farmington and Unionville, 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.
Roughly one in five Farmington residents is 65 or older, more than five thousand seniors, and this town takes care of its own. Our service area covers all of Farmington, from the historic Village and the streets off Main Street to Unionville, and every neighborhood between. We know the town the way you only can when you work in it every day: which pharmacy is easiest for a quick pickup, how long the drive to a Westfarms appointment really takes, and where the flat, walkable stretches are for a client who wants their daily walk back.
The senior infrastructure here is genuinely good, and our care plans are built to keep your loved one plugged into it. The Farmington Senior Center on New Britain Avenue in Unionville has a staffed fitness center, Tai Chi and balance classes, and the Services for the Elderly congregate lunches on Mondays and Fridays. The town's Senior Services office runs a Caregiver Support Group and a Low Vision Support Group, and the Tunxis Seniors club has been bringing the town's older residents together since 1969. If you are the family caregiver here, know that the support group pairs well with respite care: one gives you people who understand, the other gives you actual time off.
Getting around is covered from several directions. The town's Dial-A-Ride serves Farmington and Unionville with advance booking, and Services for the Elderly volunteers offer free rides to medical appointments, up to twice a month, with notice, for seniors who can walk in on their own. Our sister company, Corporate Wheelchair Transportation, covers everything those programs cannot: wheelchair users, standing weekly appointments, evenings, weekends, and short-notice trips, with a caregiver riding along when needed. Many Farmington families use all three.
Farmington families have a resource most towns envy: UConn John Dempsey Hospital is right here. When a parent is being discharged from John Dempsey, from Hartford Hospital or Saint Francis, or from short-term rehabilitation at a facility like Amberwoods of Farmington, we can have support ready the day they come home: a caregiver matched and approved, the care plan written, and the first shift scheduled around the discharge. If the hospital is asking what support will be waiting at home, call us before the discharge date. Being based in town, our timeline is usually short.
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.
Our office is on Farmington Avenue. Assessments, introductions, and urgent adjustments happen fast because there is no distance in the way.
Not a franchise routing you through a national call center. The person who builds your care plan answers your calls, and probably shops at the same grocery store you do.
