Home Care in
West Hartford, Connecticut

Havenwood Care provides in-home care for West Hartford 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 means West Hartford is not the edge of our territory. It is our backyard.

When you call, you reach a decision-maker who can quote exact pricing in one conversation, and care can typically start within days of your in-home assessment, anywhere from Bishops Corner to Elmwood to West Hartford Center.

Local Knowledge

We Know West Hartford

Shops and streetscape in West Hartford Center, Connecticut

Home care works better when the agency knows the territory, and this territory is ours. West Hartford has one of the largest senior populations in the region, with more than twelve thousand residents aged 65 or older, and our service area covers every neighborhood they live in: the condos near Blue Back Square and West Hartford Center, the homes of Elmwood and Bishops Corner, and the streets around Westfarms.

The town gives its seniors real infrastructure, and our care plans are designed to keep your loved one plugged into it. West Hartford runs two senior centers, Elmwood on New Britain Avenue and Bishops Corner on Starkel Road, with free membership for residents and a calendar full of classes, lunches, and events. Add the libraries and the shops and restaurants of the Center, and there is a full week available to a senior who can get to it. For a parent who no longer drives, our wheelchair-accessible transportation keeps those places on the weekly calendar instead of in the past tense.

After a Hospital or Rehab Stay

When a West Hartford senior is coming home from Hartford Hospital, Saint Francis Hospital, or UConn John Dempsey Hospital, or from short-term rehabilitation at the Hebrew Center for Health and Rehabilitation or West Hartford Health and Rehabilitation 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 hospital or rehab stay are when falls and readmissions happen; if the discharge planner is asking what support will be waiting at home, call us before the discharge date.
