About Us
Before being founded, our team’s journey in healthcare began in the front lines, serving as both caregivers and nurses.
Our experience on the front lines of healthcare showed us the critical need for proactive care in the home. We witnessed too many hospitalizations that could have been prevented-from falls and injuries to unmanaged long term health conditions.
Having worked with countless families, we’ve seen the emotional and physical toll it takes when a loved one needs support. We know that the need for in home support can often come without a warning, requiring immediate action.
That’s where we come in. We offer flexible support, from providing a much-needed break with our respite care to offering complete, round-the-clock support, so you never have to feel overwhelmed.
Our team is ready to step in and provide the in home care support you and your loved one need, when you need it.
How Care Avenue Support Services Helps Norwalk Families
We’re more than just a home care agency—we’re a trusted local partner. Our caregivers are well trained. We coordinate directly with hospital discharge planners, social workers, and family members to make the home care experience as smooth as possible.
Whether you need care for a few days, several weeks, or longer, we offer:
- Flexible scheduling (hourly, overnight, or 24-hour care)
- Prompt start of care, often within 24 hours of hospital discharge
- Bilingual caregivers familiar with the cultural needs of Norwalk families
- Ongoing communication with medical teams to adjust care as needed
Let us help your loved one live with dignity—and give your family the support you deserve.
