    Serving Those Who Served: BrightStar Care® for Veterans

    November 2, 2023

    With 3,658 veterans tended to across the country by compassionate and experienced caregivers during 2022, BrightStar has found that our caregivers gain far more than they give. For this reason we at BrightStar Care of Hartford are proud to report that our new owner, Dan McCoy has decided it is time for us to give back to those that have given their all for our great nation. We have started working with our first Veteran client in the northern connecticut area and we are looking forward to helping many more. Dan has spent his life surrounded by veterans. Dan's uncle's on his father's side immigrated to this country and joined our military to show support for their new home. His brother is a veteran, which Dan is always proud to mention. Dan's spends time with his father-in-law learning from all of the stories from his time in the service. He had a great admiration for those who made the greatest sacrifice for American freedom. 

    Please read some of the inspiring stories below, from Veterans around the USA  that other independently owned and operated BrightStars have had the good fortune of assisting.
