About Us

BrightStar Care provides ''A Higher Standard'' of care to those in need.

We are family owned and operated by a Registered Nurse, Lisa Marie Swiatkowski, RN, LHRM, CDP who has been in the nursing field for over 25 years and is passionate about helping others and her husband, Jim Boone, retired from the insurance industry after 25 years, providing invaluable help to many of our clients and their families as they weave their way through the financial impact of aging.

BrightStar Care is a private duty home care company providing companion care (meal prep, light cleaning, laundry), personal care (bathing, dressing, grooming), and skilled nursing services (Medication and diabetes management, IVs, tubes, other) to seniors in our community. Service areas include Sarasota, Charlotte and DeSoto Counties.

We pride ourselves in providing the best care to our customers. This is validated by the fact that we are:

• Joint Commission accredited- this holds us to a higher standard of care. JACO is a nationally recognized certification earned by the top health systems like the Mayo Clinic and the Cleveland Hospital proving that we provide the best standard of patient safety and care.
• We have won Best of Home Care Leader, Best of Home Care Employer and Best of Home Care Provider consecutively for the last 4 years (2017-2020) by Home Care Pulse. We are the only company in Southwest Florida to win all three Best of Home Care distinctions for 4 years in a row and this has placed us in the top 4% of all home care agencies nationally.
• We provide 24/7 care all year.
