Local Entrepreneurs Open Business Dedicated to Making a Difference in NW Atlanta/Sandy Springs

SANDY SPRINGS, Ga. – Local entrepreneur couple Richard and Anne-Caroline Taylor are fulfilling their dream of making a difference in the lives of local residents by opening BrightStar Care, a homecare and medical staffing agency. This new business will provide a range of compassionate, person-centered medical and non-medical care to people of all ages, from infants to seniors in the safety and comfort of their homes.

BrightStar Care of Northwest Atlanta/Sandy Springs offers a myriad of comprehensive services that meet the highest industry standards and will work to help educate residents on the right questions to ask when searching for an in-home care provider for a loved one. The location provides services for Sandy Springs, Dunwoody, the eastern portion of Marietta and northwest Atlanta.

Prior to owning BrightStar Care, seasoned marketing professional, Anne-Caroline, spent over 20 years working for several highly-renowned, international brands including, Coca-Cola , Nestle and Royal Caribbean & Celebrity Cruise Lines. Richard Taylor, MD, an OBGYN at Piedmont Hospital, comes to BrightStar Care with more than 35 years’ experience in the healthcare industry and is often recognized around town for delivering over 9,000 babies within the metro Atlanta area. After experiencing firsthand the quality care and genuine devotion their daughter received from a BrightStar Care caregiver, the Taylors decided to open a BrightStar Care of their own to help provide local families with the same standard of care and service they received.

“BrightStar Care has impacted our lives in ways we could have never imagined,” said Anne-Caroline. “It’s such a privilege for Richard and I to be able to provide the same level of care to our community and its families in times of need– it truly feels like we were meant to do this and we look forward to continuing to serve our community for many years to come.”

BrightStar Care conducted third-party research that shows that as families seek quality in-home care for their aging loved ones, the most important factors they consider include having a compassionate caregiver they can trust, somebody who understands the unique needs of their loved one, and having qualified, skilled medical professionals overseeing the care. However, the lack of clinical quality standards within the local and national private duty in-home care sector, combined with the public’s lack of knowledge of the industry, can make it challenging for local families confronted with the need for care or professionals looking to select a trustworthy service partner.

Further setting them apart from the competition, the BrightStar Care of Northwest Atlanta/Sandy Springs Registered Nurse Director of Nursing creates unique, personalized plans of care for each client and oversees a professional care team of well-qualified, experienced caregivers to deliver expert, compassionate, and personal care 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. In order to provide the highest standard of care possible, the Taylor’s are looking to add to their experienced clinical team by hiring qualified nurses and caregivers.

The national BrightStar Care franchise received The Joint Commission’s Enterprise Champion for Quality award and is committed to having each of its agencies comply with Joint Commission standards. BrightStar Care also offers all clients access to its CareTogether® program, a free, private secure online caregiving resource.

BrightStar Care of Northwest Atlanta/Sandy Springs is part of a national network of over 300 individually owned and operated private duty home care and medical staffing franchise that provide medical and non-medical services to clients within their homes, as well as supplemental care staff to corporate clients.
