Advantage Home Care in Brooklyn: Trusted In-Home Care Across the Borough
From Bay Ridge to Brighton Beach, Advantage Home Care helps Brooklyn families keep their loved ones safe and independent at home β with caregivers who know the borough and a team that handles the paperwork.
- Advantage Home Care provides in-home care throughout Brooklyn, NYC’s largest and most diverse borough.
- We offer personal care aides, home health aides, waiver support, and care coordination β through Medicaid or private pay.
- Our Brooklyn caregivers reflect the borough’s languages and communities, so care feels familiar from day one.
Brooklyn is home to more than 2.5 million people and dozens of distinct communities, each with its own language, culture, and rhythm. Home care here can’t be one-size-fits-all β and it isn’t with us. Advantage Home Care matches Brooklyn families with trained caregivers who fit their loved one’s needs, routines, and background, so support at home feels natural rather than clinical.
Home Care Services We Provide in Brooklyn
Whatever stage your family is at, we can help with the right level of care:
Our Brooklyn Office
Advantage Home Care is based in Sheepshead Bay — not a call centre in another state. Our Brooklyn headquarters is at 1515 Sheepshead Bay Road, 2nd Floor, Brooklyn, NY 11235, minutes from the B and Q at Sheepshead Bay station. Call 718-375-2707 to speak to a coordinator, or email info@advantagehome.care.
Being local matters more than it sounds. It means our caregivers live in the same neighbourhoods as our clients, our coordinators know which MLTC plans move quickly, and shifts get covered because someone is a ten-minute bus ride away. For the neighbourhood-level view, read our Sheepshead Bay and South Brooklyn guide.
Serving Brooklyn Neighborhoods
Our caregivers support families across the borough, including Bay Ridge, Bensonhurst, Borough Park, Brighton Beach, Sheepshead Bay, Flatbush, Midwood, Canarsie, Crown Heights, Williamsburg, Sunset Park, and beyond. Because our aides come from these same communities, we can match caregivers who speak your family’s language β Russian, Spanish, Mandarin, Cantonese, Yiddish, Haitian Creole, and more β which makes a real difference in daily comfort and communication.
Why Brooklyn Families Choose Us
Local caregivers who stay. We prioritize keeping the same aide with your family, so your loved one builds a real relationship with someone they trust β not a rotating cast of strangers.
We handle Medicaid and MLTC. The enrollment maze is one of the hardest parts of getting care started. Our team guides Brooklyn families through Medicaid approval and MLTC plan selection, and manages the paperwork.
Coordination that continues. A dedicated coordinator stays involved as needs change, so you always have someone local to call.

How Brooklyn Families Pay for Care
Most families receive care through New York Medicaid, usually via an MLTC plan that authorizes weekly aide hours β and many qualify who assume they won’t. For those who don’t qualify or need care right away, private pay home care offers flexible scheduling that can begin within days. We’ll help you figure out which path fits.
