Welcome Home

Hello and welcome to Daybreak's new blog!

 It's been one year since the grand opening of our Aiken, SC office.  We've learned a lot this year and we're looking forward to talking with you in the upcoming months about our services, the issues facing older adults, and the families who want the very best care possible for them. 

We'll keep you informed of upcoming events, introduce you to our great employees, and talk about ways your family can plan ahead for care.

We also want you to meet some of the truly amazing people we get to work with.  We enter their homes wanting to help them and they end up helping us. . .helping us see what love, bravery, and perseverence really look like.

Speaking of homes, we have a new one!  Welcome to our new office space, still located conveniently in downtown Aiken, at 1028 Hayne Avenue West.

More room for our staff and more parking for you allow us to continue to offer the highest quality service possible.
