Home Care in
Flatlands & Marine Park
Flatlands and Marine Park are southeastern Brooklyn neighborhoods that share zip code 11234, a waterfront character along Jamaica Bay, and a defining geographic challenge: neither has a subway station. For elderly residents who do not drive — increasingly the majority as the neighborhood's original Irish-American, Italian-American, and Jewish homeowners age into their 80s and 90s — getting to outpatient medical appointments, pharmacy pickups, or hospital follow-ups requires a bus journey that can take over an hour each way. Good Care Agency eliminates that barrier entirely: our nurses, aides, and therapists come to clients' homes, removing the transportation burden from families who are already managing illness. Marine Park borders the largest salt marsh in New York City, a 798-acre wetland that gives the neighborhood an unusual natural character. Flatlands, historically farmland and one of the oldest settled areas of Brooklyn, has evolved from its Italian-American and Jewish origins into a diverse community including Caribbean, Russian-speaking, and South Asian families. Maimonides Health's community needs assessment identifies Flatlands and Canarsie together as having cancer incidence rates higher than the Brooklyn borough average — particularly for women. Brookdale Hospital Medical Center is the closest major hospital for both neighborhoods.
