Gravesend, Brooklyn NY

Home Care in
Gravesend

Gravesend is one of the oldest European settlements in North America β€” founded in 1645 by Lady Deborah Moody, making it the only colonial American town founded by a woman, and one of the first settlements in the New World to guarantee religious freedom. Today that history is a footnote; what defines Gravesend in 2024 is its position at the intersection of southern Brooklyn's most diverse immigrant communities. The neighborhood is home to a large Russian and Ukrainian Jewish population, a significant Syrian and Lebanese Jewish community concentrated around Avenue U and Ocean Parkway, a growing Chinese community, and an established Uzbek and Tajik community from Central Asia. Good Care Agency's office at 2671 Coney Island Ave sits at the northern edge of Gravesend β€” this is literally our home neighborhood, and our team knows it the way neighbors know a neighborhood. South Brooklyn Health and Maimonides Health both serve the community, and the Gravesend corridor falls within the Coney Island-Sheepshead Bay zone that Brooklyn health data identifies as having among the highest rates of potentially preventable cardiovascular and diabetic hospitalizations in the borough. Our multilingual team β€” Russian, Ukrainian, Uzbek, Mandarin, Spanish, and English β€” is built to serve every corner of this community.
