Home Care in
Kensington
Kensington is a small, densely populated Brooklyn neighborhood adjacent to Prospect Park and Borough Park, with a demographic complexity that belies its size. The neighborhood's Church Avenue corridor is one of the most linguistically diverse streets in Brooklyn — Bangladeshi grocery stores, Pakistani restaurants, Russian bakeries, Mexican taquerias, and Polish delicatessens operate within blocks of each other, serving communities whose elderly members have different languages, different health needs, and different cultural expectations for the care they receive. Brooklyn health data for the Borough Park-Kensington corridor identifies food insecurity as a significant concern — food insecurity is especially problematic in Borough Park and Kensington, where approximately 44% of residents rely on SNAP. The intersection of food insecurity, poverty, and immigrant status in Kensington creates a health risk profile similar to the more publicized crises in northern Brooklyn. Maimonides Medical Center is the closest major hospital. Good Care Agency serves Kensington in Urdu, Russian, Spanish, and English — among the few home care providers in this neighborhood equipped to serve its Bangladeshi, Pakistani, Russian, and Latino communities.
