Rose highlighted how the minute Heather walked into their home she fit into their family. The first day she was home with Rose's husband, who had a perioperative stroke during a high-risk surgery and was in and out of hospitals, she made sure she was providing exactly what the family needed and wanted. She was able to get him into his favorite armchair in his favorite room to simply watch TV, because it was the very first time he had a moment of normalcy outside of the hospital. Heather continued to showcase her compassion by helping him attend his daughter's graduation in another state. Rose highlights how important Heather is to their family. "These little milestones are tremendous markers during what has been an incredibly difficult journey. My husband was told at various times that he would die...Not only is he alive, he is thriving and getting stronger every day! Heather has made this possible."

"Heather's moving nomination letter is one of the many reasons our clients continue to choose BrightStar Care time and time again," said Shelly Sun, CEO and Founder of BrightStar Care. "At BrightStar Care we believe that providing care to your loved ones should be one-of-a-kind, and we are honored to recognize Heather Bailey as this year's Caregiver of the Year as she is the core example of what it means to put your clients first."
