FirstLight Home Care, an award-winning provider of non-medical home care, announced it will open an office in Smyrna to serve residents throughout the area. The new FirstLight location is scheduled to open later this year.

The FirstLight Home Care office will serve area seniors, adults with disabilities, new mothers, those recovering from surgery and other adults in need of assistance. FirstLight caregivers help with many needs – from personal hygiene and household duties such as cooking, cleaning and running errands, to mobility assistance and dementia care.

"There is a growing need in the Smyrna area for the brand of service FirstLight offers," said Jeff Bevis, FirstLight Home Care co-founder and CEO. "We're confident the service by the FirstLight caregivers and this new location will fill the needs of the communities they serve. This will be a great addition to the Smyrna area."

Since opening its first franchise location in 2010, FirstLight Home Care has experienced steady growth and is now operating more than 250 locations in 34 states throughout the U.S.
