Seniors may have conditions such as Alzheimer’s or other forms of dementia that make it unsafe for them to stay at home alone. They may be unable to perform simple tasks such as brushing their hair or cooking their own meals. Other seniors lack the mobility or dexterity they need to do the things they have always done.
Other clients may be recovering from a hospital stay or from an illness or injury. Our caregivers can help them with their household chores and aid them in taking their medications so they can focus on their recovery.
Depending on the needs of the client, we can provide home care in San Diego a few times each week or 24 hours a day, seven days a week to include any of the following:
