The Steps to Setting Up Home Care

To fully support your family in the process of arranging care, we'll guide you through the steps that comprise our straightforward approach. During the entire journey, our goal will be to provide your loved one with customized home care of the highest quality.

Our process for setting up care includes:

• An initial phone call and overview. Learning more about what we have to offer begins with a call to our local office and an inquiry about scheduling a consultation in the West Los Angeles area.
• A consultation at your loved one's home. We'll reserve time to meet with your loved one and other family members who want to take part in arranging their care during a free, no-obligation consultation.
• A care plan created with your help. After answering your questions during this consultation and gaining insight into your loved one's life and needs, we'll begin laying out a plan and schedule of care that is adapted to their everyday routine.
• A care match that leads to a lasting relationship. We will also match your loved one with their partner in care, a compassionate caregiver from our team chosen based on their personality, availability, and capability to offer the services your loved one needs.

Types of Home Care for Seniors in West Los Angeles

With every senior needing a different level of care than the next, we ensure there are a number of categories of care available for elderly adults throughout their time of aging in place. Below, you can take a look at a quick overview of some of the service types that are most popular with our clients in the West Los Angeles area.

Understanding Personal Care

Whether your loved one's pantry is bare or you've noticed signs that they aren't keeping up with their personal care routines, they may need more physical support than they've previously let on. With personal care, seniors can enjoy physical assistance with a wide range of activities, including sensitive tasks such as taking a shower and using the restroom.

Exploring the Benefits of Respite Care

Burnout is a constant concern for unpaid family caregivers, but one that is also frequently pushed to the side. If you feel like your loved one's needs for care are increasing and you're left with little to no time for anything else in your life, you could likely benefit from support with your caregiving role.

Respite care can give you the time off you need and deserve, without ever having to feel like you are making a compromise when it comes to your loved one's home life.

Lowering Hospital Readmissions Through Transitional Care

When seniors return home after staying in the hospital, the first four weeks present the highest risk. During this vulnerable time, a transitional care provider can play a huge role in helping seniors avoid complications.

We support seniors through our Ready, Set, Go Home transitional care program by offering everything from supervision to physical assistance as they follow through on their doctors' instructions, attend follow-up appointments, and go about their recovery at home.

Keeping Seniors Company Through Companion Care

If your loved one's life at home is starting to feel isolated, you may wish they could benefit from more company. Seniors who live alone are at risk of isolation, which can bring on loneliness, anxiety, and depression, among a number of other negative health factors.

Arranging for a companion care provider to converse and bond with them can enhance their quality of life and give them a bit of support with their everyday activities.

Alzheimer's Care and Dementia Care

The cognitive decline that occurs with various types of dementia and Alzheimer's disease can make living at home an especially challenging endeavor for seniors. Our specialized programs for memory care include aid that is tailored to these specific conditions.

Through the care we provide, seniors can have the opportunity to stay where they feel safest, most comfortable, and most familiar. Care providers can help with everything from supervision and reminders to transportation and setting appointments, while also providing a much-needed presence of stability during confusing moments.
