When caregivers and their clients connect on a personal level, it enhances the quality of care and creates a more positive experience for everyone involved.

Caring for aging parents can be a rewarding yet challenging journey, especially when they are hesitant to accept assistance.
It’s not uncommon for older adults to feel a sense of pride or independence that makes them resistant to help, even when it’s needed.
As caregivers, it’s important to approach these conversations with empathy and understanding. Listen as Dr. Barry Jacobs, clinical psychologist and national caregiving expert, provides insight to help ease the transition on the ComForConnections podcast: https://ow.ly/Zwuw50WhEN5

I came upon ComForCare by chance. After working in the world of electronics for over 30 years, I decided it was time to move on to something different. By happenstance, I discovered the existence of home care agencies. I knew what it was like to care for an aging parent and had been directly affected by the circumstances that come with the experience. I knew I wanted a company committed to excellence and to the people who partnered with them. ComForCare was a perfect fit.
That was in 2003. Today, the location consistently ranks in the top 10 ComForCare offices and has been successful in providing the best possible care to all of our clients. We are the first home care agency to be labeled a “green” business in California and have been picked as the best senior home care by the readers of Good Times magazine six years in a row through 2018. I am proud of where we are at today and look forward to offering best-in-class service for you or your loved ones.
It’s important to look for the opportunities to do right by everyone. We work with both seniors as well as developmentally disabled individuals. One of our team members has a sibling who is living with Down syndrome. One day, when they were traveling up a set of stairs, the sibling started gasping for breath. I knew we needed to get that person healthier, so we sponsored their gym membership. That small moment led to a bigger change for us as a whole team: Now we all go to the gym and are healthier for it. I look for those opportunities everywhere, with my clients and my team members. We are dedicated to always finding the best possible way to deliver high-quality service to everyone we encounter.
