Here’s what some of our clients have shared about their experience with our senior care services:
"As a full-time working daughter, and taking care of your mom; I know how important it is to find the right caregivers. I am so grateful for the exceptional service Home Instead Senior Care (Alameda County) has provided for my mom.
We have used their services for in-home care for the past two years and it has been the best decision we made. We found their staff and caregivers to be some of the most compassionate and skilled people who really understands how to be helpful at difficult times.
I would highly recommend Home Instead Senior Care in Alameda County!"
— Alison Martinez
"The whole process of asking for help to take care of your aging parents is extremely stressful, scary, and intimidating. After some internet research, I came across Home Instead Senior Care Alameda County.
A few quick questions and a few days later we were ready to meet our new helper. Kirely and Greg made the process very easy and answered all my questions and found the right person for our needs. They even reassured us that every family has different needs and personalities, so if the 1st helper doesn’t work out they would continue to find us one that fits. Luckily we didn’t have to go down that road :)"
— Cindy Anzalone
