Home Care Assistance Opens La Jolla Location
This is the fourth San Diego location for Home Care Assistance. The business provides part-time, full-time and live-in home care for seniors.
Many seniors want to stay out of permanent care facilities and reside in their homes as long as possible. Yet as people age, things such as driving, dressing or even preparing meals can become much harder tasks.
This is where Home Care Assistance comes in. Founded in 2002 by Clinical Psychologists Jim and Kathy Johnson, Home Care Assistance provides part-time, full-time, and 24-hour in-home care options for their clients. All of their caregivers undergo rigorous background testing and are provided opportunities for ongoing training in Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson's disease, dementia, hospice care and other numerous areas of care.
Anyone can stop into Home Care Assistance's storefront, which opened last month, to learn more about its services.
