Home Care In Coachella, CA

Home Care Coachella, CA

They say that your golden years are the best years of your life. For most older Americans, that's how it should be - a time to relax, reflect, and live life in a familiar place. After all, senior citizens in the U.S. have worked tirelessly to build a better economy, serve their communities, and raise families.

However, as seniors grow older, completing daily tasks like showering and enjoying activities such as visiting the historic Coachella Valley History Museum gets harder without someone by their side. Unfortunately, many older Americans aren't able to rely on their adult children for help. The reality in today's world is that family members do not have the skills or time to dedicate to caring for their parents. That's where Always Best Care Senior Services comes in.

Our in-home care services are for people who prefer to stay at home as they grow older but need ongoing care that family or friends cannot provide. More and more older adults prefer to live far away from long-term, institutionalized facilities and closer to the place where they feel most comfortable - their home. Home care in Coachella, CA is a safe, effective way to give your loved ones the care they need when they need it the most.

TESTIMONIALS

“Always Best Care Senior Services has been a lifesaver. I have a cousin who lives several hundred miles from me. She has Alzheimer’s and it’s very hard to take care of her from here. I’ve had other care services before and they didn’t work out because they sent a different caregiver every day and it was very confusing and upsetting to my cousin. ABCSS has been fabulous at providing continuous care. My cousin adores her caregiver Melissa. She takes her swimming and shopping etc. Also, I cannot say enough good things about Sandra Mendoza. Because I live far away, it’s hard to know what’s going on. She keeps informed and updates me by email and text message. She calls me if there’s a problem. What more could you ask for?”

As for caregivers Jessica Perry who is beyond the best I’ve ever had. She’s on top of things each day and makes having someone around the house not so bad. She gets 100% my other main caregiver Daisy, is also terrific and smart. Both of these care givers know how to think, be aware of what’s happening and maintain great attitude each day. Zap-Roxie”

“I can’t say enough good things about Always Best Care. They were prompt and courteous, met with me the same day as my Mom was being discharged from the hospital, and I needed to arrange care. Janet was the caregiver provided for my Mother. She was so kind and attentive to my Mom, also very concerned about her safety. She went over and beyond what I would have expected, and my Mom really bonded with her. I also used placement services as my Mother formerly was in assisted living but needed to move to a board and care for more care and monitoring. I was shown several beautiful homes by Bonnie Zwack who was personally invested in finding the right fit for my Mother. She even visited my Mother to ensure a positive transition. Thank you so much ABC! You lifted a huge burden off of my shoulders that at first seemed overwhelming. I’m sharing a picture that Janet helped my Mom color during an activity. Moved me to tears. Sincerely, Linda Devore”

“I just wanted to give Always Best Care a very well deserved 5 star review!! As children of seniors know, it can be a hard decision to entrust others outside of the family to provide love and care for your aging parent. However, Always Best Care of Indian Wells has been incredible in so many ways in helping facilitate home care service for my 100 year old mom. Sandra, their Care Coordinator, is an excellent communicator – patient and kind, resourceful and so very competent. Yvonne, mom’s caregiver, is loving and from our first meeting, she did those “little things” without being instructed that were important and mean so much. (Like checking dates on groceries, asking about parking so as to be considerate of the neighbors, having a routine for where to put things like mom’s keys, etc., and just focusing her attention on little things that were all about mom, etc. etc.) Moses, who installed mom’s AI devices was great as well – all smiles, so friendly and sweet to mom. And Juan, who does scheduling is the best as well….always one step ahead in communicating schedules and everything else. I am very impressed with how well they all work as a team. The most important part, though, is that mom is happy! Thank you ABC!”

“Above and Beyond I was driving in a panic from Washington to California because my mother was in crisis, she has dementia and her partner/care giver was taken to the hospital and not expected to recover. From the moment of contact while driving through mountains with terrible cell service Sandra and Moses took the situation in hand and offered solutions and managed to obtain a nurse for that very night with such short notice of only 3 hours and we needed care for 12 hour shifts. They were so compassionate and supportive and made us feel safe. Mom is 88 years old and can be quite difficult in the best of times, she really liked the nurses and wanted them to come back. Anyone needing Nursing services should call Always Best Care they are top notch. Thank you again for the amazing service!”

What is Non-Medical Senior Care in Coachella, CA?

lm-check

Home is where the heart is. While that saying can sound a tad cliche, it is especially true for many seniors living in America. When given a choice, older adults most often prefer to grow older at home. An AARP study found that three out of four adults over the age of 50 want to stay in their homes and communities as they age.

lm-check

When you begin to think about why, it makes sense. Home offers a sense of security, comfort, and familiarity.

lm-check

The truth is, as we age, we begin to rely on others for help. When a family is too busy or lives too far away to fulfill this role, in-home senior care is often the best solution. Home care services allow seniors to enjoy personal independence while also receiving trustworthy assistance from a trained caregiver.

lm-check

At Always Best Care, we offer a comprehensive range of home care services to help seniors stay healthy while they get the help they need to remain independent. As your senior loved one gets older, giving them the gift of senior care is one of the best ways to show your love, even if you live far away.

Home Care Coachella, CA
Respite Care

Respite Care Services

According to AARP, more than 53 million adults living in the U.S. provide care to someone over 50 years old. Unfortunately, these caregivers experience stress, exhaustion, and even depression. Our respite care services help family caregivers address urgent obligations, spend time with their children, and enjoy nearby activities. Perhaps more importantly, respite care gives family members time to recharge and regroup. Taking personal time to de-stress reduces the risk of caregiver burnout. So, if you've always wanted to eat at the local Carnitas La Piedad Restaurant or visit Liberace House, don't feel bad. Doing so is great for both you and your loved one.

At the end of the day, our goal is to become a valuable part of your senior's daily routine. That way, we may help give them the highest quality of life possible. We know that staying at home is important for your loved one, and we are here to help make sure that is possible.

If you have been on the fence about non-medical home care, there has never been a better time than now to give your senior the care, assistance, and companionship they deserve.

 In-Home Care Coachella, CA

Benefits of Home Care in Coachella, CA

Always Best Care in-home services are for older adults who prefer to stay at home but need ongoing care that friends and family cannot provide. In-home care is a safe, effective way for seniors to age gracefully in a familiar place and live independent, non-institutionalized lives. The benefits of non-medical home care are numerous. Here are just a few reasons to consider senior care services from Always Best Care:

Always Best Care offers a full array of care options for patients at all levels of health. With our trusted elderly care services, your loved one will receive the level of care necessary for them to enjoy the highest possible quality of life.

Aging in Place: The Preferred Choice for Most Seniors

While it's true that some seniors have complicated medical needs that prevent them from staying at home, aging in place is often the best arrangement for seniors and their families. With a trusted caregiver, seniors have the opportunity to live with a sense of dignity and do so as they see fit - something that is unavailable to many older people today.

In-home care makes it possible for millions of seniors to age in place every year. Rather than moving to a strange nursing home, seniors have the chance to stay at home where they feel the happiest and most comfortable.

Here are just a few of the reasons why older men and women prefer to age at home:

How much does a senior's home truly mean to them?

A study published by the American Society on Aging found that more than half of seniors say their home's emotional value means more than how much their home is worth in monetary value. It stands to reason, then, that a senior's home is where they want to grow old.

With the help of elderly care in Coachella, CA, seniors don't have to age in a sterilized care facility. Instead, they can age gracefully in the place they want to be most: their home. In contrast, seniors who move to a long-term care facility must adapt to new environments, new people, and new systems that the facility implements. At this stage in life, this kind of drastic change can be more harmful than helpful.

Institutional care facilities like nursing homes often put large groups of people together to live in one location. On any given day, dozens of staff members and caregivers run in and out of these facilities. Being around so many new people in a relatively small living environment can be dangerous for a seniors' health and wellbeing. When you consider that thousands of seniors passed away in nursing homes during the COVID-19 pandemic, opting for in-home care is often a safer, healthier choice for seniors.

Aging in place has been shown to improve seniors' quality of life, which helps boost physical health and also helps insulate them from viral and bacterial risks found in elderly living facilities.

For many seniors, the ability to live independently with assistance from a caregiver is a priceless option. With in-home care, seniors experience a higher level of independence and freedom - much more so than in other settings like a nursing home. When a senior has the chance to age in place, they get to live life on their own terms, inside the house that they helped make into a home. More independence means more control over their personal lives, too, which leads to increased levels of fulfillment, happiness, and personal gratification. Over time, these positive feelings can manifest into a healthier, longer life.

More independence, a healthier life, and increased comfort are only a few benefits of aging in place. You have to take into consideration the role of cost and convenience. Simply put, it's usually easier and more affordable to help seniors age in place than it is to move them into an institutional care facility. According to the US Department of Housing and Urban Development, seniors who age in the comfort of their homes can save thousands of dollars per month.

In-home care services from Always Best Care, for instance, are often less expensive than long-term solutions, which can cost upwards of six figures per year. To make matters worse, many residential care facilities are reluctant to accept long-term care insurance and other types of payment assistance.

With Always Best Care's home care services, seniors and their families have a greater level of control over their care plans. In-home care gives seniors the chance to form a bond with a trusted caregiver and also receive unmatched care that is catered to their needs. In long-term care facilities, seniors and their loved ones have much less control over their care plan and have less of a say in who provides their care.

 Elderly Care Coachella, CA

Affordable Care

In-home care is a valuable resource that empowers seniors to age in place on their own terms. However, a big concern for many families and their loved ones is how much in-home care costs. If you're worried that in-home care is too expensive, you may be pleasantly surprised to learn that it is one of the most affordable senior care arrangements available.

Typically, hiring an Always Best Care in-home caregiver for a few hours a week is more affordable than sending your loved one to a long-term care facility. This is true even for seniors with more complex care needs.

At Always Best Care, we will work closely with you and your family to develop a Care Plan that not only meets your care needs, but your budget requirements, too. Once we discover the level of care that you or your senior need, we develop an in-home care plan that you can afford.

In addition to our flexible care options, families should also consider the following resources to help offset potential home care costs:

If your loved one qualifies, Medicaid may help reduce in-home care costs. Review your CA's Medicaid program laws and benefits, and make sure your senior's financial and medical needs meet Medicaid eligibility requirements.
Attendance and aid benefits through military service can cover a portion of the costs associated with in-home care for veterans and their spouses.
Many senior care services like in-home care are included in long-term care insurance options. Research different long-term care solutions to find a plan that provides coverage for senior care.
Home care can be included as part of a senior's private insurance plan. Read over your loved one's insurance policy carefully or speak with their insurance provider to determine if in-home care is covered.
Depending on the life insurance plan, you may be able to apply your policy toward long-term care. You may be able to use long-term-care coverage to help pay for in-home elderly care.
 Senior Care Coachella, CA

Compassionate Care. Trusted Caregivers.

When you or your senior loved one needs assistance managing daily tasks at home, finding a qualified caregiver can be challenging. It takes a special kind of person to provide reliable care for your senior loved one. However, a caregiver's role involves more than meal preparation and medication reminders. Many seniors rely on their caregivers for companionship, too.

Our companion care services give seniors the chance to socialize in a safe environment and engage in activities at home. These important efforts boost morale and provide much-needed relief from repetitive daily routines. A one-on-one, engaging conversation can sharpen seniors' minds and give them something in which to be excited.

At Always Best Care, we only hire care providers that we would trust to care for our own loved ones. Our senior caregivers in Coachella, CA understand how important it is to listen and communicate with their seniors. A seemingly small interaction, like a short hug goodbye, can make a major difference in a senior's day. Instead of battling against feelings of isolation, seniors begin to look forward to seeing their caregiver each week.

Understanding the nuances of senior care is just one of the reasons why our care providers are so great at their job.

Unlike some senior care companies, our caregivers must undergo extensive training before they work for Always Best Care. In addition, our caregivers receive ongoing training throughout the year. This training ensures that their standard of care matches up to the high standards we've come to expect. During this training, they will brush up on their communication skills, safety awareness, and symptom spotting. That way, your loved one receives the highest level of non-medical home care from day one.

Assisted Living Referral Services

While it's true that many seniors prefer to age at home, sometimes in-home care isn't the best fit. For those seniors and their families, choosing an assisted living facility makes more sense. Unfortunately, finding the optimal care facility is easier said than done in today's day and age. That's when Always Best Care's assisted living referral services begin to make a lot of sense.

Assisted living is a form of housing intended for seniors who require varying degrees of medical and personal attention. Accommodations may include single rooms, apartments, or shared living arrangements. Assisted living communities are typically designed to resemble a home-like environment and are physically constructed to encourage the independence of residents.


Respite Care Coachella, CA

At assisted living communities, seniors receive help with daily activities such as bathing, dressing, and eating. They may also benefit from coordination of services with outside healthcare providers, and monitoring of resident activities to ensure their health, safety, and well-being. Caregivers who work at assisted living communities can also provide medication administration and personal care services for older adults.

Other services offered within assisted living communities can include some or all of the following:

  • Housekeeping
  • Laundry
  • Recreational Activities
  • Social Outings
  • Emergency Medical Response
  • Medication Monitoring
  • Family Visitation
  • Personal Care
 Caregivers Coachella, CA

At Always Best Care, our representatives can match your senior's emotional, physical, and financial needs with viable assisted living communities nearby. Results are based on comparative data, so you can select the best choice for you or your loved one.

Always Best Care works closely with local senior living communities to gain valuable knowledge that we then use to help seniors and their loved ones make informed decisions. This information can include basic care and rent, resident availability, and services provided. Because Always Best Care is compensated by these communities, we provide senior living referral services at no extra cost to you.

Some of the most popular assisted living communities to consider in our area include the following:

  • Helping Hearts Elder Placement
  • Coachella Senior Center
  • Senior Living Alternatives LLC
  • Senior Care Center
  • Apex Assisted Living & Senior Care Indio CA
  • Assisted Living Locators Coachella Valley
Home Care Coachella, CA

For many seniors, moving into a senior living community revolves around how and when they want to make a transition to more involved care. Some seniors are more proactive about transitioning to independent living. Others choose to remain home until their care needs or other requirements are satisfied. Remember - our staff is here to help. Contact our office today to learn more about assisted living communities and how we can find a facility that exceeds your expectations.

If you have never considered in-home care before, we understand that you and your family may have concerns about your Care Plan and its Care Coordinator.

At the end of the day, we only hire the best of the best at Always Best Care. Whether you need home care in Coachella, CA 24-hours a day or only need a respite for a couple of hours, we are here to serve you.

His dad, Jose Tapia, grew up with lowrider bicycles and in between American and Mexican influences. His shop ‘Benjis’ Bike and Fitz’ in Coachella is a powerful statement of cultural pride.

“During 2020. During the pandemic, I got laid off for work. So we were forced to get creative with our time. My wife and I started talking about it. We said let's sell something,” Jose said.

Baggy jeans, oversized t-shirts, and flannels for men, women, and kids. They’re symbols of what it was like growing up Mexican-American in the 80s and 90s.

“This clothing represents a culture. A culture that we definitely love and we love to keep passing it on to future generations,” Jose said.

But there are more than just Chicano clothing pieces here. Jose also assembles eye-catching lowrider bicycles.

They’re adorned with vibrant, candy-colored paint, and unique patterns, that represent day-to-day neighborhood life.

“I feel like I'm driving a 64 Impala. But on a bicycle, you know. So we route right down the street, we definitely do catch a lot of attention from people,” Jose said.

Vanessa Tapia says the art and culture of the lowrider scene and Chicano fashion has come a long way.

“It was so short and associated with bad stuff. But as you can see, like we're a family business. There's nothing bad going on here. You know, we're just here like doing our thing, trying to bring the lowrider community back together,” Vanessa said.

Today, the family says they're proud they’re helping change the stigma linked to the unique world of self-expression. But more importantly, teaching their son the value of reclaiming their history.

“Make sure that he's also watching his dad building the bike so he can start learning by himself and so he can, you know, make it a hobby and eventually take over the business," Vanessa said.

Showers are expected Saturday and Sunday with the bulk of the storm arriving Monday, according to the National Weather Service.

PALM DESERT, CA — The first significant storm of 2024 is heading into the Inland Empire through Monday, with over an inch of precipitation possible in some locations.

Several troughs of low pressure will spin across the region over a roughly three-day period, producing rain and thunderstorms, the National Weather Service said.

"While intermittent rounds of showers look likely through much of the weekend, there appear to be two favored time frames for heavier and more widespread shower activity: Saturday and Monday," according to the NWS. "Preliminary rainfall totals through the duration of this event look to be a broad swath of 1-2 inches across the coasts and inland valleys, 2-4 inches across the mountains and roughly .25-1 inch across the deserts."

Forecasters said any major snowfall will be above 7,000 feet during most of the storm series. However, temperatures may come down enough Saturday night "for snow to fall down to as low as 5,500-6,000 feet, though any accumulations would be very light and confined to grassy surfaces."

Highways through the San Bernardino National Forest, including state Route 243 through Idyllwild-Pine-Cove, were expected to remain passable.

Prognostication charts published by the NWS indicated the highest likelihood of thunderstorms is Monday morning and afternoon as the tail end of the last trough trundles eastward.

Meteorologists anticipated a flood watch being posted for Monday.

The weather will start to clear Monday night, followed by mostly sunny and drier conditions going into midweek.

In the Riverside metropolitan area, the highs will generally hold in the low 60s for the weekend, with overnight lows in the low 50s.

In the Coachella Valley, the daytime high will creep toward 70 Saturday and Sunday, and lows will be in the low 50s, while in the Temecula Valley, the temperature band will be virtually identical to Riverside metro.

Passenger train project from Los Angeles to Coachella Valley continues to move forward

Driving from Los Angeles to the Coachella Valley may no longer be necessary if a proposed passenger train project materializes.

Officially known as the Coachella Valley Rail, the passenger train would run 144 miles from Union Station in L.A. to the city of Indio in the Coachella Valley.

The train would also make various stops in Orange, San Bernardino and Riverside counties.

Currently, the project is undergoing a second environmental analysis that will examine the proposed project in detail, including the identification of station locations and any infrastructure improvements that may be needed, officials with the Riverside County Transportation Commission told KTLA.

The first environmental review for the project was certified last year.

“The Coachella Valley has experienced tremendous growth over the years. RCTC has undertaken this vital project to connect our region to provide an alternative transportation solution for the Coachella Valley and Southern California,” department officials said.

The department hopes federal and state resources will be available to fund the project’s next phase, which costs about $60 million.

Currently, the department is waiting to see if they can receive $20 million under the federal Consolidated Rail Infrastructure and Safety Improvements Program. Congressmember Ken Calvert, who represents the 41st district of California, also submitted a $5 million request as part of the Community Project Funding program, according to officials.

California’s 41st district stretches across Riverside County, including the cities of Corona, Norco, Lake Elsinore, Wildomar, Canyon Lake, Menifee and Palm Springs.

On the state level, the department has obtained $40 million from various avenues. The total construction costs for the project has yet to be determined but is expected to exceed $1 billion.

The project is still in its early stages of development, so Californians won’t be able to ride the passenger train anytime soon.

The Riverside County Transportation Commission estimates the project could take 10 years to complete. No official opening date has been announced.

“RCTC is working closely with the state and federal partners to seek innovative ways to speed up the process,” department officials told KTLA.

More information about the project can be found here.
