It's no secret, most of us would like to stay in our own home as we age. Yet, sometimes our loved ones just need a little extra help to remain comfortable at home. That's where Always Best Care can help....we are dedicated to exceeding expectations....always
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 Landmarks on Del Mar 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 Del Mar, CA is a safe, effective way to give your loved ones the care they need when they need it the most.

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.
When you begin to think about why, it makes sense. Home offers a sense of security, comfort, and familiarity.
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.
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.
To give our senior clients the best care possible, we offer a full spectrum of in-home care services:
If your senior loved one has specific care needs, our personal care services are a great choice to consider. Personal care includes the standard caregiving duties associated with companion care and includes help with tasks such as dressing and grooming. Personal care can also help individuals with chronic conditions like diabetes.
Common personal care services include assistance with:
Sometimes, seniors need helpful reminders to maintain a high quality of life at home. If you or your senior has trouble with everyday tasks like cooking, our home helper services will be very beneficial.
Common home helper care services include assistance with:
Using this kind of care is a fantastic way to make life easier for you or your senior loved one. At Always Best Care, our talented caregivers often fill the role of a companion for seniors. That way, older adults can enjoy their favorite local activities, such as visiting Powerhouse Park with friends while also receiving the care they need daily or weekly.
Common companionship services include:
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 Pacifica Del Mar or visit Long-Waterman 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.
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:
According to AARP, 9 out of 10 seniors prefer to age in place within the comfort of their own home. With in-home care, seniors have a way to stay at home, receive the care they need, and maintain a sense of independence, improving overall wellness.
If you or a member of your family have assumed the role of caregiver for your senior loved one, you know how stressful the job can be. Between caregiver burnout and constant worry, being a family caregiver is hard. In-home care relieves your burden and gives you peace of mind knowing that your older family member is in expert hands.
Unlike nursing homes, where the staff and residents rotate frequently, seniors can foster new friendships and build bonds with their caregiver. Seniors who socialize on a regular basis are often happier, which fosters positivity and leads to increased wellbeing.
No two seniors need the same kind of in-home care assistance. That is why each of our Care Plans is tailored to meet our client's individual needs. We offer plans that cover everything from light housekeeping to more involved duties like transportation to doctor's appointments. Our Care Coordinators will work closely with you to develop a personalized plan to ensure your senior's needs are exceeded.
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.

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.
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 Del Mar, 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.
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:
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 Del Mar, 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.
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.
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:
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:
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.
The first step in getting quality in-home care starts with a personal consultation with an experienced Always Best Care Care Coordinator. This initial consultation is crucial for our team to learn more about you or your elderly loved one to discover the level of care required. Topics of this consultation typically include:
A discussion of your needs and how our trained caregivers can offer assistance in the most effective way
A draft of your care plan, which includes highly detailed notes and a framework for the care that you or your senior will receive
Discuss payment options and help coordinate billing with your insurance provider
Our caregivers are trained to spot changes that clients exhibit, like mental and physical decline. As your trusted senior care company, we will constantly assess and update your Care Plan to meet any new emotional, intellectual, physical, and emotional needs.
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. To help give you peace of mind, know that every team member and caregiver must undergo comprehensive training before being assigned to a Care Plan.
At the end of the day, we only hire the best of the best at Always Best Care. Whether you need home care in Del Mar, CA 24-hours a day or only need a respite for a couple of hours, we are here to serve you.
When you're ready, we encourage you to contact your local Always Best Care representative to set up a Care Consultation. Our Care Coordinators would be happy to meet with you in person to get to know you better, discuss your needs, and help put together a personalized Care Plan specific to your needs.

Hotels in Del Mar, California, offer visitors the best of San Diego, including proximity to a popular beach, fantastic dining and boutique shopping, nearby hiking, and other outdoor activities.
Visitors, as well as locals looking for staycations, choose Del Mar hotels also for their charm.
Del Mar is a small beach city about 20 miles north of San Diego. East of its zip code is a section loosely referred to as East Del Mar, Del Mar Heights, or Carmel Valley. I mention a few hotels here.
Speaking of location, Del Mar’s is central with easy freeway access (though you’ll need to avoid rush hour) to popular attractions including the San Diego Zoo, Balboa Park, and the Gaslamp Quarter in the south to LEGOLAND, Carlsbad, and the San Diego Zoo Safari Park in the north — if you can bear to leave one of these hotels.
Reminiscent of a luxury Mediterranean estate, the Fairmont Grand Del Mar is located on 400 acres in the Los Peñasquitos Canyon Preserve just a few miles from the Pacific Ocean on Del Mar’s east side.
The hotel is a AAA Five Diamond and Forbes five-star property and one of the best luxury hotels in San Diego. It’s the largest resort on this list with the most amenities. Some include a Tom Fazio-designed private golf course, an award-winning luxury day spa, four pools, and San Diego’s only Michelin-starred restaurant, Addison.
Fairmont Grand Mar is also a very popular San Diego family hotel with its Explorer’s Club, a year-round supervised kids’ club, a main pool with underwater music, and a sand play area. It offers complimentary transportation to the Del Mar beach at 18th Street, one of the best San Diego beaches, and provides guests with beach chairs, umbrellas, towels, and bottled water.
If you seek a couples retreat, book one of the adults-only Signature Rooms surrounding the adults-only pool.
One of the more upscale hotels in Del Mar CA, the AAA Four-Diamond L’Auberge Del Mar overlooks the ocean and offers a resort-like experience in a boutique hotel.
All guestrooms feature fully stocked minibars, coffeemakers, plush bathrobes, marble bathrooms, and private patios or balconies, some with ocean views.
L’Auberge Del Mar has onsite restaurants, including Coastline with ocean views and The Living Room with live music, but is across the street from Del Mar Plaza with its restaurants and shops. The hotel is extremely pet-friendly and offers a menu tailored specifically to dogs.
L’Auberge Del Mar is across the street from the beach but still one of the best San Diego beach hotels with a private walking path directly to the beach.
The resort fee gives guests access to beach gear and a beach valet seasonally, lit tennis courts and equipment rental, beach cruisers, a 24-hour fitness center, and a complimentary shuttle within a 1-mile radius to other things to do in Del Mar or adjacent Solana Beach. The spa is also fantastic.
The Del Mar Beach Hotel is a standout choice, as it is one of the only hotels in Del Mar, CA on the beach. Dipping your toes into the ocean and laying on the beach are just steps away!
This boutique hotel features newly renovated guestrooms, a private oceanfront sun deck, and shared barbecue and picnic areas for hotel guests. Guestrooms include queen or king pillowtop beds, large flatscreen TVs, complimentary WiFi, mini-refrigerators, coffeemakers, and air conditioning.
Parking is complimentary, and the cool hotel in Del Mar provides complimentary beach chairs, towels, umbrellas, and boogie boards for guests to enjoy. Oh, and you get a complimentary welcome drink from their super cool wine dispenser.
Some of the hotel’s guestrooms, depending on which wing they are in, have full ocean views. You can also order to go from the Poseidon restaurant next door (which I love).
Situated atop sweeping cliffs overlooking the Pacific Ocean with Del Mar Village just on the other side, Wave Crest Resort is in an ideal location among hotels in Del Mar, CA. The resort, which is actually a residential community with accommodation rentals, features private studios, 1- and 2-bedroom suites, and bungalows, each with an ocean view. All of the units have kitchenettes with microwaves, mini-refrigerators, and coffeemakers.
Wave Crest Resort features an outdoor pool and hot tub with lush tropical landscaping and 24-hour front desk access. Guests can swim and enjoy ocean views.
A well-maintained trail leads from the resort directly to the white sand beach below. Del Mar Village’s dozens of charming shops and restaurants are just two blocks away, making it an easy walk.
The boutique Hotel Indigo San Diego Del Mar embraces Del Mar’s ocean and horseracing cultures. The hotel features a spa with marine-centric therapies such as massages, wraps, and facials, while the Ocean View Bar & Grille serves up locally sourced dishes and beers.
There are two outdoor pools, and the hotel is about a 15-minute walk to Del Mar Plaza restaurants and the popular Del Mar City beach.
Hotel Indigo welcomes pets for a small, non-refundable fee, which is fantastic because you can take them to Del Mar Dog Beach.
Recently renovated guest rooms include standard and premium rooms, as well as suites, and some have private balconies and ocean views. Amenities include Aveda bath products, local California coffee, and complimentary wifi.
There are 24-hour fitness and business centers, and self-parking is complimentary in either the hotel’s lot or underground garage.
There aren’t many hotels in Del Mar CA on the beach, but the Best Western Premier Hotel Del Mar is extremely close, just two short blocks from the ocean. The quaint boutiques, restaurants, and art galleries of Del Mar Village are also just a short stroll away.
All Best Western Premier Hotel Del Mar guestrooms were recently renovated and feature premium Serta mattresses and designer bedding, large HDTVs, coffeemakers, complimentary WiFi, and balconies overlooking the resort-style garden and pool. Some rooms also feature an ocean view.
Cafe Del Mar, the hotel’s on-site restaurant and lounge, offers local California fare for every meal of the day. The hotel also offers several guest packages, including surf packages for guests to experience water sports or golf packages at nearby Torrey Pines.
Conveniently located adjacent to the Del Mar Racetrack, there are other things to do within walking distance of the Hilton San Diego/Del Mar. There’s Pelly’s minigolf next door, The Fish Market restaurant, Pamplemousse restaurant (another local favorite), and even Viewpoint Brewing a little further afield.
Guests also enjoy the outdoor area, which features a heated pool and two hot tubs, and the CoastalKitchen restaurant, which offers outdoor dining, cozy fire pits, daily happy hour specials, live music, and brunch on weekends.
Hilton San Diego/Del Mar is also dog-friendly. The hotel has a dog run and even offers pets a welcome gift. Guestrooms feature Serenity beds and complimentary WiFi, and there are available upgraded rooms with patios or balconies. It’s just off the I-5 freeway.
This hidden gem in Del Mar consists of just five guestrooms, but it offers an abundance of unique amenities. The Secret Garden Inn has a fantastic location in the heart of many shopping and dining options and within a short walk to the beach.
No guest room at the Secret Garden Inn is the same. To give you an idea, the Rose room features a whirlpool tub and private balcony with partial ocean view, while the Penthouse is a 2-bedroom unit with a large ocean view patio, outdoor jacuzzi, and fireplace.
The courtyard at the Secret Garden Inn is also available for private parties or special events.
Set right in the heart of the charming Del Mar Village with plenty of dining and shopping options, Les Artistes Inn offers an exceptional hotel experience. It’s affiliated with Secret Garden Inn.
Each guestroom is uniquely designed based on the artwork of famous artists. The Botero room features a rear deck overlooking the property’s garden, the De Lempicka room offers a whirlpool bathtub and ocean view with a rear deck, the Monet room is decorated in a French country style, and the Vettriano room boasts skylights and an exposed wood beam ceiling, a fireplace, a walk-in shower, and an ocean view.
Les Artistes Inn is pet-friendly with a pet deposit, and beaches, including Dog Beach, are just a short walk away from the hotel. Self-parking at Les Artistes Inn is free.
San Diego Marriott Del Mar is a top choice among hotels in Del Mar (especially for Marriott Bonvoy members and business travelers) because of its convenient location, Arterra restaurant (great happy hour), and modern amenities.
This hotel is located just east of the I-5 freeway but also a short drive on surface streets to Torrey Pines State Nature Reserve, Del Mar Village, and the beautiful beaches.
Guestrooms feature hardwood floors, premium mattresses and bedding, in-room Netflix streaming on large flat-screen TVs, iHome docks, Wi-Fi, and workstations. Arterra offers a daily breakfast buffet, lunch, dinner, and a sushi bar, and there is a 24-hour fitness center and outdoor heated pool and hot tub.
The San Diego Marriott Del Mar also boasts over 20,000 feet of meeting or event space and is also pet-friendly. I’ve stayed here and the rooms are nice, it’s just in East Del Mar so in more of a residential area and not near the best things to do in Del Mar which is why it’s not ranked higher on this list. If you need to be in Carmel Valley, it’s a great choice.
