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 Berniece Bennett Park in Westlake Village, CA 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 Westlake Village, 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 Westlake Village Community Park in Westlake Village, CA 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 ONYX or visit Jungleland Historical Marker, 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 Westlake Village, 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 Westlake Village, 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 Westlake Village, 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.

TeenHealthRx offers exclusive, physician-led concierge obesity care for California teens, with tailored treatment plans, dedicated support, and a family-centered approach
WESTLAKE VILLAGE, CA · United States (PRUnderground) October 23, 2026
As adolescent obesity remains a significant public health concern, California Trim Clinic is calling for a shift away from weight-related stigma and toward individualized medical care for teenagers.
Through TeenHealthRx, its physician-led concierge medical weight-management program, the Westlake Village-based clinic provides eligible families throughout California with virtual medical evaluations, ongoing clinical oversight, and structured parental support.
The initiative emphasizes a distinction often overlooked in conversations about teenage weight: obesity is a complex medical condition, not a failure of willpower or personal discipline.
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), 19.7% of U.S. children and adolescents ages 2–19 had obesity during 2017–March 2020. Among adolescents ages 12–19, prevalence reached 22.2%.
The CDC also reports that childhood obesity was associated with an estimated $1.3 billion in annual U.S. medical costs, expressed in 2019 dollars, underscoring its significance beyond individual weight concerns.
Obesity is influenced by biological, genetic, behavioral, and environmental factors. During adolescence, medical decisions must also account for physical growth, developmental changes, and emotional well-being.
For parents, distinguishing typical developmental changes from weight-related medical concerns can be difficult. California Trim Clinic encourages families to seek qualified medical guidance rather than relying on restrictive diets, social media advice, or assumptions about personal discipline.
TeenHealthRx is overseen by Dr. Lynda Szczech, MD, who evaluates each teenager's medical history, growth, development, and overall health before determining whether medical weight-management treatment is appropriate.
A defining feature of the concierge program is its structured weekly check-ins for parents and teenagers, designed to support communication, track progress, and identify concerns requiring clinical attention.
The program also provides individualized treatment planning, ongoing safety monitoring, secure communication, and prescription coordination when medically indicated.
Treatment recommendations prioritize long-term health rather than appearance-based goals or rapid weight loss.
Headquartered in Westlake Village, California Trim Clinic offers TeenHealthRx virtually to eligible families across California, including Los Angeles, San Diego, San Francisco, Sacramento, San Jose, Fresno, and surrounding communities.
The virtual model allows families to receive physician-guided evaluations and follow-up without frequent travel to a medical office.
Parents can learn more at TeenHealthRx.com and schedule a free discovery call to discuss services and pricing.
A subsequent $99 physician consultation allows Dr. Szczech to assess medical eligibility and recommend appropriate next steps.
California Trim Clinic is a medical weight-management and wellness clinic headquartered in Westlake Village, California. Its TeenHealthRx concierge program provides adolescent medical weight management through individualized evaluations, physician oversight, clinical support, and parental involvement.
Media Contact: California Trim Clinic | Westlake Village, CA | 1-805-795-6783
A consultation does not guarantee medication approval or a prescription. Treatment eligibility, medication selection, and monitoring requirements are determined by the treating physician. Not all adolescents qualify for medication. Treatment risks and results vary.

For more than 25 years, Southern California Reproductive Center (SCRC) has been helping patients build families through advanced fertility care grounded in medical expertise, individualized treatment and a physician-led approach. Founded in 2000 by reproductive endocrinologists Dr. Mark Surrey and Dr. Hal Danzer, SCRC has grown from a single Beverly Hills practice into one of the most established fertility practices in the United States, now serving communities throughout Southern California.
In August 2026, SCRC reached another milestone with the opening of a new satellite location in Westlake Village. Located within CURE Medical at the Center for Health & Wellbeing at the Four Seasons Hotel Westlake Village, the new location brings SCRC's reproductive care closer to patients in the Conejo Valley and surrounding communities.
The expansion reflects a simple idea that has remained central to SCRC since its founding: Fertility care should be both highly specialized and accessible to the people who need it.
“This is an exciting moment for our practice and for the patients we serve,” said Dr. Mark Surrey, Co-Founder of SCRC. “Expanding to Westlake Village reflects our ongoing commitment to making world-class fertility care more accessible across Southern California. We are proud to grow from a foundation of physician-led values that have guided this practice from the beginning.”
Bringing Care to the Conejo Valley
Fertility treatment often involves frequent appointments for bloodwork, ultrasounds and other monitoring. While advanced treatment may be concentrated at a specialized fertility center, the logistical demands of traveling back and forth can add another layer of stress to an already emotional process.
SCRC's Westlake Village location is designed to address that challenge. It will serve as a central monitoring point for SCRC patients from Santa Barbara and Beverly Hills, allowing them to complete bloodwork and ultrasound monitoring closer to home during treatment cycles. New patients can also begin their care at the Westlake Village location, with consultations available either in person or virtually.
The new location is part of a broader Southern California network that includes SCRC offices in Beverly Hills, Santa Barbara, Pasadena and Ventura. Together, these locations allow patients to receive local monitoring while remaining connected to the same physician group and SCRC's established laboratory and clinical infrastructure.
“We built this practice one patient at a time, and that approach has never changed,” said Dr. Hal Danzer, Co-Founder of SCRC. “Our Westlake Village location is a reflection of where we are headed, a physician-led practice continuing to grow in a way that puts patients first. We’re excited to bring our care closer to communities that have long needed it.”
The Westlake Village location is situated within CURE Medical at the Center for Health & Wellbeing at the Four Seasons Hotel Westlake Village, a setting focused on individualized medical and wellness experiences. SCRC's presence there extends the practice's physician-led reproductive care into one of the region's premier wellness destinations.
A Personalized Approach to Fertility Treatment
Although technology has transformed reproductive medicine, SCRC believes that successful fertility care starts with understanding the individual patient.
“Fertility care is not one-size-fits-all, and it shouldn't be treated that way,” is a principle that guides the practice. Two patients may have the same diagnosis on paper but require very different approaches based on their biology, medical history and personal goals.
SCRC's physicians work with patients to develop individualized treatment plans and explain the reasoning behind those recommendations. The goal is for patients to understand their options and make informed decisions rather than simply follow a predetermined protocol.
That philosophy is reflected in the practice's physician-owned structure. SCRC was founded by physicians and remains physician-owned today. Its medical team includes Dr. Mark Surrey, Dr. Hal Danzer, Dr. Carolyn Alexander, Dr. Susan Maxwell and Dr. Diana Chavkin, all reproductive medicine specialists committed to individualized patient care.
The physicians also hold clinical faculty appointments at UCLA and Cedars-Sinai Medical Center, bringing academic and clinical experience to their work.
Comprehensive Reproductive Services Under One Practice
SCRC offers a broad range of fertility services designed to meet patients at different stages of their reproductive journeys. These include in vitro fertilization (IVF), IUI, egg freezing and fertility preservation, donor egg treatment and other forms of third-party reproduction, including gestational surrogacy.
The practice also provides male fertility evaluation and treatment, diagnostic fertility testing, genetic testing and preimplantation genetic testing, as well as advanced reproductive and minimally invasive surgery.
For couples from all walks of life, SCRC offers family-building options including IVF, reciprocal IVF, donor gametes and surrogacy. The practice also works with single parents by choice and intended parents pursuing donor or gestational-carrier arrangements.
Patients may come to SCRC for many different reasons, including unexplained infertility, recurrent pregnancy loss, tubal factor infertility, endometriosis, ovarian dysfunction, diminished ovarian reserve or male factor infertility. Others seek fertility preservation to maintain future options, including those facing medical treatments that may affect fertility.
Expertise Without the Distance
SCRC's physicians say patients consistently value two things: the practice's level of expertise and the personal nature of its care.
Patients are supported by care coordinators who understand their history, questions are answered in accessible language and the team strives to ensure that patients feel known rather than processed through a system.
That emphasis on continuity extends to SCRC's Beverly Hills flagship location, which houses the practice's own assisted reproductive technology (ART) laboratory. Keeping embryology and patient care under the same roof allows the clinical and laboratory teams to communicate directly about each case.
The laboratory, combined with SCRC's depth of experience in reproductive medicine, provides an important foundation for the practice's IVF and related services. SCRC's physicians have practiced through decades of advances in reproductive medicine while continuing to invest in new technologies and treatment approaches.
Looking Ahead
As SCRC enters its next chapter, the Westlake Village expansion represents both growth and a continuation of the practice's original mission.
The goal is not simply to add another location, but to make specialized fertility care more accessible while preserving the physician-led, individualized approach that has defined SCRC since 2000.
For patients throughout the Conejo Valley, Santa Barbara, Ventura and greater Southern California, the new Westlake Village location offers another point of access to a fertility practice with more than two decades of experience.
At its core, SCRC's message remains straightforward: Every patient deserves the opportunity to understand their fertility options and pursue the path to family building that is right for them.

A rabid raccoon found in an affluent Los Angeles County city is causing concern for the state of rabies in California.
The Los Angeles County Department of Public Health announced in an Oct. 5 news release that it was investigating a rabies-positive raccoon in Westlake Village, a city on the border of Los Angeles and Ventura counties.
The raccoon was found in a backyard and reportedly appeared sick but not aggressive toward people, the release says. One dog with up-to-date vaccinations and four people at a worksite may have been exposed to the animal and are following up with care.
Westlake Village is an affluent city in western Los Angeles County, bordering Ventura County near Thousand Oaks and Malibu
The recent case is the first detected in LA County since 1973; the last non-bat animal was a skunk in Long Beach in 2014.
While public health authorities are still investigating the infection's possible origin, they believe a bat likely infected the raccoon.
Rabies-positive bats have increased across California, with Los Angeles and Ventura counties seeing an uptick over the summer. This year alone has broken records for the county, with 70 rabid bats confirmed.
With an uptick in rabies exposure, what should Californians do if exposed?
Before heading out into nature, we understand we have to run through a mental checklist that includes mosquito repellent, sunscreen, and extra water. To protect ourselves and others from possible rabies exposure, public health officials advise the following.
Rabies is one of the deadliest viruses known, but it is also one of the most preventable after an exposure. Here's what to know:
