“I highly recommend Always Best Care for every aspect from the ones seeking care for a loved one or themselves, all the way to the ones seeking an opportunity to care for a senior. I personally worked for ABC, and throughout my years with them I had the pleasure of interacting with the seniors as well as with the amazing caregivers. From the stories of a much more simpler time in the elders life to the reasons from a caregiver wanting to truly care for the seniors. (Most reasons are personal to them that have impacted their life and heart). This is truly a caring company with exceptional professional staff. It's hard to find a company that demonstrates both of those traits....”

“I cannot say enough good things about Always Best Care in the South Bay. I was lucky to be referred to ABC when my Father suddenly needed in-home care several years ago and I hired ABC again a few months ago when my friend needed in-home care. The learning curve is steep when a family member is no longer independent. Having reliable, caring and professional caregivers is invaluable in getting through these challenges. Hiring the caregivers from ABC allowed me to be the "daughter" again. I absolutely could not have cared for my beloved Father or my dear friend without ABC by my side!”

“Always Best Care agency has been wonderful to work with. The caregivers they have provided to stay with my dear friend, who has dementia, have been outstanding. My husband, an MD, and I, an RN, have rather high standards and have found all of the caregivers to be professional, caring and extremely reliable (24/7 care in this case) They go above and beyond expectations. I have felt safe with the caregivers,as they are also down-to-earth; caring people. Dr. David Hart is the main point person in this family-run agency and he is not only a very caring person, he is extremely intelligent in his communication, yet very down-to earth at the same time. He is responsive to any issues that arise immediately…not only for the client, but also to his caregivers, who he genuinely cares about. That is perhaps why he attracts and retains such stellar employees, We feel very lucky to have found ABC Senior Care services. Ilene Watson, RN and Dr. Walter Watson,MD, Manhattan Beach, CA”

“Carrie, David, and their team are terrific to work with. Carrie has been a lifesaver by helping us to quickly find a wonderful 24/7 board and care facility for our loved one who is suffering from both advanced dementia and a broken, severe arthritic neck. They have provided very capable temporary care givers to us to help with taking our loved one to doctor's appointments and during the time our loved one was being treated in the hospital. David has thoroughly educated us on all aspects of dementia and counseled the family members to help sort out their emotions during these difficult times. We strongly recommend Always Best Care South Bay to anyone needing advise, help, and services to find care facilities, care givers, and/or counseling.”

“From the moment I first spoke to Mark Wecker at Always Best Care, he was kind, caring and extremely knowledgeable. He made sure to ask all the right questions to help my siblings and me find the perfect place for our father who had very advanced Parkinson's Disease. He took us to places that fit the high quality we were looking for and in our budget range. Mark showed genuine concern for us and my father. And he helped us navigate through a challenging situation. We made a great decision based on his expert advice. Unfortunately, my father passed away before we could bring him to LA. But I will always be grateful for the detailed attention we received from Mark and Always Best Care.”

“My son and I have received family counseling from Dr. Hart for nearly two years. We both suffer from PTSD, among other mental disabilities, and have been seen by a number of therapists over the years. We have found Dr. Hart’s care to be among the most helpful. He is kind, understanding, and patient. Rather than employing long term, traditional psychotherapy or other limited methods exclusively, he uses different approaches to break through a person’s natural resistance. He suggests interpretations of feelings and actions, asks questions that show real insight, and then gives practical and usually appropriate advice that can be accepted or discussed further. He has treated us with respect and even with a non-intrusive, kind of professional affection. We would recommend him to friends and family without hesitation.”

“I'm glad I attended Dr. Hart's caregiver support workshop which focused on Alzheimer's disease. I knew then Always Best Care would be the right agency to handle my Dad's care. From the beginning to the end the staff were professional and courteous. My dad unfortunately decided to end services because of his stubbornness. Mark was understanding and expressed his concern for my Dad's wellbeing. He didn't push for us to continue services. I would work with ABC again if my father agrees to resume services. They definitely have your loved ones best interest in mind.”

“I HIGHLY RECOMMEND Dr. David Hart for your elder-care needs. Dr. Hart is an incredibly knowledgeable and caring person who helped our family beyond measure to provide the best level of care for our mother who has Alzheimer's Disease. We engaged Dr. Hart to 1) conduct his own periodic assessments of our mother; 2) create a forum for our broader family, including our mom, to communicate and ask questions; 3) provide training and resources; and 4) help our family evaluate and implement an interim and long-term care plan for our mother. DR. HART EXCEEDED OUR EXPECTATIONS ON EVERY LEVEL. Prior to meeting Dr. Hart we had received a lot of conflicting information and our broader family was experiencing a very high level of stress and frustration. Thankfully, after engaging with Dr. Hart for several months, our family became knowledgeable, we communicated well with each other, and we just implemented a long-term care plan that addresses all of our mom's needs and one that she really enjoys. DR. HART IS THE BEST AND HE TRULY CARES ABOUT HIS PATIENTS AND THE FAMILIES HE WORKS WITH. Thank you Dr. Hart for all of you have done for our family. Words cannot express our gratitude.”

“My widowed 80-year-old mother who has Alzheimer's disease has been living alone for 3 years. She has been extremely resistant to having caregivers in her home and my brother and I had all but given up. We have been amazed at the progress we've made since enlisting the help of Dr. David Hart at Always Best Care. In a little over a month, Mom has accepted a caregiver and is considering a move to an assisted living facility. Equally important, the support and assistance we have received in making both large and small decisions has been invaluable and a huge relief. I also highly recommend the Caregiving Essentials class taught by Dr. Hart, which covers everything you need to know in a single 3-1/2 hour "bootcamp" session, including brain science, communication tips, and resources. (GPS shoe insert, who knew?!) The class would benefit anyone who has a friend or family member suffering from dementia.”

“Dr. Hart has been of monumental assistance to our family during a very difficult time. We first learned of Dr. David’s practice when mom was first diagnosed with mild cognitive impairment (MCI). His support groups for families and patients offered comfort and practical advice from others going through the same experience. He provided essential information—facts about dementia and lifestyle changes to slow the process—based on the latest research findings, sparing us the time and frustration of navigating the web and sorting facts from myths. But most important to me has been the emotional support Dr. David has personally provided to my sister and I, and the trusting relationship he established with mom. His professional empathy and experience with human behavior as well as his expertise in the field of geriatrics and cognition combine to provide an array of servicesthat will truly make the difference toward a successful transition for elders and their families. I could not recommend Dr. Hart more highly!”

How does In-home Senior Care in El Segundo, CA work?

Home is where the heart is. While that saying can sound a tad cliche, it's 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 ages, giving them the gift of senior care is one of the best ways to show your love, even if you live far away.

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.

In-home care makes it possible for millions of seniors to age in place every year. Rather than moving to a unfamiliar assisted living community, 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:

Comfort
Comfort

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, that a senior's home is where they want to grow old. With the help of elderly care in El Segundo, 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.

Healthy Living
Healthy Living

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.

Independence
Independence

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 an assisted living community. 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.

Cost and Convenience
Cost and Convenience

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 to help seniors age in place than it is to move them into an institutional care facility. In-home care services from Always Best Care, for instance, can be 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 in El Segundo, CA 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.

Empowers Seniors

Affordable Care Plans

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:

Veteran's Benefits
Veteran's Benefits

Aid and Attendance benefits through military service can cover a portion of the costs associated with in-home care for veterans and their spouses.

Long-Term Care Insurance
Long-Term Care Insurance

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.

Private Insurance
Private Insurance

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.

Life Insurance
Life Insurance

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.


Respite Care El Segundo, CA

During your Care Plan consultation with Always Best Care, your Care Coordinator will speak with you about in-home care costs and what options there may be to help meet your budget needs.

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 El Segundo,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.

 Caregivers El Segundo, CA

Taking the First Step with Always Best Care

The first step in getting quality in-home care starts with a personal consultation with an experienced 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:

An assessment of your senior loved one

01

An in-depth discussion of the needs of your senior loved one to remain in their own home

02

Reviewing a detailed Care Plan that will meet your senior loved one's needs

03

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.

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.

SAN BERNARDINO — Four days off did little to affect the top of El Segundo Little League’s lineup.

Brody Brooks, Louis Lappe and Jaxon Kalish all scored in the top of the first inning as Southern California’s 11- and 12-yard-old champions topped their Northern California peers, 3-1, in the Little League West Region championship game on Friday night, securing a trip to the Little League World Series in Williamsport, Pa.

“It’s not fun to have four days off but at the end of the day, we got to go home and sleep in our own beds and we needed it,” El Segundo manager Danny Boehle said.

Lappe struck out eight to earn the victory for El Segundo (3-0 overall), which has yet to lose this postseason.

“’Lou’ is a spectacular player and pitcher. He shows no emotion,” Boehle said. “Some guys hang their heads or get too high. Not Lou.”

El Segundo was the last of 20 teams to earn a berth in this year’s Little League World Series and will open play Thursday against the Great Lakes Regional champion. There are 10 teams from the United States and 10 international squads. The championship game is scheduled for Aug. 27 on ABC (Ch. 7).

El Segundo, which hadn’t played since Monday, will be making its first appearance in Williamsport.

“This is huge for El Segundo. We’ve never got anywhere close, so this is special,” said Boehe, still dripping after receiving a post-game ice water shower from his players.

“I believe in ‘We over me’ – I believe that – and these kids have each other’s backs,” Boehle said. “It’s a pleasure to coach this team.”

Lappe loaded the bases in the top of the first inning but struck out the side to escape, and Brody Brooks led off the bottom of the fourth with his fourth hit in as many at-bats before coming around to score on a wild pitch as El Segundo grabbed an early 3-0 lead.

Brandon Manivong entered for NorCal starter Mikey Wong and attempted to single-handedly will his team back, pitching five scoreless innings and hitting a deep home run – his second of the tournament – into the tents in left-center field to get NorCal on the scoreboard in the fourth.

After closing each of El Segundo’s previous wins, Lappe scattered just five hits over 5? innings, the longest outing of any SoCal pitcher at the four-team West Region tournament.

“I thought I pitched pretty well,” Lappe said. “My fastball didn’t feel its fastest but it was working and effective, and my curveball was good and it was throwing them off.”

Kalish entered the game with two outs in the sixth and got Wong to fly out to right field to end the game.

El Segundo had defeated NorCal, 4-3, last Saturday in the regional opener for both teams, with El Segundo rallying for three runs in the bottom of the fourth.

“We tried to learn from the first game facing (Manivong), what he did to us, so I think by facing him already it made us ready for this game,” Lappe said.

Lappe also went 2 for 2 to finish the tournament with six hits, the most of any player this week in San Bernardino.

Earlier Friday, Nolan Gifford struck out 11 in hurling a no-hitter as Nevada topped Utah, 10-0, in a game that was shortened to four innings via the competition rule to win the Mountain Region final.

The all-star team from El Segundo faces the all-star team from Needville, Texas Saturday afternoon at 12:30 p.m. in the Little League World Series -- and "Go Gundo" cheers ring throughout the Southern California beach town.

El Segundo advanced to Saturday's U.S. championship game with a 2-1 win Thursday night, fending off elimination for the third game in three days, beating its counterpart Thursday from the Northeast Seattle Little League.

The team's coach said the run so far has been fantastic.

"This team is special and to do it with your son, and I feel like I've adopted all the other 11 kids out here. I've become a mentor and a role model to them as it relates to baseball and life lessons baseball can teach you," said El Segundo coach Danny Boehle.

"It's just been fantastic, it's just unbelievable the treatment we've had here and from the city of El Segundo and the state of California and every other state around us supporting us has just been incredible."

And the team's hometown is definitely behind them. Watch parties for the games have regularly been promoted at Rock & Brews El Segundo and many other area restaurants/ bars in the area. A watch party will be held at Rock & Brews El Segundo for Saturday's 12:30 p.m. game.

"I haven't had a conversation that hasn't talked about Brody Brook's phenomenal batting average, the fielding that Colby Lee is doing at second base, every conversation ends with 'go gundo'," said El Segundo City Councilmember Ryan Baldino.

El Segundo faces the all-star team from the Needville. Texas Little League, the Southwest Region champion, in the U.S. championship. El Segundo lost to Needville, 3-1, on Monday, relegating it to the elimination bracket.

D.J. Jablonski is expected to pitch for Needville in Saturday's game. He limited El Segundo to four hits and one run in 5 1/3 innings in a 3-1 victory Monday, with the only run coming on Louis Lappe's first-inning home run. Jablonski hit a solo homer in the fourth.

El Segundo had the tying run on first base with two outs in the bottom of the sixth and final inning after Colby Lee and Brody Brooks were hit by pitches by reliever Easton Ondruch, but Lappe grounded out to end the game.

Needville has played only once since then, defeating the all-star team from the Northeast Seattle Little League 1-0 Wednesday to advance to the U.S. championship game.

El Segundo has played three times since its loss to Needville.

This will be the first time since 1994 a Los Angeles County team has played in the U.S. championship game.

The U.S. champion will face the winner of Saturday's international championship between teams from Taoyuan, Taiwan and Willemstad, Curacao, for the world championship Sunday.

EL SEGUNDO, Calif. (KABC) -- The Little League World Series champions from El Segundo returned Monday to Southern California and were welcomed home by thousands as they caravaned along their hometown's streets.

The flight carrying the El Segundo team arrived at Los Angeles International Airport around 3 p.m. and was greeted with a fire department water cannon arcing over the aircraft.

The caravan then headed down Imperial Highway and headed south to El Segundo Boulevard. Thousands of friends, fans and community members lined the streets, holding signs, tossing confetti and approaching the team vehicles to offer high-fives.

The public was asked to "bring signs, wear ESLL clothing or colors, balloons, kids, pets, cheers, whatever!! Show your ESLL and All-Stars pride," the league posted on Facebook.

There will be a parade honoring the team on Main Street Sept. 10, the league announced Saturday.

El Segundo won the championship in dramatic fashion Sunday after Louis Lappe hit a walk-off home run in the bottom of the sixth and final inning, beating the team from the Willemstad, Curacao-based Pabao Little League, 6-5, in South Williamsport, Pennsylvania.

"I was just looking for a good pitch," Lappe told ABC after hitting his Series-leading fifth home run in seven games. "My mentality was just get the next guy up and if we kept doing that, we would have won either way, but I'll take the homer."

Their peers back home described watching the game from Southern California.

"Once Louis hit the ball... as soon as it hit the bat I knew it was out. I knew El Segundo won and I knew El Segundo would go crazy... It was awesome. We were excited for them," said Cade Maechling, a former Little League player.

Now, they're ready to welcome them back home to celebrate the victory.

Max Adlam, another former Little Leaguer, was happy to see his friends win.

"I've been friends with all of them since elementary school... I've been teammates with literally every single one of them before. It felt awesome," he said.

The El Segundo all-star team defeated Needville (Texas) to win the U.S. championship in the Little League World Series.

In the 69-year existence of the El Segundo Little League, they never made it out of regionals. So to take it to the tournament was an enormous accomplishment.

El Segundo had to overcome several challenges to win it all. The team dealt with a stomach bug early on in the tournament and then had to win five games in a row to bring the world title home.

Steve Lubs, a teacher at El Segundo Middle School, says he either taught or coached a majority of the players on the team.

"It's so much fun to see them in a different realm," Lubs said. "The reality is everybody was around them during that time - the entire community... It was kind of inspiring for me, honestly. I'm really proud of them."

On social media, the team garnered words of congratulations from major league teams in Los Angeles, like the Dodgers, the L.A. Kings and the Rams.

Apart from the caravan, the Dodgers have also invited the team to celebrate the historic win at Dodger Stadium on Tuesday.

California Gov. Gavin Newsom also gave a shoutout to the all-stars in a statement that said "this team gave us some unforgettable moments, and created memories for themselves and their loved ones that will last a lifetime."

The other Los Angeles County teams to win the Little League World Series were the all-star teams from the Granada Hills National Little League in 1963 and the Long Beach Little League in 1992 and 1993.

A team from Huntington Beach took the title in 2011.
