Companionship for Seniors in Oakland, CA
Having a friendly and trusted companion can make each day at home more enjoyable. At Caring Hands Caregivers, our compassionate companions love spending time with seniors who are aging in place, providing them with the support and connection they need.
Studies show that human companionship has a positive impact on a senior’s physical health, cognitive function, and overall well-being. That is why we take great care in matching your loved one with a companion who is not only friendly but also suited to their personality and interests. Our caregivers engage seniors in meaningful activities that promote happiness, mental stimulation, and a sense of fulfillment.
Our Caregivers
Every client is matched with a hand-picked caregiver that ideally suits his/her individual needs. This includes subjective factors (personality, ability to live together) as well as medical factors.
Our caregivers average over 5 years of experience, so we aren’t “breaking in” new caregivers. We also work hard to keep our caregivers happy, which enables us to minimize the caregiver churn many agencies face. We know our caregivers very well, allowing us to better match your needs with the right skill set. Many of our caregivers are CNA’s and LVN’s. We also provide additional on-demand training for our caregivers, for on-going professional development.
Our caregivers are chosen both for their superior skills and their ability to relate to our clients. We do not hire people just looking for a paycheck — our caregivers love what they do!
