Why Comfort Keepers®?

Compassionate Comfort Keepers®

One of the main differences between Comfort Keepers and other in-home care agencies is the people who serve as specially-trained caregivers, or “Comfort Keepers.”

To become a Comfort Keeper, applicants must undergo a stringent screening process. After an initial phone interview and completing a nine-page application, there is an in-depth personal interview and integrity assessment, followed by a comprehensive series of background checks, including credit, criminal, DMV and reference checks, so that you and your loved one can have absolute trust in the person who is providing the care. Although many applicants do not meet the unusually high standards, those who do join the Comfort Keepers team go through extensive preparation. Training consists of company policy and procedure as well as professional presentation, communication, understanding dementia, ADL (Activities of Daily Living – feeding, dressing, toileting, diapering, bathing and assistance with transfers) and dietary requirements for seniors. Depending on the individual, the training also focuses on aspects of care that many in-home agencies do not address, such as body mechanics, hospice care, and Alzheimer’s and dementia care.

If you or a loved one is in need of the type of senior care Comfort Keepers provides, you will experience first-hand the warmth and compassion of a Comfort Keeper in your home. Many clients speak of their caregivers not just as workers or employees, but as companions, even friends, like having an additional family member in the home. It is this combination of practical competence with a tender, loving heart for seniors that makes Comfort Keepers’ caregivers truly unique—it’s why we call ourselves “Comfort Keepers.”

Specific Services

If you or a loved one lives in the San Diego East County area and are in need of in-home care, Comfort Keepers is the solution. The following are just a few of the many unique services provided in California:

• Companionship Care: Whether it is meal preparation, friendly conversation, medication reminders, light housekeeping, incidental transportation or family relief, companionship care provides a wide range of in-home services that enable seniors to live happier, safer, and more fulfilling lives.
• Personal Care: For those who need a higher level of hands-on assistance, personal care includes a compassionate, sensitive approach to life’s daily concerns, such as feeding, toileting, mobility, and bathing.
• Emergency Response System: To provide seniors and their loved ones with the peace of mind that comes from emergency monitoring, using only the latest technology available on the market so that you or a loved one can call for help instantly from anywhere in your home.
• Medication Management System: Taking the right medications at the right time is critical to reducing hospitalization. A member of the Comfort Keepers team can consult and install everything from reminder programs to actual medication dispensers.  Medication management systems help seniors continue their medication regimen regularly and properly.
• Alzheimer’s and Dementia Care: Unlike many other senior care agencies, Comfort Keepers requires each of their caregivers to undergo Alzheimer’s and Dementia training, so that they can provide better care to those suffering with Alzheimer’s disease, memory loss, and other difficult cognitive deficiencies.
• Geriatric Care: To address the complex needs of older people, Comfort Keepers’ geriatric care program specifically prepares their caregivers to give the appropriate, compassionate response that is essential for in-home geriatric care.
• Stroke Recovery: The road to recuperation after a stroke or heart attack can be a difficult one, but with Comfort Keepers’ stroke recovery program, you or a loved one will receive the care that is necessary for the best possible recovery, including transfers, social support, encouragement, and dietary needs.
• Hospice Support Care: Comfort Keepers provides hospice support care and support for those struggling with end-of-life issues, including transportation, grocery shopping, and handling many of the day-to-day details that can seem overwhelming in such difficult circumstances.
• Emphysema Care: When it comes to the difficult everyday issues of dealing with such a disease as emphysema, Comfort Keepers’ caregivers will work with you or your loved one to create a positive and life-affirming program to reach for the best possible quality of life and personal health.

According to a 2000 U.S. Census estimate, the demand for senior care in San Diego County is significant and growing. Comfort Keepers is here to provide seniors with the opportunity to live full and independent lives within the comfort of their own homes.
