We had an outstanding experience with Family Matters, and I wanted to share this review because…read morethis is what exemplary care should look like. My 75-year-old mother underwent necessary brain surgery three weeks ago. Three days before surgery, she had a ground-level fall, tore her rotator cuff, and sustained a small fracture. Because the surgery could not be deferred, she proceeded as planned but required significant care at home afterward. She had been fully independent, and although she lives with my father, the caregiving needs were beyond his comfort level. I was able to help for a few days after her discharge, but it was clear they would need additional support for her to remain safely at home. The hospital nurses were wonderful, but my mom needed assistance even with basic tasks like repositioning in bed and using the restroom, as her left arm was immobilized. Our hospital care coordinator connected us with Amy, the client care manager for Family Matters, who met us at home right away. She performed a thorough evaluation and took the time to understand my parents' needs and preferences. Almost immediately, we were connected with KJ, the Director of Operations, who coordinated the caregiving schedule. She ensured an excellent match with caregivers and that coverage was consistent and reliable. Communication was seamless--KJ was always responsive and proactive with updates, and we never felt out of touch. My mom especially wanted to recognize her primary daytime caregiver, Maria. Maria was attentive, warm, and incredibly experienced, with over 20 years in caregiving. She is also an excellent cook and was especially skilled in helping my mom with more vulnerable tasks like showering. The other caregivers who supported nights and weekends were also wonderful. The team clearly put thought and care into matching personalities and backgrounds, which made a meaningful difference. Over the following weeks, my mom gradually regained her independence, and we were able to scale back care smoothly. The team made adjustments easy and seamless. We would absolutely use Family Matters again. This was our first experience with a caregiving service, and we were initially apprehensive, but they made the entire process easy, supportive, and reassuring. We would use them again in a heartbeat.

Managing my father's 24/7 caregiving across three agencies on top of everything else has been an…read moreenormous undertaking especially while working a demanding full time job. Even more challenging is finding caregivers you can truly trust during such a vulnerable stage of life. A very special thank you to Family Matters, and my father's caregiver, Sade. He is under hospice care with advanced dementia, and can barely speak. Sade is consistently patient, and kind, and gives me complete peace of mind whenever she's caring for him. Most importantly, she engages with him and makes him feel seen. This is in sharp contrast to other caregivers we've experienced who are often on their phones and treat him as if he's invisible. I'm also especially grateful for KJ who manages the caregivers and scheduling. While other agencies haven't taken the time to meet my father or me in person, KJ made it a priority to get hands-on training to fully understand my father's caregiving needs. Because of this, she's been able to step in to provide training and support which is a huge godsend given my limited bandwidth. She even proactively revised the caregiving shift note template to make it clearer and more helpful for our caregiving team. Family Matters has truly exceeded our expectations because they understand the real meaning of caregiving. On top of that, their participation in the Veterans Assistance Program, which requires stricter qualifications provides an added layer of confidence and experience.

I had outpatient surgery and was told someone needed to stay with me for eight hours afterward…read more Since I don't have family or friends nearby who could take time off work, I looked for a home health aide service and found California Seniors Care. The overall experience was very smooth--from meeting the care coordinator Natalie and signing the forms to making final arrangements by text. Everyone here was warm and helpful. A special shoutout to my caregiver, Candy, who was lively and fun. After I got home, I slept for a couple of hours, and when I woke up we chatted--the conversation helped me stay alert and shake off the grogginess from the anesthesia. Being Chinese, Candy understood my needs at home, and that cultural awareness was especially comforting while recovering on my own. Hopefully I won't need surgery again--but if I do, I'll be calling California Seniors Care!

Our older family member's progress would not have been possible without their expertise, support, and perseverance. Nurse Annie is incredibly compassionate, smart, and detail-oriented & improved our family member's lung function and bedsore treatment/prevention. Debbie & Ben are diligent and creative with their PT/OT approaches, tailoring it to each older adult's interests and abilities. Stephanie is meticulous in cleansing and taught us all sorts of techniques to more feasibly do regular cleanings. We are grateful for amazing and experienced healthcare personnel like Dr. Xu, Ben, Debbie, Stephanie, and Nurse Annie who go the extra mile to take care of their patients.

CK came with a reputation of being one of their most sought after and best aides and he happened to become available after caring for another gentleman for a long period. Little did we know what a powerhouse CK would be. In his early 70's and small of stature, it was a delight to see how strong of heart and body he was. His kindness and respect towards my father never faltered. He often did night care and never did he complain of being tired or the hours or the duties. He was loyal to the very end even when it took almost 4 years for my dad to pass when originally we all thought it would be a year. He never called out sick and probably took one or two short vacations in all that time. He was steadfast and competent and gave my father the dignity he deserved. Starlight was easy to work with and we are so grateful To have had them and CK be a part of our journey with my dads and of life. I can't recommend them enough!

From the moment we connected with them five years ago, their professionalism and warmth stood out. The caregivers are not only highly skilled but also deeply empathetic--treating us with dignity, patience, and kindness every step of the way. They've become part of the family. Cindy and the team went above and beyond to anticipate our needs and provide tailored support, even during stressful times. Whether it was personal hygiene care, meal prep, or simply being a comforting presence, they consistently delivered with excellence. Their communication was clear and proactive, which gave us peace of mind knowing our family member was in good hands. They also made our lives easier by handling the paper-work for our long-term-care insurance. When an emergency arose and we suddenly needed around-the-clock (24x7) assistance, they were there with additional help and no gap in coverage. Just one text was all it took! What peace of mind knowing that we could rely on them to augment our regular caretaking schedule without having to hunt during a crisis for additional caretakers. If you're looking for a caregiving service that truly understands what it means to care, I can't recommend Starlight highly enough.

Our Dad is in hospice. Home Helpers is attentive to our Dad's needs and our requests for monitoring, and quick to address concerns. These aren't babysitters. They take our Dad to activities, engage him with puzzles in his suite, and ensure he is nourished and hydrated. The company is very easy to communicate with and answers my texts almost immediately. We do have instances where a substitute person has to come in because the regular person is unavailable. The company has always found a replacement except for once in the past 5 months. Home Helpers was first vetted by our Dad's retirement facility, and was among several companies we could select help. I see many Home Helper care givers around the facility so I know we are not the only satisfied clients. The services are not inexpensive but the level of care for our Dad and comfort to our family is well worth the price.

Exceptional Compassion and Support from Sequoia Home Health and Hospice…read more When I was told that my dad would need to be placed on hospice, I was overwhelmed and terrified. I didn't know what to expect or how to navigate the next steps. But the team at Sequoia Home Health and Hospice stepped in immediately--without hesitation--and guided us through every moment with compassion, clarity, and genuine care. I want to give my deepest thanks to Susan Jacinto, who became my tower of strength during one of the hardest times of my life. Her steady presence and her patience in explaining every detail helped me breathe when everything felt impossible. Together with Elma Basalote, the two of them made my dad's transition into hospice unbelievably seamless. Within less than 24 hours, everything we needed was in place. The team helped me communicate with the doctor to arrange a temporary admission for my dad while equipment and supplies were being ordered. They coordinated his transport from the hospital to our home, set up all the medical equipment, and ensured we received every supply, medication, and piece of training needed to care for him properly. They scheduled nurses, CNAs, pharmacy support, and activity staff--managing every moving part so we never felt alone. What made Sequoia truly stand out, though, is that their care didn't end when my dad passed away. Susan continued to stand by my side even after my father's death, checking in on me, guiding me through what needed to happen next, and making sure the Sequoia team remained present during the transition. Their compassion went far beyond medical support--they gave emotional support at a time when I needed it most. Even now, Sequoia still checks in with us, asking how we're doing and what services they can offer to help us through the grief and healing process. That level of follow-through is rare, and it speaks volumes about their genuine dedication to the families they serve. Sequoia Home Health and Hospice didn't just care for my father--they cared for all of us. Their kindness, professionalism, and unwavering support brought comfort during one of the most painful chapters of our lives. I will always be grateful to Susan, Elma, and the entire Sequoia team for the love and compassion they showed our family.

My 68 year old husband had knee replacement therapy on April 1st. His pt was set up through this…read morecompany five days later by Rachel, who came to our house. A therapist named Bogdon was assigned to continue the therapy. Bogdon came twice a week, and I noticed he was only staying in our house for 30 minutes maximum. (The ortho surgeon had said the sessions would run 45-60 minutes) During that 30 minutes, Bogdon also spent time taking vitals and checking in with Bill, my husband. On the third week, Bill asked this man about the shortened sessions. The man replied: 1. "I have to get in 8 sessions per day to make the living I need to make." 2. "I've scheduled my sessions on the hour, so I have to leave early enough in order to get to my next session in town." 3. "Most of the senior patients I work with cannot handle more than 30 minute sessions." 4. "If you do not like the way I am doing it, find another therapist at a different company." In addition, there were times that my husband would look out the front window at the time Bogdon was supposed to be starting (on the hour!), and would see him in his car, just sitting there. It looked like he was looking down at his phone. Then he would come in the house, late. After my husband brought up with Bogdon the issue of the shorter sessions, the next week, a NEW therapist suddenly showed up to work with him! Unfortunately, that therapist only was able to see him for ONE session that week. However, he came for the full hour of time. My husband started with a new physical therapist (and company) this past week, and said it was like a "night and day" difference! The therapist was dedicated, caring, on time, and effective. My husband wished he had not WASTED the first four weeks of his recovery with Sequoia and Bogdon.
