Non-Medical Home Care Options Bring Seniors To Full Strength In Pasadena

Many seniors today insist that they don’t want home care because they assume that only the sick need such services.

A-1 Home Care offers elder care services that include short-term care for seniors who are looking to invest in temporary care in the home, along with live-in care services for seniors with Alzheimer’s care needs.

Heart Attack Patients Receive Lasting Cardiovascular Solutions With A-1 Home Care

In today’s stressed-out and fattened-up America, it seems that heart attacks are becoming more common by the day. One of the biggest factors for heart attacks is advancing age, because many seniors have a propensity to have years of plaque build-up in the walls of their heart and surrounding arteries.
When one of these arteries or heart structures gets too overwhelmed from all the plaque build-up that’s keeping blood from flowing freely through it, it will rupture in the form of a heart attack.
Heart attacks and cardiovascular diseases in general can be very frightening for any senior patient, but we at A-1 Home Care can help surviving heart attack victims get back on their feet—oftentimes literally—with our leading heart attack care options that extend throughout the Los Angeles and Orange County communities.

When someone suffers from an initial heart attack, his/her immediate risk for incurring another rises because the heart is scarred from the first attack, which makes the heart weaker and more susceptible. But A-1 Home Care offers a variety of different home care options to help make a return heart attack less likely, such as healthy meal preparation, encouraging increased exercise routines, and helping patients cease existing unhealthy habits like smoking.
We also offer 24 hour live-in home care services for all patients who require continual supervision, as well as help with things such as light housecleaning, personal care and hygiene, and transportation to and from doctor’s appointments and other existing engagements.

For more information about A-1 Home Care and why a second heart attack is never as likely when you have one of our senior care providers with you, give us a call today at (310) 657-8780 or check out one of our offices in cities like Pasadena, Los Alamitos, Beverly Hills, Corona Del Mar, and Century City today!

Alzheimer’s

Alzheimer’s can be quite overwhelming when it affects one of our loved ones. This type of dementia causes problems with thinking, memory and behavior.

A-1 Home Care can help seniors by assigning a trained care giver who will assist your loved one with appropriate Elder Care. A care giver can become a Home Helper and can assist your family with 24 Hour Care. An elder In Home Care, can be assisted with light housekeeping tasks, laundry, bathing, many other things.

Take a Moment to Cherish Seniors

A-1 Home Care has been servicing seniors and the elderly in Los Angeles and Orange County since 1991, and after so many years in the business of caregiving, we and our caregivers have learned so much about ourselves and our customers, the most important being that seniors and the elderly, however much they may not be able to express themselves as they once used to, have lived rich and full lives, and deserve their right for care. As this photo below conveys, the body and mind may alter once people enter into their senior years, but no matter what, they will always see themselves as they were in the most pivotal point in their lives.


Our in home and live in caregivers understand this very important concept and for that reason, they do their utmost best to administer the best kind of Senior and Companion Care for their patients. Without them understanding that, we could not have grown to be what we are now.
