CareResoure Aging and Adult Care Celebrates its 15th Year in Business

March 15, 2010 - PRLog -- For many families, providing care to older loved ones who may otherwise be healthy, but no longer able to drive or get around easily, can be a dilemma.  For 15 years, Care Resource has been solving that dilemma for many families in the Bay Area.

“Reaching our fifteenth year in business is a huge milestone for us,” states Monina Carlos-Maclang, President of CareResource Aging and Adult Care.  “When we first started, there were only a handful of companies like ours in the entire state of California.  The industry certainly has grown, but we are proud to be one of the very  first companies in the Bay Area to focus on this type of care.”

Non-medical home care services are an important component to helping seniors remain in their home. The National Academy of Aging estimates that there are currently 8.5 million people over age 70 in America who need help with driving, household chores, dressing, and preparing meals.  That number will grow to 21 million in the next quarter century.

CareResource  non-medical care services include assistance with bathing and dressing, companionship, light housekeeping, meal preparation, and errands.  Services are
available for as little as 1  ½ per day, or can be provided for 24 hours per day, 7 days per week.

Monina adds, “The past 15 years have been very rewarding on a personal level for myself and the staff at CareResource. The families of our clients appreciate that our services mean that they do not have to uproot their loved one from their home. Some simply cannot sell their home in this economy to move to an older adult community, or to move closer to family caregivers. Their family members appreciate that CareResource  allows them to live in  their homes safely and comfortably,  while providing them with peace of mind.  In addition, the services we provide can be a cost effective option to nursing homes, or moving to an assisted living facility.”

Careresource plans to celebrate their 15th year by providing range of educational topics in the community on aging issues.
