“I have been in the same position many of my clients and their families are in and I completely understand the importance of having professionally-trained compassionate caregivers you can count on! It makes all the difference! I opened this service because I deeply care for our seniors and their families and want them to have a compassionate, quality option for care that enables them to stay in the comfort and safety of their own homes,” Jain said.

Jain added that, in addition to making sure they hire top-notch diverse caregivers, they’re also going to focus on training staff from a variety of backgrounds and cultures who can speak multiple languages, understand various cultural norms and practices, cook a variety of foods etc., so they can effectively pair caregivers with clients to best meet their unique needs.

Home Helpers & Direct Link offers free in-home consultations and works with each client/senior to create a flexible, affordable care plan based on a person’s individual needs.

Home Helpers and Direct Link of Fremont is a great service for anyone who needs assistance to stay safe and comfortable at home,” Jain said.
