Local Care for Local Elders is a group of people who care for seniors in Cloverdale who need help, with a mission to provide compassionate care which protects the dignity and confidentiality of their clients. Not an agency, but independent contractors whom seniors hire directly, they meet once a month at the senior center or through Zoom to get to know each other, express concerns, and improve their skills.
The client chooses the care giver that best suits their needs. Depending upon the client’s request, they may work solo, or form teams. Each worker is hired according to their availability and skills to better ensure quality and consistent care.
Caregivers maintain a safe, clean, (green if possible) environment, providing meal preparation, transportation, personal care, light housekeeping, exercise, mental stimulation, and companionship.
If you are a senior in need or if you enjoy helping seniors, contact Janet Seaforth at 707-894-7345.
