About Essentialcare
EssentialCare provides in-home care in the San Francisco Bay Area, serving seniors who want to age at home or receive supplemental care while in assisted living facilities. Most seniors prefer to remain in their own homes as they age, and EssentialCare helps with activities of daily living—personal care, meal preparation, light housekeeping, incontinence care, and companionship. The company also offers specialized services for conditions including Alzheimer's and dementia, stroke, cancer, orthopedic recovery, and hospice care, as well as respite care for family caregivers.
EssentialCare starts with a free in-home or office assessment where a care manager discusses the senior's needs and available care options. After the assessment, the company uses its matching process to select a caregiver and allows families to review the caregiver's profile before services begin. The company reports it can start care within an hour of selecting a care plan.
All EssentialCare caregivers have a minimum of two years of experience and complete the company's training program. The company uses an automated check-in system requiring caregivers to log in and out from the client's home phone; if a caregiver is delayed, a care manager arranges a replacement. EssentialCare offers a satisfaction guarantee.
It offers assisted living, independent living, memory care, skilled nursing facilities, respite care, continuing care retirement communities, adult day care, home care services, senior co-housing, and life plan communities. Residents have access to 9 listed amenities and services spanning medical services, patient comfort, and support services. Across 14 resident and family reviews, it holds an average rating of 4.9 out of 5.
