Home Care in Pasadena, CA
Non-medical in-home care from caregivers who know your neighborhood. Every plan starts with a free assessment at home.
Home care near you
If you are looking for home care in Pasadena, you probably have a parent or spouse who wants to stay put. Maybe it is the Craftsman where they raised the family, or a hillside house with a view they are not ready to give up. Era Life Care sends non-medical caregivers into Pasadena homes to help with the everyday things that have become hard: bathing, dressing, meals, medication reminders and getting around safely.
Care can be a few hours twice a week, overnight, or 24-hour home care when someone should not be alone. You choose the schedule, and it can change as needs do. Every plan starts with a free in-home assessment so we can see the house, meet your loved one and hear what matters to them.
Our office answers the phone 24/7. That helps when a question comes up at 10 p.m., or when a hospital discharge moves faster than anyone expected.
What we offer
Home Care Services in Pasadena
In-Home Senior Care
Help with meals, laundry, light housekeeping and errands, so a parent living alone in East Pasadena or up near the Rose Bowl can keep their routine.
24-Hour Home Care
Caregivers work in shifts so someone is awake and present day and night. Families often choose this after a fall or a hospital stay. Read what a 24-hour caregiver does.
Dementia and Alzheimer's Care
Calm routines, gentle redirection and supervision for loved ones with memory loss. A familiar kitchen and a favorite chair can make the day feel more settled.
Personal Care
Respectful help with bathing, toileting, grooming and dressing. In a small vintage bathroom, a second set of steady hands makes the shower much safer.
Companion Care
Conversation, card games, a walk around the block, a visit to the Pasadena Senior Center or the library. A good fit for someone who manages fine physically but spends too many hours alone.
Respite Care
If you are the family caregiver, take an afternoon, a weekend or a week. We cover the shifts so you can rest, work or travel.
Hospice Care Support
Non-medical comfort care alongside your hospice team: personal care, meals and company, so family can spend their time simply being together.
Recovery Assistance
Short-term help for the first days or weeks home after a hospital or rehab stay, such as coming home from Huntington Hospital. Caregivers help with meals, bathing and moving around while strength returns.
Transportation
Rides to doctor visits, the pharmacy, church or the grocery store, with a caregiver who stays with your loved one instead of dropping them at the curb.
Elder Care
Ongoing support for an older adult whose needs are growing slowly, with hours that go up only when you decide they should.
Why families choose us
Why Families Choose Us for Home Care in Pasadena
We plan around older houses. Pasadena has a lot of homes built long before anyone thought about grab bars: front steps in Bungalow Heaven, step-down living rooms, narrow hallways, one small bathroom upstairs. During the assessment we walk the house with you and point out where a fall is most likely. Caregivers then help with stairs, transfers and showers so your loved one can keep using the rooms they love.
We sort out parking before the first shift. Many older blocks have tight driveways and crowded curbs, and the city limits overnight street parking. For overnight and 24-hour care, we agree with you on where the caregiver will park so shift changes go smoothly.
We take the heat seriously. Summer afternoons here can get very hot. Caregivers keep water within reach, help keep the house cool and move walks and errands to the morning.
We keep faraway family in the loop. Plenty of the families who call us live in another city or state while Mom or Dad stays in Pasadena. We write the care plan with you, and you can reach our office at any hour to check in or change the hours.
We match the caregiver to the person. A retired professor who wants to talk about books needs a different companion than someone who prefers quiet and the radio. We look at personality, language and routine as well as the task list. Era Life Care is a Best of Home Care® Provider of Choice and Employer of Choice.
“They have a wonderful reputation in the community and provide excellent care to those they serve. I highly recommend Era Life Care.”
