About Us | Loving Homecare

Loving Homecare is a non-medical agency: caregivers assist, remind, observe and coordinate. They do not diagnose, treat, perform wound care, or administer medication. When something requires a nurse or doctor, the agency reports it to the family and the medical team.

Non-Medical Home Care Services | Loving Homecare

Every caregiver is a registered home care aide listed on California’s Home Care Aide Registry, cleared through a Department of Justice background check, and covered by the agency’s insurance rather than hired directly by the family.

Private Duty Home Care Services | Loving Homecare

Loving Homecare is a VA-approved home care provider, so veterans and surviving spouses may fund care through VA Aid and Attendance. Long-term care insurance is also accepted, and the agency handles the claim paperwork.

Home Care Assistance Service | Loving Homecare

In 2026, licensed, insured and bonded home care agencies in Southern California generally charge $32 to $45 per hour depending on hours and level of care. These are market figures, not a quote; the exact number comes from a free in-home assessment, in writing.

Service 21

Dementia and Alzheimer’s Care

svc_dementia_care · Service

In-home dementia and Alzheimer’s care guided by Certified Dementia Practitioners, covering routine, safety, sundowning and wandering.

1 source passage

Dementia elderly care asks more of a family than any other diagnosis: constant supervision, endless patience and a home that has to keep changing as the disease does. Trained caregivers carry that load with the family, stage by stage.

Dementia & Alzheimer's Home Care Services | Loving Homecare

Respite Care

svc_respite_care · Service

Planned or short-notice relief for family caregivers, from a few hours a week to overnight and multi-week coverage.

1 source passage

The families who benefit most treat respite as a standing appointment: every Tuesday afternoon, every other weekend, the first week of summer. A predictable break is the difference between coping and burning out.

Respite Care Services | Loving Homecare

Fall Prevention

svc_fall_prevention · Service

Home hazard assessment, hands-on support during risky moments, and encouragement of prescribed balance and strength exercises.

1 source passage

One in four adults over 65 falls each year, and a serious fall is the most common reason a senior can no longer live at home. Almost none of them come out of nowhere: the hazards, medication effects and growing unsteadiness are visible in advance.

Fall Prevention Home Care Services | Loving Homecare

Post-Surgery Home Care

svc_post_surgery · Service

Short-term, non-medical home care after surgery or a hospital discharge, working alongside home health nurses.

1 source passage

Most readmissions happen in the hours no clinician is present, and that is exactly the gap this service fills: the first nights home, medication reminders, safe movement and someone watching for warning signs.

Home Care After Surgery for Seniors | Loving Homecare

Bathing Assistance

svc_bathing · Service

Respectful help with bathing, grooming and dressing, including same-gender caregiver matching where requested.

1 source passage

For most families, bathing is the first task that becomes too much to handle alone. It is intimate, physically demanding, and the bathroom is where many falls happen. A trained caregiver changes all three at once.

In-Home Bathing Assistance Services For Seniors | Loving Homecare

Medication Reminders and Management

svc_medication_management · Service

Reminders, organisation and observation around a senior’s prescriptions. Caregivers do not administer medication.

1 source passage

Caregivers remind, organise, track and observe. They do not administer medication, and any non-medical agency that says otherwise should worry a family. Changes and missed doses are reported promptly to the family and medical team.

Seniors Medication Management Services | Loving Homecare

Live-In and 24-Hour Home Care

svc_live_in · Service

Continuous coverage through rotating caregivers or live-in arrangements, including awake overnight shifts.

1 source passage

When wandering, falls or advanced illness make every hour a risk, rotating caregivers provide continuous coverage with clear handoffs, so someone alert is always present and the family goes back to being family.

Live-In Home Care Services | Loving Homecare

Palliative Care at Home

svc_palliative · Service

Non-medical comfort care alongside a family’s palliative medical team, covering personal care, meals and presence.

1 source passage

Nurses and doctors visit; they cannot stay. Caregivers provide the hours in between: personal care, meals, comfort and a watchful presence, following the plan the medical team sets and reporting what they observe.

Palliative Care at Home | Loving Homecare

End of Life Care at Home

svc_end_of_life · Service

Continuous non-medical support through the final months, working alongside hospice.

1 source passage

Hospice provides the medical side in scheduled visits. Caregivers provide the continuous non-medical presence between those visits: personal care, comfort, companionship and overnight watchfulness. The two together are what makes dying at home manageable.

End of Life Care Services | Loving Homecare

Senior Placement Services

svc_senior_placement · Service

Help finding an assisted living community or board and care home, free to the family. The home pays the referral fee. Every home recommended has been visited in person and its state licensing record is shared with the family.

1 source passage

Placement costs the family nothing. When a resident moves in, the home pays Loving Homecare a referral fee, which is how nearly every placement service in California is funded. It does not buy a place on the shortlist: every home recommended has been walked through in person, the state licensing record is pulled on each one, and that record is handed to the family along with the recommendation.

Senior Placement Services | Assisted Living & Board and Care | Loving Homecare

Private Duty Home Care

svc_private_duty · Service

Dedicated one-to-one caregiving arranged privately by a family, with agency vetting, insurance and backup cover.

1 source passage

Private duty nursing is skilled clinical care delivered by a licensed nurse. Private duty caregivers here provide non-medical care: personal care, meals, safety, medication reminders and companionship. Families with clinical needs often run both.

Private Duty Home Care Services | Loving Homecare

Non-Medical Home Care

svc_non_medical · Service

The full daily support layer: personal care, meals, housekeeping, reminders, transport and companionship.

1 source passage

Non-medical home care requires no doctor’s order and no diagnosis. It covers care for the person, care for the home and care for the life: conversation, outings, and encouragement to keep up the habits that make a week worth living.

Non-Medical Home Care Services | Loving Homecare

Home Care Assistance

svc_home_care_assistance · Service

Flexible everyday help, from a few hours a week up to 24-hour senior home care.

1 source passage

Most seniors do not need everything done for them. They need the right help with the specific things that have gotten hard: the shower, the stove, the stairs, the drive. Home care assistance is that help, precisely fitted.

Home Care Assistance Service | Loving Homecare

Elderly Companion Care

svc_companion_care · Service

Conversation, company and social connection for seniors at risk of isolation.

1 source passage

Isolation shortens lives. Companion care provides conversation and company, rides to appointments and outings, help staying in touch with family, and encouragement to keep up the walks, hobbies and habits that make a week worth living.

Elderly Companion Care Services | Loving Homecare

Home Cleaning for Seniors

svc_home_cleaning · Service

Light housekeeping delivered by a caregiver, including removal of fall hazards. Not a maid service.

1 source passage

Housekeeping here is part of a care relationship: the same person each visit, attention to safety hazards, and someone who notices when something is off with the client, not just the house.

Home Cleaning Services for Seniors | Loving Homecare

Toileting and Incontinence Care

svc_toileting · Service

Discreet help with toileting, continence management and the dignity that surrounds it.

1 source passage

Toileting and incontinence care is delivered with discretion and patience, protecting dignity as carefully as hygiene, and reporting skin changes promptly so a nurse or doctor can act.

Elderly Toileting And Incontinence Care Services | Loving Homecare

Arthritis Care

svc_arthritis_care · Service

Daily help shaped around stiff and painful joints, with hours that flex during flares.

1 source passage

Osteoarthritis is the most common form in seniors, showing up as worn, painful knees, hips and hands. Rheumatoid arthritis brings inflammation and flare weeks that need surging support. Caregivers take on the tasks that hurt.

Arthritis Care Services | Loving Homecare

Diabetes Care Support

svc_diabetes_care · Service

Non-medical support for seniors managing diabetes: meals, activity, reminders and skin checks.

1 source passage

Caregivers prepare meals tailored to dietary needs, encourage appropriate activity, provide medication reminders, and are trained to spot skin and foot problems early and report them so a nurse or doctor can treat them.

Diabetes Care Services | Loving Homecare

Long Distance Elder Care

svc_long_distance · Service

Local presence and reporting for adult children managing a parent’s care from another city or state.

1 source passage

After every visit the family hears how the parent actually is: what they ate, how they moved, what changed. Real observations from a trained caregiver, not a reassuring voice on the phone saying everything is fine.

Long Distance Elder Care Services | Loving Homecare

Concept 8

Non-Medical Home Care (Custodial care)

con_non_medical_home_care · Concept · sameAs

Professional support with the activities of daily living, delivered in a person’s own home, that does not involve clinical treatment. It requires no doctor’s order and is distinct from home health care.

2 source passages

Non-medical home care is professional support with daily living rather than treatment of illness: personal care, meals, housekeeping, medication reminders, transportation and companionship. It requires no doctor’s order and no diagnosis, just a need for a helping hand at home.

Non-Medical Home Care Services | Loving Homecare

Traditional Medicare does not cover non-medical hourly care, which it classifies as custodial care. Families typically pay privately, through long-term care insurance, or through VA Aid and Attendance for qualifying veterans and surviving spouses.

Non-Medical Home Care Services | Loving Homecare

Home Health Care

con_home_health_care · Concept · sameAs

Clinical treatment delivered at home by licensed professionals such as nurses and therapists, ordered by a doctor and usually covered by Medicare in short visits. Loving Homecare does not provide it.

1 source passage

Home health care is clinical: nurses and therapists making short, doctor-ordered visits, typically covered by Medicare. Non-medical home care is the daily support around it, for as many hours as a family chooses. One treats; the other keeps life running. Many seriously ill seniors need both.

Non-Medical Home Care Services | Loving Homecare

Activities of Daily Living (ADLs)

con_adl · Concept · sameAs

The routine self-care tasks a person must manage to live independently: bathing, dressing, grooming, toileting, eating and moving safely around the home.

1 source passage

Caregivers provide respectful help with the activities of daily living: bathing, grooming, dressing, toileting and mobility. This is the layer that keeps people safe, clean and confident, delivered with the discretion and patience personal tasks deserve.

Home Care Assistance Service | Loving Homecare

Aging in Place

con_aging_in_place · Concept · sameAs

Remaining in one’s own home as care needs increase, rather than moving to an assisted living community or care facility.

1 source passage

What decides whether someone can keep living at home is rarely a diagnosis. It is whether they can bathe safely, eat properly, take the right medication at the right time, and not be alone all day. Non-medical home care exists for that list.

Non-Medical Home Care Services | Loving Homecare

Dementia

con_dementia · Concept · sameAs

A progressive decline in memory, reasoning and daily function. Home care for dementia focuses on routine, safety and engagement rather than treatment.

1 source passage

People living with dementia do best inside a steady rhythm: the same caregiver, the same morning routine, meals at the same table at the same time. Care is built around lifelong habits and protected visit after visit.

In-Home Dementia & Alzheimer’s Care in Mission Viejo, CA | Loving Homecare

Alzheimer’s Disease

con_alzheimers · Concept · sameAs

The most common form of dementia, causing progressive memory loss and cognitive decline.

1 source passage

Dementia and Alzheimer’s care at home covers structure that lowers anxiety, safety without a locked door, and engagement rather than supervision alone: music from their era, old photo albums, and walks in a familiar neighbourhood.

Dementia & Alzheimer's Home Care Services | Loving Homecare

Respite Care

con_respite · Concept · sameAs

Temporary care that allows a family caregiver to rest, work or travel, delivered so the person receiving care keeps their normal routine.

1 source passage

Respite care is temporary care that steps in so a family caregiver can rest, work, travel or handle their own life. The caregiver takes over the daily support the family normally provides, from personal care and meals to medication reminders and company, for a few hours or a few weeks.

Respite Care Services | Loving Homecare

Palliative Care

con_palliative · Concept · sameAs

Care focused on relieving the symptoms and stress of serious illness rather than curing it. It can begin at any stage, including alongside active treatment.

1 source passage

Palliative care is comfort care focused on relieving the symptoms and stress of a serious or chronic illness and protecting quality of life, rather than curing the disease. The medical part comes from doctors and nurses; the daily comfort part at home is what a caregiver provides.

Palliative Care at Home | Loving Homecare

Standard 1

Certified Dementia Practitioner (CDP)

std_cdp · Standard

A dementia-care credential held by members of the Loving Homecare team, used to guide dementia care plans.

1 source passage

Care plans are guided by Certified Dementia Practitioners, and the caregivers who deliver them are trained in dementia-specific techniques: redirection, routine, communication that does not quiz or correct, and calm responses to agitation, sundowning and refusal.

Dementia & Alzheimer's Home Care Services | Loving Homecare

Regulation 2

California Home Care Aide Registry

reg_hca_registry · Regulation

The California Department of Social Services registry on which home care aides must be listed. Registration requires a Department of Justice background check.

1 source passage

Every caregiver is a registered home care aide on California’s Home Care Aide Registry, which requires a background check through the Department of Justice. On top of that: reference verification, in-person interviews and training before anyone enters a client’s home, plus ongoing supervision after.

Home Care Assistance Service | Loving Homecare

VA Aid and Attendance

reg_va_aid_attendance · Regulation

A United States Department of Veterans Affairs benefit that can fund in-home care for qualifying veterans and surviving spouses. Loving Homecare is an approved provider.
