A diminished ability to complete IADLs independently is common as individuals age, and it is often due to cognitive decline or physical limitations that accompany illnesses or injuries. This can result in seniors feeling as if they must burden family members to assist with many essential tasks or seek placement though their true goal is to age in place. Salus Homecare San Diego is here to help.

Salus Homecare of San Diego’s caregivers support seniors in their efforts to remain independent. With our help, seniors enjoy meals at home, keep clean homes and remain connected with friends, family and activities they enjoy. They also experience other health and lifestyle benefits that come from having the appropriate help available when they need it most.

Our caregiver was outstanding! She was here when my wife died! I don’t know what I would have done if she wasn’t here then. She “took over” and knew just what to do! She made the calls to get the right people here and she made my wife look so nice when we spent the last few moments with her! We appreciate everything that she did!
