Gracefully nestled in the foothills of the Santa Cruz Mountains, is San Martin, a tiny village with a little over seven thousand residents. Although most residents enjoy home ownership this village has preserved its humility, where majestic million-dollar homes comfortably stand alongside old family homesteads. 

It may be the only town with no Starbucks in sight! San Martin is happy with its farms, ranches, wineries and orchards. Tucked in an unpresuming area is its best secret--it hosts what travel and golf magazines hail as one of the top resorts in California–Corde Valle, which has hosted PGA and USGA championships and offers a luxurious experience at its finest. 

Lucky for us at Visiting Angels Gilroy®, it’s a village that has recognized the importance of home care and its residents have welcomed our caregivers!   

Aging in place in San Martin is an easy decision because it enjoys the moderating influence of the Pacific Ocean which translates to a Mediterranean climate, encouraging a more active lifestyle. 

But as we all know, at some point in life, no matter how active you are, you may need assistance to be able to continue to live in your own home or receive one-on-one care. That’s where Visiting Angels can help with senior home care in San Martin, CA.

Senior Home Care That Goes Beyond Just ‘Activities of Daily Living’

Visiting Angels provides personal care (bathing, dressing, incontinent care, medication reminders, transfer-assist), as well as light housekeeping, errands, appointments, exercise, etc. Our goal, however, is to help clients work towards total wellness and hence, on top of personal care, we offer emotional support like a family member would.

Our caregivers are trained to have a better understanding of the psychology of aging and mental health, as well as the client’s specific challenges.  They are also coached to establish an emotional connection with the client to gain trust and hence, be able to assist the client(s) in achieving a level of independence realistic to their situation.  

In-Home Senior Care with Individualized Care Plans

Visiting Angels focuses on creating individualized care plans for each client because we recognize that not all people are the same. This ensures that both the physical and emotional needs of our client(s) are met. 

For example, if a client has special dietary needs (low salt/fat/sugar), we make every effort to follow the dietary plan provided by the family; if a client needs to gain weight, we focus on nutritious meals; if the client needs to exercise, we think of how we could encourage movement; if the client has anxiety, we work hard to eliminate triggers.  We even provide our caregivers with specific training when necessary. 

As a Choice Provider for the Veterans Affairs, we work with veterans suffering from PTSD and anxiety disorders, and our caregivers are trained to deal with such challenges.
