Los Angeles is the entertainment capital of the United States and is great for seniors who like long sandy beaches and a variety of shopping options, and celebrity spotting. The weather in Los Angeles is particularly popular with senior citizens as the temperate climate can aid in relieving the symptoms of a number of health conditions.
Los Angeles has plenty of quality home care and health programs available for its senior citizens. According to the Genworth Cost of Care Survey 2019, the average cost of homemaker services is $5,243 per month and the average cost of home health aide services is $5,243 per month. Both services cost more in Los Angeles than the national average, which is $4,290 for homemaker services and $4,385 for home health aide services.
At Caring.com, we’ve compiled a comprehensive directory of every home care provider in the Los Angeles area – complete with types of care provided, services offered and reviews from families who’ve actually used the service. In addition to our in-depth provider listings, we’ve compiled a list of resources to help seniors and their families access all the tools they need to age in place safely and gracefully.

My mother gets along with the caregivers and I feel like I can trust them.
I’ve been with them for a long time. It was probably the pricing, but I understand they have costs. The care is good.

My mother’s illness took us by surprise and it was a difficult and emotional time. We were told by the doctor that her dementia would worsen, and she would need assistance with many aspects of her daily life. The caregiver we hired through Rose’s Agency Home Care has become someone my mother can depend on. Clementine is a caregiver and companion to my mother, and she has made my mother’s life much easier. Additionally, Gary has been an effective communicator and is always easy to reach. I would absolutely recommend this agency; they’ve helped my mother heal physically and emotionally.

I called the Torrrance branch of Home Instead to schedule my mother’s home be cleaned as she is on Hospice care and unable. I was specific that all her and her husband needed currently was cleaning the home every other week. The person I spoke with didn’t show up. Instead someone else showed up and told my mother’s husband that they would come daily for 14 days and took a check from them for $1,645.00. There isn’t anything they could do there each day, but worse is, that is not at all what I requested and they took advantage of my mother’s husband and sold him something they didn’t need. Who does this? Be Aware and careful. So disappointing & Sad, that others may not have family who can save them from being taken advantage of. 🙁

The people of this agency are THE BEST!! They were caring and understanding when they first came to my Dad’s home to explain their services. I have met each of the care-givers on their first day of service with my Dad, to introduce them to him, his home, what we would like their assistance with, and how he likes things done. Each and every care provider has been patient, kind and caring with my Dad, and he likes and enjoys them all, looking forward to the days they come. They have helped him with meals, laundry and gardening, ‘walks’ in the neighborhood on his scooter, and sometimes just provide quiet companionship and reminiscing. The office staff is Fantastic – they always answer the phone when I call, listen to what I have to say, and work with me to see that my Dad’s needs are met. When they need to call me with any updates, they are thorough and professional, but with the perfect touch of concern. Many years ago, I worked for an agency that provided the same type of services, and if I were to do this sort of work again, this is exactly the type of agency I would want to work with. Our family feels very lucky to have found Home Instead Burbank, and to have them caring for our Dad when we cannot be. Thank You!!

Los Angeles Home Care Resources
Home care services are only one of the pieces needed for seniors to gracefully age in place. There are many services and programs that are low-cost or free, that enable seniors to enjoy an independent lifestyle in the comfort of their own home, such as help with home modifications, meal delivery services, and more. Below, we’ve compiled a few of the most helpful resources in Los Angeles:

This is a federally funded program that provides home energy efficiency services to low-income households. Priority is given to senior citizens and individuals who are disabled.

Services offered by the program include the provision of energy-efficient refrigerators, attic insulation and low-flow showerheads.
Address: 221 N. Figueroa St., Ste. 500, Los Angeles, CA 90012

Phone Number: (888) 944-4477
This is a state-funded program that assists in paying for home-care services for low-income senior citizens.

Seniors must meet income requirements and have a health care professional fill out a form showing that they require at home assistance with health and basic services.
Determining Your Loved One’s Need for In-Home Care
Aging can be a difficult process, and loved ones may not always ask for help – often times it’s up to their family to evaluate their need for help around the house. While no two situations are exactly alike, this checklist can help you and your loved ones determine when it’s time to start the search for a home care provider.
Guidelines for Talking About In-Home Care
If you’ve determined that your loved one needs the assistance of a care provider in their home, it may be time for a difficult conversation. Handled correctly, however, this process can bring a family together and ensure that everyone’s concerns are addressed. Use this PDF as a starting point to help the conversation stay as positive and productive as possible.
