"I used TheKey - Napa for my wife. They were very good, but they weren't consistent with their staff because people would come and go and I wasn't real happy with having strangers always in my house. The latter part of their service, the girl that I ended up with was awesome. She was an excellent lady, but I only used them four days a week, four hours a day. The lady that was taking care of my wife was the one that told me I should get her in a care home. She was still using their service up until August of last year, and I used it for about a year and a half before that. They helped me clean the house. They cooked meals for my wife. The latter part, they did help me with mopping and running the sweeper in the house. They did mainly light things. The problem with them was the staff was never the same at the beginning. I'd get somebody one week and another week, somebody else would show up and they'd be there a couple of weeks. It wasn't consistent and I didn't like all that activity in and out of my house."

"I have been using them for a couple of months now. They are making sure my husband doesn't get into any trouble. I have been very happy with all of them. They're very nice, very helpful, and very responsive, which I appreciate. It is hard to get people to come into a private home on the first time basis but they work to make sure that it is as pleasant as it can be."

"We have been working with Right at Home for several months to assist us with caregiving for a member of our family. We have found them to be professional, dependable, geniunely caring and affordable. They have been flexible as far as scheduling and have assisted with transportation needs to doctors, grocery shopping, light housekeeping as well as companionship. They have provided the security and assurance we need to know our cousin is cared for and safe. Caring for an elderly loved one can be difficult and RAH in Marin has given us the support we needed. Hired RAH to assist with caregiving for cousin. "

"This in-home care agency took on my mother's case, even though she was an extremely challenging patient. They spent a great deal of time understanding our needs as a family and working with us to come up with a plan that worked. They were extremely flexible and understanding. We had to warn them ahead of time that there would be days when she would not let the caregiver inside the house, and indeed that happened and they were very patient. The caregivers were skilled and kind. The service was reasonably priced; it was more expensive than it would have been for us to hire someone independently, but we had the security of agency management and a backup caregiver was available whenever needed.

"We used At Home Nursing earlier this year. It was hard for me to find help seven days a week. I asked them if I could get an additional day, but their minimum was a three-hour minimum, and that was way past what I could afford. Even though they originally found me somebody for one hour, they just wouldn't accommodate additional days for anything less than three hours. They did the same kind of service like the other companies, and the people they provided were OK. However, I had an experience with one of them that I didn't find very pleasing. I went to see my mother, and the caregiver sat and just talked to me for an hour and a half. It's OK if she's just being social, and I thought it was nice, but it turned out she charged me for the time. When I found out about that, I was kind of irritated. I called the agency, and they said they have to charge me whenever they're there, from the minute they're there until the minute they leave. The attitude that 'she shouldn't have done that, we won't charge you for that,' never came up. That also kind of grated me that somebody could be that greedy as a caregiver, and they wouldn't consider that being out of hand. I was with them for four months, and they were one of the companies that initially were able to provide a one-hour service. Their hourly rate is OK, but if you need help twice a day, they'll charge you for six hours, and nobody can really afford that -- if you just need help with changing and that sort of thing. I have a neighbor that also uses At Home Nursing, but she's in a different location, and she seems satisfied with them. If you can afford the minimum hours that they require, then I wouldn't say I would not hire them. "

"My wife is bedbound, so they do hygiene, help with feeding, cleaning, bed change, etc. We've been with AmeriCare Sonoma for three months now. They've been the only organization that has found somebody that could come for hour visits and somebody that could come seven days a week. The caregiver also works part-time at a convalescent facility, and she has credentials. She is kind and caring, which is really important, conscientious, and patient. However, there were occasions when she had to go out of town or for a vacation, and they're kind of understaffed. There's such a high demand for caregivers where I live, and there's not an awful lot of them available. Happily, I was able to connect with AmeriCare. Instead of three companies, I got rid of two of them and kept one because the person was willing to work seven days a week. "

"Homewatch caregivers helped care for our mother over the course of the year as she recovered from a broken shoulder. The husband and wife team of Michael and Hillary were always available to us even on short notice. They made a point of being present to introduce new caregivers upon initial visits. The nurses were very attentive and flexible with regard to scheduling and providing additional care. I am pleased to say that my mother recovered from her injury and has since moved into a local assisted living center. I have and will recommend Homewatch Caregivers to families in search of homecare. We knew she was well taken care of."

Given the high cost of in-home care, many people use one or more forms of financial assistance to cover the expenses. Below, we explain some of the most common sources of financial help for paying for in-home care. If none of these options are available to you, you can reach out to your Area Agency on Aging or Aging and Disability Resource Center to learn about local resources.
While assistance with the cost of care can be a lifeline for seniors hoping to age in place, they often need assistance with other areas of life as well. Seniors in Rohnert Park have access to several resources, including help with meals, energy costs and tax exemptions. These activities are designed to make aging in place more affordable for seniors in the area. Seniors should contact these programs directly if they wish to apply for assistance.
| Resource | Contact | Service |
|---|---|---|
| Meals on Wheels | (707) 525-0383 | Meals on Wheels provides seniors who cannot easily leave their homes or are disabled with access to five healthy, fresh meals accounting for 1/3 of their recommended daily requirements each week. |
| North Coast Energy Services | (800) 233-4480 | North Coast Energy Services offers several energy-related programs for low-income homeowners and renters. These include providing assistance with paying bills, discounted utility connections, weatherization services and HVAC repair or replacement. |
| Homeowner Exemption | (707) 565-1888 | In Sonoma, seniors can write off up to $7,000 of property value each year if it is their primary place of residence. To apply, seniors must contact the Assessor's Office. |
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.


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.
