Castro Valley Plan of Care
Homewatch CareGivers of Castro Valley acknowledges that every person has unique care needs,
which is why a customized plan of care is created for each client. Each
care plan is based on several criteria including the client’s health
and physical condition, any existing ailments or disorders, personal history,
interests and preferences. The plan of care is also designed to address
current abilities and to maintain quality of life. The caregiver is then
matched to the requirements specified in the plan of care to ensure that
the client is provided with companion care that can help alleviate loneliness
or boredom, or more hands-on personal care to assist with activities of
daily living.
