It's no secret, most of us would like to stay in our own home as we age. Yet, sometimes our loved ones just need a little extra help to remain comfortable at home. That's where Always Best Care can help....we are dedicated to exceeding expectations....always
They say that your golden years are the best years of your life. For most older Americans, that's how it should be - a time to relax, reflect, and live life in a familiar place. After all, senior citizens in the U.S. have worked tirelessly to build a better economy, serve their communities, and raise families.
However, as seniors grow older, sometimes they cannot live independently without someone by their side to provide care. Unfortunately, some older Americans aren't able to rely on their adult children for help. The reality in today's world is that family members do not have the skills or time to dedicate to caring for their parents. That's where Always Best Care Senior Services comes in.
Our in-home care services are for people who prefer to stay at home as they grow older but need ongoing care that family or friends cannot provide. More and more older adults prefer to live in the comforts or their home rather than in an assisted living community. Home care in Acampo, CA, is a safe, effective way to give your loved ones the care they need when they need it the most.
Home Care Services
Service AreasSince 1996, Always Best Care has provided non-medical in-home care for seniors to help them maintain a healthy lifestyle as they age. We are proud to have helped tens of thousands of seniors to maintain a higher level of dignity and respect. We focus on providing seniors with the highest level of home care available so that they may live happily and independently.
Unlike some senior care companies, we genuinely want to be included in our clients' lives. We believe that personalized care is always the better option over a "one size fits all" approach. To make sure our senior clients receive the best care possible, we pair them with compassionate caregivers who understand their unique needs.
The Always Best Care difference lies in life's little moments - where compassionate care and trustworthy experience come together to help seniors live a fruitful, healthy life.

Home is where the heart is. While that saying can sound a tad cliche, it's especially true for many seniors living in America. When given a choice, older adults most often prefer to grow older at home. An AARP study found that three out of four adults over the age of 50 want to stay in their homes and communities as they age. When you begin to think about why, it makes sense. Home offers a sense of security, comfort, and familiarity.
The truth is, as we age we begin to rely on others for help. When a family is too busy or lives too far away to fulfill this role, in-home senior care is often the best solution. Home care services allow seniors to enjoy personal independence while also receiving trustworthy assistance from a trained caregiver.
At Always Best Care, we offer a comprehensive range of home care services to help seniors stay healthy while they get the help they need to remain independent. As your senior loved one ages, giving them the gift of senior care is one of the best ways to show your love, even if you live far away.
To give our senior clients the best care possible, we offer a full spectrum of in-home care services
If your senior loved one has specific care needs, our personal care services are a great choice to consider. Personal care includes the standard caregiving duties associated with companion care and includes help with tasks such as dressing and grooming. Personal care can also help individuals with chronic conditions like diabetes or Parkinson's or dementia.
Common personal care services include assistance with:
Sometimes, seniors need helpful reminders to maintain a high quality of life at home. If you or your senior has trouble with everyday tasks like cooking, our home helper services will be very beneficial.
Common home helper care services include assistance with:
Using this kind of care is a fantastic way to make life easier for you or your senior loved one. At Always Best Care, our talented caregivers often fill the role of a companion for seniors. That way, older adults can enjoy their favorite activities and hobbies while also receiving the care they need daily or weekly.
Common companionship services include:
According to AARP, more than 53 million adults living in the U.S. provide care to someone over 50 years old. Unfortunately, these caregivers experience stress, exhaustion, and even depression. Our respite care services help family caregivers address urgent obligations, spend time with their children, and enjoy other activities. Perhaps more importantly, respite care gives family members time to recharge and regroup. Taking personal time to de-stress helps reduce the risks of caregiver burnout.
When it comes to non-medical home care, our goal is to become a valuable part of your senior's daily routine. That way, we may help give them the highest quality of life possible. We know that staying at home is important for your loved one, and we are here to help make sure that is possible. If you have been on the fence about non-medical home care, there has never been a better time than now to give your senior the care, assistance, and companionship they deserve.
Always Best Care in-home services are for older adults who prefer to stay at home but need ongoing care that friends and family cannot provide. In-home care is a safe, effective way for seniors to age gracefully in a familiar place and live independent, non-institutionalized lives. The benefits of non-medical home care are numerous. Here are just a few reasons to consider senior care services from Always Best Care.
According to AARP, 9 out of 10 seniors prefer to age in place within the comfort of their own home. With in-home care, seniors have a way to stay at home, receive the care they need, and maintain a sense of independence, improving overall wellness.
If you or a member of your family have assumed the role of caregiver for your senior loved one, you know how stressful the job can be. Between caregiver burnout and constant worry, being a family caregiver is hard. In-home care relieves your burden and gives you peace of mind knowing that your senior family member is in expert hands.
Unlike many senior care facilities where the staff and residents rotate frequently, seniors can foster new friendships and build bonds with their caregiver. Seniors who socialize on a regular basis are often happier, which fosters positivity and leads to increased wellbeing.
No two seniors need the same kind of in-home care assistance. That is why each of our care plans are tailored to meet our client's individual needs. We offer plans that cover everything from light housekeeping to more involved duties like transportation to doctor's appointments. Our Care Coordinators will work closely with you to develop a personalized plan to ensure your senior's needs are exceeded.
Always Best Care offers a full array of care options for clients at all levels of health. With our trusted elderly care services, your loved one will receive the level of care necessary for them to enjoy the highest possible quality of life.

While it's true that some seniors have complicated medical needs that prevent them from staying at home, aging in place is often the best arrangement for seniors and their families. With a trusted caregiver, seniors have the opportunity to live with a sense of dignity and do so as they see fit.
In-home care makes it possible for millions of seniors to age in place every year. Rather than moving to a unfamiliar assisted living community, seniors have the chance to stay at home where they feel the happiest and most comfortable.
In-home care is a valuable resource that empowers seniors to age in place on their own terms. However, a big concern for many families and their loved ones is how much in-home care costs. If you're worried that in-home care is too expensive, you may be pleasantly surprised to learn that it is one of the most affordable senior care arrangements available.
Typically, hiring an Always Best Care in-home caregiver for a few hours a week is more affordable than sending your loved one to a long-term care facility.
At Always Best Care, we will work closely with you and your family to develop a care plan that not only meets your care needs, but your budget requirements, too. Once we discover the level of care that you or your senior need, we develop an in-home care plan that you can afford.
In addition to our flexible care options, families should also consider the following resources to help offset potential home care costs:
When you or your senior loved one needs assistance managing daily tasks at home, finding a qualified caregiver can be challenging. It takes a special kind of person to provide reliable care for your senior loved one. However, a caregiver's role involves more than meal preparation and medication reminders. Many seniors rely on their caregivers for companionship, too!
Our companion care services give seniors the chance to socialize in a safe environment and engage in activities at home. These important efforts boost morale and provide much-needed relief from repetitive daily routines. A one-on-one, engaging conversation can sharpen seniors' minds and give them something in which to be excited.
At Always Best Care, we only hire care providers that we would trust to care for our own loved ones. Our senior caregivers in Acampo, CA, understand how important it is to listen and communicate with their seniors. A seemingly small interaction, like a short hug goodbye, can make a major difference in a senior's day. Instead of battling against feelings of isolation, seniors begin to look forward to seeing their caregiver each week.
Our caregivers must undergo extensive training before they work for Always Best Care. In addition, our caregivers receive ongoing training throughout the year. This training ensures that their standard of care matches up to the high standards we've come to expect. During this training, they will brush up on their communication skills, safety awareness, and symptom spotting. That way, your loved one receives the highest level of non-medical home care from day one.
The first step in getting quality in-home care starts with a personal consultation with an experienced care coordinator. This initial consultation is crucial for our team to learn more about you or your elderly loved one to discover the level of care required.
Our caregivers are trained to spot changes that clients exhibit, like mental and physical decline. As your trusted senior care company, we will constantly assess and update your care plan to meet any new emotional, intellectual, physical, and emotional needs.
If you have never considered in-home care before, we understand that you and your family may have concerns about your care plan and its care coordinator. To help give you peace of mind, know that every team member and caregiver must undergo comprehensive training before being assigned to a care plan.
An assessment of your senior loved one and the environment they currently live in
An in-depth discussion of the needs of your senior loved one
Reviewing a detailed care plan that will meet your senior loved one's needs
When you're ready, we encourage you to contact your local Always Best Care representative to set up a care consultation. Our Care Coordinators would be happy to meet with you in person to get to know you better, discuss your needs, and help put together a personalized care plan specific to your needs.

ACAMPO, Calif. —
As the floodwaters continue to impact the Acampo area of San Joaquin County, residents are doing their best to protect their property as officials work to clear flooded roadways.
The San Joaquin County Sheriff's Office issued mandatory evacuation orders Monday for the Arbor Mobile Home Park, located right off Highway 99 near Woodbridge Road. The floodwaters in the park, which in some spots was waist-deep, spilled over into a small apartment complex right next to it.
Resident Larry Rayburn said two of the units got water inside. Rayburn, who has lived at the apartment complex for more than 20 years, said the previous flooding at the Arbor Mobile Home Park never impacted the apartments before.
While Rayburn's unit is OK, resident Francisco Juarez said he was worried about his apartment. When he spoke to KCRA 3 on Monday night, the flooding was just inches from entering Juarez's apartment. Juarez used a broom to try and sweep the water away from his unit, and he also dipped a bucket into the floodwaters and dumped them in another area.

"I'm trying to prevent that from happening right here," Juarez said. "If it gets anymore, it's going to start flooding into my house, into my apartment."
Caltrans shut down Highway 99 in both directions from Peltier Road, near the community of Acampo, to Turner Road in Lodi, due to the flooding. CalTrans said northbound lanes were closed as of 11 a.m. Monday at Turner Road, and the full road closure in both directions began at around 5:30 p.m. when overflowing waterways began to flood Highway 99. As of Monday night, Caltrans did not have an estimated time or reopening.

Several side streets near Highway 99 were submerged in water Monday, including a portion of Acampo Road just east of the highway. That is where the floodwaters surrounded two schools with the Lodi Unified School District, Houston School and Joe Serna Jr. Charter School. School district officials decided to cancel classes because of the conditions. The school district sent KCRA 3 the following statement about the decision:
"Due to significant flooding around the schools and on the school campuses, Lodi Unified made the decision to close Houston School and Joe Serna Jr. Charter for the safety of staff and students. School is canceled for both schools on Tuesday, January 17. Lodi USD Maintenance and Operations employees will assess the sites and determine if it is safe for students and staff to return to their schools on Wednesday for class."

ACAMPO, California — When heavy rains come, floodwater is what usually greets Acampo resident Brian Treadwell in his driveway.
In January 2017, his basement flooded ruining furniture and more that he is still dealing with today.
"It got into our garage, at least a foot in there," said Treadwell, who has lived in Acampo eight years.
It's what residents have had to put up with dating back to the 1950s. But suddenly this year the floodwaters disappeared.
"Oh, it's been really well. Ever since they brought it out we've had no problems," added Treadwell.

What changed? The newly completed, nearly $2.5 million drainage system was installed by the San Joaquin County Public Works Department.
"Since the installation, we have had zero issues out there," said Awni Taha, the project manager and engineer with the Development Services Division of the San Joaquin County Public Works Department.
How it works is rainwater is collected in drains alongside Acampo Road through the heart of town.
More 5,000 feet of underground pipe feeds the water into giant underground storage sump pump facility next to the Highway 99 frontage Road north of Heritage Road.
If necessary, the water is then released into an existing concrete ditch that parallels the frontage road. The hope down the road is to capture and save the water.
"That will lead to an area that would be considered for groundwater recharge sometime in the future," Taha said.
Desi Garza has lived here 25 years. He says so far, so good.
"It's holding up very well, actually. Kind of surprised about it," said Garza.
The project was paid in full with local road district funds and federal grant money. It's been so successful, it's actually award-winning. Just last year, it won Project of the Year from the American Public Works Association in the Environment - Flood Control Category.

Peltier Winery awarded Grand Gold and 95.33 points for their 2021 Vermentino from the 2nd edition of the Vermentino International Competition in Sardinia.
LODI, Calif., July 19, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- This year, family owned and operated, Peltier Winery & Vineyards in Acampo, California, sent their 2021 Vermentino ($18) to the motherland for judgment against producers of this lesser known varietal from around the world. They brought home a Grand Gold Medal, 95 points and a top 5 ranking from the competition that would make their Nonna & Nonno proud. The second Vermentino International Wine Concourse was held in Cagliari, capital of the Italian island of Sardinia, where about half of the world's Vermentino is grown. The competition celebrates wineries working to uphold and improve high quality standards along with the best expressions of the varietal around the globe.
Two years after Peltier Winery was established in 2001, their first vintage of Vermentino was harvested from the winery location in the heart of California's Lodi Appellation. After many years of learning the vineyard personality and experimentation in winemaking, Peltier has gained a reputation for their Vermentino both on the bulk market and in the bottle under their own Peltier brand. The varietal is known for its vibrant aromatics and refreshing, light body. The Lodi winery picks their Vermentino early and based on aromas to achieve those bright citrus notes and low sugar for a smooth, easy drinking style that they (and their consumers) enjoy.
"Focusing on quality in the vineyard is what allows the natural characteristics of a varietal and the vineyard personality to show. It also means there's no need for manipulation throughout the winemaking process" says proprietor and 3rd generation Lodi grower, Rodney Schatz. "It was also intriguing to take a chance on a lesser known varietal and see what we could do. We're always trying to innovate and differentiate ourselves. The thing about taking a risk, is that whether the outcome is what you want or not, you learn something. We knew our Vermentino was good, this award tells the rest of the world!"
Rod has always been a thought leader in the industry and advocate for California growers having served as Chairman of the California Association of Winegrape Growers and President of the Lodi Winegrape Commission. When it comes to his own winery and vineyards, that same forward thinking mentality applies. Peltier was one of the first in the area to certify 100% of their vineyards sustainable by the Lodi Rules program and one of the first in the state to install a worm farm to treat the winery's process water.
Rod's Italian roots and the climate of the region where he and his family farm over 1,200 acres of vineyard contribute to the winery's preference for Italian varietals including the Reserve Teroldego ($60), a bold red originally from the Alto Adige region, and the 2020 Teresa Marengo Pinot Grigio ($20) named after Rod's Nonna, a woman who loved to feed her loved ones. However, it's not all Italian wines at Peltier. They're about producing high quality grapes from their estate vineyards, over-delivering on quality wine for the price point and continuously improving the process from grape to glass. Other must try wines that Peltier has gained a following for include their crisp Sauvignon Blanc ($18), a delicate, full of berry notes, barrel aged Pinot Noir ($30) and a Brut Rosé Sparkling Wine ($45) made in the Méthode Champenoise.

ACAMPO, Calif. — Lodi area grape grower Layne Montgomery is still in disbelief as he looks upon his 17 acres, nearly four acres planted, under water.
"It looks like a big, fat mess to me," said Montgomery, wearing knee high waders and sloshing around in his flooded vineyard. "It's bewildering. This happened so fast. We are in a state of shock really still."
Montgomery owns the m2 Winery off E. Peltier Road in Acampo. With 19 years in the wine business, he's never seen his property flood this badly before.
The severe flooding happened Sunday as water quickly began filling up his vineyard stocked seven varieties of wine grapes.
"Right now I think we're fine with the water not hurting the vines because they're dormant, but once the vines come out of dormancy I'm just praying this is going to be dried out by then," said Montgomery.
95% of m2 Wine's business is direct to consumer meaning people come to the winery to purchase their wine.
But, with the parking lots flooded, they can't.
Fortunately, he also sells his wine on his website, allowing some customers to get their orders without having to come to the location.
The Lodi Wine growing region has 85 wineries, 750 growers and 100,000 acres.
According to the Lodi Winegrape Commission, 20% of the premium wines sold in California are from the Lodi grape growing region.
The Lodi Winegrape Commission says water in vineyards isn't a problem and should drain off.
But what if it doesn't?
"If they continue to stay under water for months at a time which we might see with some of the vineyards along the Mokelumne River where they continue to release a lot of water out of Camanche that can become problematic later in the spring," says Stuart Spencer of the Lodi Winegrape Commission.
Spencer also says the flooding is beneficial for vineyards for a few reasons.
"One is we're replenishing the ground water and the soil moisture so the vines should have a good start once the growing season comes. Two, the standing water is also going to kill some vineyard pests that reside in the soil in the winter months," added Spencer.
For growers flooded out like Layne Montgomery, at the moment, it's literally wade and see.
"There's just nothing that can be done about this right now except not give up I guess," added Montgomery.
