Caregiving Control

Working with San Luis Obispo Caregivers, a Referral Agency, gives the client more caregiving control. Instead of rolling the dice on a home care agency that will assign you a caregiver based on availability, you will meet and decide whether you want to work with your caregiver through an interview. You will negotiate the rate and schedule directly with the aid that is referred to you.

I always say it’s a 90% personality match. After all, your loved one is going to spend a lot of time with this person. It is critical that they like each other. Whether you are looking for a caregiver for your loved one’s home or if you are interested in researching available Assisted Living options.

David will meet with you right away to assess the current situation and help you create a custom plan. 
Most people want to stay home with a caregiver. We have been helping local families age in place over the last seven years, and we have earned 5-star reviews assisting locals in finding qualified and experienced independent caregivers.  Independent Caregivers have more experience than other agencies and typically have chosen caregiving as a career, not a job!
Another option for people who may not have a full-time caregiver’s resources may opt to research the local care communities.  After visiting the local assisted living communities and care homes, I only recommend those that meet your loved one’s needs.   Only the good ones get through our vetting process, and this helps me match your needs and create a win-win for your family.
Family Dynamics and Emotions
Moving a loved one or hiring a caregiver is usually the right decision for the family, but it doesn’t make it easy. The decision often changes their everyday life and can be emotional. This process is made easier with some knowledgeable guidance and experience.

David Wood, Owner, SLO Caregivers

San Luis Obispo Caregivers was created in memory of my Grandfather, Tracy Gordon Wood II. My mission is to honor him by providing trustworthy, compassionate, and competitively priced caregiving services to seniors in my community. After 25 years in the financial industry and the decision to leave behind a successful 6-year position as the Chief Operating Officer of SESLOC Federal Credit Union, I created San Luis Obispo Home Care. This decision served my desire to make a difference and support the growing needs of seniors in my community. As my business grew and I leaned heavily on my financial background, I realized there was a much more cost-effective way to provide seniors with the care they deserve. This realization led to the creation of San Luis Obispo Caregivers, a referral agency and SLO Senior Placement, a free resource for families looking for independent or assisted living options for seniors. Ultimately, I listen, assess your situation and recommend various options that are available for your family.
