Congrats and Thanks Julia!Pleasanton Caregiver of the MonthApril 2014

Congratulations to Pleasanton’s Caregiver of the Month for April 2014!

We’re honored to work with Julia.  Recently Julia was working with 2 clients (father and daughter). As you can imagine this was a touching assignment and Julia always went in with compassion and grace. Julia brought a sense of relief to the clients’ wife and mother as she was going through a tremendous amount of stress and emotions. The client’s wife introduced Julia to their family as “she is my right hand, she is my left hand; she is my everything.”

Julia you truly are amazing and have the natural born caregiving gene. We are so lucky to have you on our TEAM!

One client resides at an Alzheimer’s and Dementia Care Center and the staff there have noticed a great change in the client since Ken started. They recently said “We are so pleased to have Ken. He is a gem, and she is really happy. Thank you so much for sending him to us”.

Thank you Ken for all you do!

On February 4, 2014 Erin Winter received an outstanding Certificate of Appreciation and Recognition from the City Council of Dublin, for the support Hired Hands Homecare provides to the amazing City of Dublin Senior Center.

Hired Hands is dedicated to involvement in the communities we serve and honored to have the opportunity to support the seniors of the Tri-Valley through sponsorship of the Dublin Senior Center.  This senior center creates a warm environment and enriching activities and social interaction for approximately 200 seniors per day and is a shining example of community support and engagement of its senior population.

A BIG Congrats and Thank You goes out to Sofia, our Caregiver of the Month in our Pleasanton office for February 2014!

We have had the pleasure of working with Sofia since September 2013.  She is currently working with 2 clients; one of which has Dementia and is currently on Hospice. The client’s daughter-in-law states “I feel like Sophia is my partner. She is just a GEM!  Whenever something is going on with my mother-in-law, I ask Sofia her opinion and she is always spot on with mine.  She is such a gift!” 

Sofia, we are THRILLED to have you on our TEAM!  Many Thanks for all you do!  Your impact on our clients and their families is greatly appreciated!

 



Kudos to Hired Hands Homecare

Thanks everyone for all your donations and kindness in helping our countrymen.

Thanks Erin for coordinating this effort; thanks Michelle for being a herald to make this known and moving.

Since the very first time we’ve heard of this devastation, my friends and I have been praying for people like all of you to reach out to. My friends who personally visited and handed our donations in all forms (monetary and the like) could not control their tears/emotions for what they have seen. Our one time plan of them flying to Tacloban and vicinities was immediately changed to several trips. Our fund raising overflowed and assistance they were able to provide did not just end in distributing the donations but in personally cooking and feeding several families.

This is all because of kind-hearted people like you.

Again, thank you and God Bless.

As many of you know, we have the honor of working with many amazing people of Philippine descent on a regular basis.  We hope and pray for their families well-being after the devastating typhoon.  In hopes of helping, we have connected with an intricate network who are providing much needed resources where they are needed most.  We are amazed and overwhelmed with everyone’s generosity in their donations thus far, and wanted everyone to know that every item is truly being put to good use.  Below is a bit if recent dialog in regards to the needs, and the help that we together are contributing.

Dear Lynn,

You are an angel! Thank you so much for your support, and your unending generosity and kindness.

My best,
Dulce

Hired Hands Delivers

“I was using another agency and they were not able to provide the care that was required. Hired Hands was suggested by the Alzheimer’s facility where my mother-in-law was in.

The caregiver has a perfect personality to handle my mother. She is very calm and soothing and she is able to cope with my mother in-law. She is really good about observing my mom’s actions and how to calm her down before things get really bad.

They are providing all the care that was promised and that I asked for, and I have already recommended Hired Hands twice for home care.”
