Aging in Place, Stay Safe at Home

Welcome to this blog, we operate a home care agency servicing the elderly and disabled in the Bay Area. This blog is primarily a news outlet to share information on aging in place, and mostly a news aggregate on relevant topics. You can also visit our website for a lot of industry information and links to social media. https://starlightcaregivers.com/ 

I was inspired to start this blog today after seeing a Patch blog on elder abuse. California alone counts nearly 200,000 annual cases of elder abuse and this is rapidly growing due to baby boomer masses. 

Please report any elder abuse to social services. They can and will help. This could be your neighbor or relative absusing the vulnerable. 
Call the Hotline 24/7: Elder/Dependent Adult Abuse 24 Hour Reporting (408) 755-7690 or 1-(800) 414-2002 (CA only)
