A Few Words From Our Clients

I chose to work with HomeWatch of Tustin because they not only care about the well-being of their clients but their caregivers, as well. They don’t throw someone in at random and hope it works out; they sit and review all the available caregivers and see exactly who would be a good fit based on all they know about each client and the caregivers. I feel heard and seen working here; my problems don’t get swept under the rug but are approached with a “are you okay?” and “how can we fix this” attitude. They care about the safety of all involved, they’re intentional about the entire process, and they genuinely care for each person they have under their wing. 1000% recommend working here and contacting the office to see how it can work for you or your loved one.
