Berkeley parents tend to be fiercely independent, and many have no intention of leaving the house they have lived in since they taught, studied or raised children here. The hills make that harder every year: long staircases, steep driveways and streets where walking to the shops is no longer realistic.
The help families ask for here is usually practical and specific. Someone to drive to appointments, keep the kitchen stocked, help with a shower on the days it feels risky, and be good company for an afternoon.
Many of our Berkeley clients have adult children who live elsewhere. Booking by the hour, with no minimum, lets those families start with one visit a week and add more only when it is needed.
Many of our caregivers speak a language besides English. Tell your Care Captain which language your parent is most comfortable in, and we will match for it wherever we can.
Every service is available at one hourly rate, booked by the hour.
One hourly rate covers every service, including personal care, with no minimum booking and no long-term contract. Traditional Bay Area agencies typically require a three- to four-hour minimum per visit, and often 12 to 20 hours a week. A family that needs six hours a week can end up paying for eighteen.
With Carenami you pay only for the hours you use, at rates up to 50% lower than traditional agencies. Your Care Captain will give you the rate and a monthly estimate on the first call.
One hourly rate covers every service, including personal care, with no minimum booking and no contract. Most Berkeley families book three to seven hours a week. Your Care Captain gives you the rate and a monthly estimate on the first call, and there is no assessment fee.
Usually within one to three days of your first call. If your parent is coming home from the hospital, tell us. We keep same-week capacity for hospital discharges.
Usually, yes. Tell your Care Captain the cross streets and you will get a straight answer on the first call.
