We are using CSS Home Care just one day a week right now for three hours each time. We had the opportunity to review a couple and settled for one. She has been a wonderful caregiver and has been very helpful and flexible in helping me in whatever my needs have been.

I am very thankful for the wonderful care and support that CSS Home Care of Oakland provided my father. Their agency's caring and responsive collaboration with me was greatly appreciated. Especially my father's caregiver who was very caring and compassionate. I highly recommend the services of CSS Home Care.

CSS Home Care of Oakland provided the necessary care for my aunt, who was diagnosed with dementia. From the very beginning, their team of professionals provided us with the tools that were required to take on this responsibility. Their caregivers were wonderful. They prepared her meals, took her to her scheduled appointments on time, administered her medications, helped her exercise, made sure she did fun things outside the house and provided her with companionship. My family will forever be grateful for their service. The work they do to help family members cope is a true testament to what’s great about humanity. They provide their clients and their family members with a sense of dignity and grace during a difficult time of their lives.

CSS Home Care of Oakland and Senior Services provided home care for my mom for two years. Mom was a challenging case; suffered from dementia, had trouble making decisions, but still wanted to stay in firm control. CSS helped me balance my mom's safety while still helping to make her feel good and have needed independence. My mom's caregivers were well trained, kind and considerate. At the end of her life, they provided great round the clock care and worked with hospice personnel to make sure she was as comfortable as possible. I deeply appreciate CSS for helping my family make the last two years of my mom's life better than I thought possible.

I am thankful for the excellent work CSS Home Care in Oakland has done for my mother. I was pleased that a case worker came to interview my mother and assess her needs and personality. They selected the correct caregiver for her needs - she gets along wonderfully with my mother. As I live hundreds of miles away, I feel confident that their company will advise me if there are any issues or problems my mother may have. It makes my life more comfortable knowing CSS Home Care’s staff and my mother’s caregiver are watching her. Their company is just what I was looking for, I feel lucky to have them as my mother’s helpers. Very professional.

My partner and I willingly took on the care of my elderly parents when the time came, however, we had no idea of the time commitment and all of the daily necessities that go into taking care of our elderly loved ones - e.g. cooking, cleaning, bathing and running errands. It became very stressful for us because both of us are working full time jobs and caring for them at the same time was very difficult. We quickly came to the realization that we definitely needed outside help. Enter CSS Home Care and Senior Services. CSS provided us with the skilled caregiver we needed, to be able to work while at the same time knowing that our parents were receiving the best in home care - what a stress reliever! I highly recommend CSS - they have truly been a lifesaver - for me and for my parents, who truly enjoy having someone to help them and attend to their needs, as well as to provide needed companionship.

I appreciated CSS Home Care of Oakland taking the time to sit in on interviews with me and sharing your opinion on the potential caregivers for my Dad. And that they visited to assess the dynamics between my Dad and the caregiver. As a matter of fact they were so right on with their caregiver recommendation. She really warmed up and my Dad tells me that he really likes her. I really do have peace of mind when I am at work knowing my Dad has some great quality people to spend time with him. Some people tell me they think he got better. His mind is stimulated daily so the decline is less noticeable. I would highly recommend CSS Home Care of Oakland for these reasons.

My dad said his first week went "better than he ever thought it would" with CSS Home Care of Oakland! He said he enjoyed having his caregiver to go grocery shopping with, and he really likes her cooking and conversation. I actually can't remember the last time that he sounded so upbeat. I am very thankful to CSS Home Care for the services they provide my father.

I am thankful to CSS Home Care of Oakland and their caregivers for showing compassionate and loving care to my Mom. My Dad would not have been able to handle her care without their help.
Elizabeth, I am a past client
Our caregivers from CSS Home Care of Oakland were very loyal and devoted and gave my mom TLC through and through. My mom's caregiver literally saved me that night and was totally by my side helping with all the right moves at the right times – knowing what was going to happen next. Then came the leadership from the office and the coordinating and listening and balancing the needs of everyone…a true and effective sounding board – making important decisions at a very tough time…We can't thank you and CSS enough.
