In-Home Care in Los Gatos, CA
Often the person who needs support in a Los Gatos home isn’t only the one receiving care. It’s also the spouse who has been doing it all: driving to appointments, cooking every meal and sleeping lightly in case something happens at night. CareMo’s founders lived that experience with their own families, and it’s why we started the company.
CareMo provides non-medical home care in Los Gatos that gives both of you relief. A caregiver takes on the daily tasks so the family caregiver can rest, run errands or simply be a spouse again. We’re a licensed California Home Care Organization (HCO #414700111), and Los Gatos is on our service list. MORE than just care, FAMILY care.

Coming home from the hospital
Los Gatos has its own hospital, El Camino Health’s Los Gatos Hospital on Pollard Road. Nearby Good Samaritan Hospital on Samaritan Drive in San Jose and Kaiser Permanente San Jose Medical Center also serve Los Gatos families.
A hospital stay is exhausting for everyone, and the family caregiver can come out of it as worn down as the patient. Let us share the load:
- a sitter can keep your loved one company at the hospital so you can go home and sleep
- at home, a caregiver can give medication reminders, prepare meals and help with bathing and dressing
- a caregiver can drive your loved one to follow-up appointments
Call us the moment you have a discharge date. Our phones are answered seven days a week, and care can usually begin the same day once a contract is in place.
