In-Home Care in San Bruno, CA
San Bruno stretches from the flatlands near the Bay up into the foothills, where hilly streets in Crestmoor, Portola Highlands, Mills Park and Rollingwood can make a quick walk to the mailbox feel like a workout. For an older adult, or anyone recovering from a stroke or surgery, everyday tasks like bathing, cooking, driving and getting up the front steps can become the hardest part of the day.
CareMo provides non-medical home care in San Bruno that takes the risk and strain out of those tasks. A caregiver can help your loved one move safely, keep up with meals and medications, and get to appointments, while giving you peace of mind. We’re a licensed California Home Care Organization (HCO #414700111) based in nearby Daly City. MORE than just care, FAMILY care.

Coming home from the hospital
San Bruno sits between several major hospitals.

Some families also come home from San Francisco hospitals such as UCSF and Sutter CPMC.
Stroke recovery doesn’t end at discharge. Some people recover within three to four months, while for others recovery is ongoing. Throughout that time, a CareMo home care aide can:
- help with bathing, dressing, oral hygiene and using the restroom
- prepare meals that follow the dietitian’s plan
- give medication reminders to support blood pressure, cholesterol and diabetes management
- support the rehabilitation plan and exercises your loved one’s care team recommends
- provide companionship and encourage safe outings, since socialization is an important part of stroke recovery
If your loved one goes to a rehab or skilled nursing facility first, our sitters can keep them company there until they’re ready to come home. When that day comes, we’re reachable seven days a week to get home care going.
