From time to time, we post information about reliable resources in Sonoma County for elder services. The folks at Creative Counseling for Elders and Families are a wonderful team who can make significant changes in the lives of seniors in the community and our loved ones.
Creative Counseling for Elders and Families believes that staying active physically as well as mentally are key to maintaining levels of functioning. To this end we offer Mobility Assistance by a licensed personal trainer with extensive experience working with the elderly population. We design specific individual programs that best support our client’s continued health and mobility.
Vicky McEnhill was certified in 1997 at the renowned Cooper Institute in Dallas, Texas in Personal Training, Biomechanics of Strength Training, and Personal Training for the Senior Population. She recently completed her certification with the Arthritis Foundation. Vicky is an accomplished cyclist, runner and mountain climber. Although she trains individuals of all levels of fitness, she specializes in serving the senior population concentrating on strength and balance to improve and enhance activities of daily living and improving mobility with an emphasis on basic function.

From the Heart Home Care: “We’re always here when you need us!”

Once in a while an extraordinary group of people are able to collaborate their services to provide superior, professional care for the eldery in our community. This week we are happy to feature From the Heart Home Care who has been working with Sonoma Country residents since 2001 and is a company that professionals and the public can trust to provide quality senior support services. They have also been ranked a A+ Better Business Bureau rated company.
From the Heart Home Care, Inc., is a locally owned and operated non-medical home care referral agency, serving Northern California from 6 Bay Area offices. They specialize in referring professional caregivers who have been thoroughly screened and meet stringent professional liability and bonding requirements.
Although not known to many, From the Heart Home Care puts their “Heart” back into the community in their own quiet way, without the need for public recognition or fanfare. Whether it is providing birthday cake and ice cream to the residents of assisted living or rehabilitation facilities, or gifts during the holidays, From the Heart Home Care is always there. Through their Holiday Gift Program, a confidential outreach to the residential facilities with whom they work helps find seniors and other residents who are without family or friends. Gifts are then donated on an anonymous basis, thus helping to bring a little cheer into people’s lives. Forging on-going community partnerships with those providing services to seniors and adults with disabilities is commonplace, including the Alzheimer’s Association, California Resource Centers and various County Human and Social Service Departments. In partnership with Adult Protective Services (APS), they have provided Caregiver services on a pro-bono basis for short periods until a facility opens up or other assistance services may be provided. Most recently, they helped sponsor the 2009 Retired Seniors Volunteer Program (RSVP) Appreciation Luncheon held in Santa Rosa by the Volunteer Center of Sonoma County, recognizing the community service of over 250 senior volunteers.
