Overview

Preferred Care at Home of Central Coastal San Diego, located in LaMesa, CA offers home care (non-medical).

Preferred Care at Home Central Coastal San Diego offers a variety of senior care services to the senior population and their loved ones in San Diego. Toni Yuskis Petruzzo, the owner and administrator, has an intimate history with home care, as she was a family caregiver for her mother who had Alzheimer’s. She was also a caregiver and conservator to her aunt who suffered from Parkinsonism, dementia and schizophrenia.

It is because of this history that she understands how difficult it is at times to stop the stress, frustration, anger, guilt, and fatigue from bleeding into the other important roles and personal relationships like wife and mother. She also understands that shouldering all the senior care responsibilities without any help may not be feasible or healthy in the long run.

Moreover, she knows what skills and training her caregivers should have in order to provide the most compassionate and competent senior home care. Every one of the caregivers is properly qualified and experienced, be they CNA’s, HHA’s, or LVN’s, many being student nurses from the local colleges in San Diego. Every caregiver that is placed in a senior’s home is certified in CPR and First Aid. The...
