Victorian Home Care Celebrates 30 Years of Service in Monterey and Santa Cruz Counties
WALNUT CREEK, CA, June 29, 2009 – Victorian Home Care, a division of Professional HealthCare, and a leading provider of in-home personal caregiver services in Monterey and Santa Cruz Counties, is celebrating 30 years of service to the region’s families. Founded in 1979, the company now has a primary office located in Monterey, California and a second office in Aptos, California.
“We are very pleased to have reached the 30-year mark in our service to elderly and disabled residents of the Monterey central coast region,” says John Griscavage, CEO. “The company’s recognizable name within the local communities, our established relationships with local healthcare professionals, and our steady growth are testaments to the high quality of home care services that we provide, as well as the skill, compassion and professional integrity of our employees.”
In the past 30 years, the demographic trends within Monterey and Santa Cruz Counties reflect similar trends throughout the nation, with an aging population and growth in the percentage of older adults requiring in-home assistance with the activities of daily living. “Family members often live far from their aging elders,” continues Griscavage. “A reliable and professional home care agency can bring great comfort and assurance that loved ones are receiving the best possible care, and allows seniors to remain in their own homes for as long as possible.”
