Excellent In-Home Care in Torrance and Long Beach, California with Amada Senior Care
Proudly Caring for Senior Veterans as an Accredited VA Provider (NPI# 1649697699)
Andre and Cyndi Pegus are the owners of Amada Senior Care of Long Beach, California. Their team offers loving senior care to those seniors who need some assistance with activities of daily living as they live independently. With an office in Torrance, this team is proud to serve clients from throughout the South Bay Los Angeles area, including Carson, El Segundo, Hermosa Beach, Lomita, Long Beach, Los Alamitos, Manhattan Beach, Rancho Palos Verdes, Redondo Beach, Seal Beach, and other nearby communities.
For Andre and Cyndi, working with Amada is about much more than caring for seniors in the Long Beach area — it’s a way to make a positive contribution to the community as a whole. Andre says, “I wanted to open a home care business because I wanted to be able to give back to people and taking care of people is a great way to give back.”
Because Andre, Cyndi, and their team at Amada Long Beach are committed to creating positive impacts wherever they are most needed, they find working with clients other caregivers may look at as especially difficult to be the most rewarding. According to Andre, “I’ve found since opening this business that I really like working with hospice and respite care clients. These families couldn’t be more appreciative of the love, care, and concern we show and the ways we help their loved ones during their final days. This is something that makes us feel really, really good.”

Amada Long Beach Home Care Services Offer More
At Amada Long Beach, we approach senior care with a focus on what seniors need, as opposed to what home care services we typically offer. We realize that every senior has unique needs, preferences, and desires, and it is the goal of each one of our care providers to offer the most comprehensive and personalized senior care possible.
When we are brought into a senior’s home to provide in-home care, we seek to go beyond normal caregiver duties like assisting with activities of daily living (ADLs). We offer those services, but we go further by aiming to truly enrich our senior clients’ lives.
Should one of our clients no longer thrive or feel safe in a home care environment, we also work with that senior and their family members or loved ones to find the best assisted living community for them to move to. We also offer support and guidance throughout the transition process. Our expertise in helping clients find the best way to pay for senior care is also always available to our clients. We can help seniors take advantage of Long-Term Care insurance (LTCi) benefits, veterans’ benefits through the VA, and even life insurance policies.
To us, caregiving goes beyond keeping clients safe and comfortable; we want to help seniors thrive and enjoy each day to its fullest.

We help make sure our clients are using LTCi benefits as effectively as possible by assigning them to a care plan specific to each senior client’s unique needs.

I recently engaged Amada for short-term assistance for two weeks following a full knee replacement. I was unsure about my abilities to navigate the routines of life for the first two weeks post-surgery, and my wife's ability to assist me during that period.
Amada provided competent, attentive, and helpful people. They provide assistance in personal tasks and movement, meal preparation, and some lite housework, assisting me when my surgery reduced my capabilities and assisting my wife by helping to reduce the workload of running a home. The staff they provide were also very nice people, pleasant to be around. Hiring Amada for short-term care was a great decision and significantly reduced my post-surgery stress.
It is a very big step to begin looking for outside help when caring for a loved with Alzheimer’s. We had a family member that had used Amada in San Diego and when I had a need for caregivers as my back up for my husband , it was suggest we contact Amada in Torrance.
Cyndi Pegus, when contacted, spent an hour on the phone with me getting to know our situation and how they might help. Sandi came out in person to our home and spent another hour meeting us and going over how the process would go.
We have been with Amada since early June and have been so please with our caregiver and how responsive the whole team has been. So grateful that we have found Amada.

Amada really stepped up and met our last minute request for
24/7 caregiving to accommodate elderly parent coming home
from hospital who was injured from a fall. They had great
suggestions for what equipment and supplies would be
needed and understood the complexity of the care required.
I highly recommend them to anyone looking for compassionate
caregivers.
Amada could not have been better. Cyndi and Sandi thoughtfully listened to our situation and created a post-rehab care plan for my mother in law, which was seamlessly executed upon her release. The care she received from the Amada caregivers was A+. They were professional and thoughtful and made a difficult situation much easier. In an industry full of sub-par providers, Amada is a true gem. They will be our first call should the need arise again.
Amada Care team & staff is super amazing & helpful from the first day I started.
They are super supportive & take care of there caregivers 100% loved
working for them I totally recommend them.
Cindy & Sandy and the rest of the team are super helpful.
Thank you guys♥️
The service provided has been nothing but a blessing for my family, Yolanda is a wonderful caregiver for my mother, thank goodness for her.
Senior care is not a one-size-fits-all proposition. Just because needs change as we age doesn’t mean there is a single formula all must follow to obtain the best results. As experts, we work with the individual senior and his/her family to come up with a unique care plan, assigning a caregiver whose skills and personality best complement the client.
Senior Housing Advising for Long Beach Seniors
Sometimes Amada seniors come to require more support than in-home care and assistance with basic ADLs. When this occurs, it might be time to consider transitioning to an assisted living community. We can help guide families and seniors through the placement process with wisdom, empathy, and a deep knowledge of area senior care centers.
For some seniors, an assisted living community, typically offering non-complex medical services, can be a good fit. Others may require a bit more support and may be better served in a nursing home near a medical center or in a memory care community.
The team at Amada Senior Care Long Beach has years of experience with senior care in Carson, El Segundo, Hermosa Beach, Lomita, Long Beach, Los Alamitos, Manhattan Beach, Rancho Palos Verdes, Redondo Beach, Seal Beach, Torrance, and other nearby communities. As a result, we have deep knowledge of all South Bay senior living communities like Seasons Memory Care, Silverado Beach Cities Memory Care, Sunrise Senior Living, and many more coastal Long Beach care communities. The Amada Senior Care Long Beach team is committed to making sure our clients find the ideal placement to suit their care needs, locations, lifestyles, and budgets.
We have extensive experience with this process and it is our pleasure to help our clients make full use of all benefits available to them, including veterans’ benefits and Long-Term Care Insurance benefits. The costs of assisted living facilities may intimidate many families, but we can help them make financial decisions with confidence. To further ease cost concerns, the Amada Long Beach team is pleased to offer its placement services free of charge.
Our specialty is referring seniors to the right senior living community or placement for them, which may include:
- Assisted living communities
- Skilled nursing and care facilities
- Board and care homes
- Large and small communities
- Independent living communities
- Adult family homes with medical care services
- Senior care homes
- Memory care, Alzheimer and dementia communities
Too often our veterans, their spouses, and/or families are unaware of their eligibility for financial assistance through the VA. At Amada Senior Care Long Beach, we are dedicated to our veterans’ well-being. We help individuals eligible for VA Aid and Attendance benefits take full advantage of these resources.
