Trying to find any type of senior care these days seems to be almost impossible. To find somebody that actually cares and that you can trust with your loved ones is so difficult.

×

I cannot say enough good things about Amada Senior Care. They have served both myself and my husband when he was alive. Every caregiver that came to our home was courteous and kind. We particularly loved Addie. She was amazing and we became very attached to her and have remained friends even since care was discontinued. The office staff was very professional and courteous as well.

×

Amada has been providing caregiver assistance for my elderly mother for approximately four years. My experience with Amada in the following areas has been outstanding: assistance in helping with issues related to billing, care, staffing, and problem solving. The scheduling team is flexible and fantastic to work with, offering text messaging, email, and prompt phone response and a true pleasure to work with. The caregivers have been caring and friendly, they have provided transportation, meal assistance, bathing assistance, minor housekeeping, and have been successful in insuring the safety of my mother. What a fantastic team Amada has created to help people maintain their independence within their own home. Challenging times in life require a knowledgeable positive team to assist you in insuring your loved one is safe and enjoying life.

We hired Amada Senior Care to take care of my mother for 20 hours following surgery. The care involved 2 caregivers. After having 2 previous very bad experiences with a different Home Care company, I was very concerned about how responsible and attentive the caregivers would be. However, both Amada caregivers were excellent and my mother said she really liked them both. They were friendly, helpful, responsible, attentive and timely. We will be using their services in the future.

×

Jonathan and Cherie are amazing owners. Down to earth and very easy to work with. My clients have been pleased with the caliber of caregivers they have sent!

Our family’s relationship with Amada began in 2016 when my son and I broke bread over iced tea, at a Starbucks, in a shopping center, that I no longer remember. What I do remember is meeting Jonathan Burrough for the first time, a most remarkable man. We discussed a plethora of subjects surrounding the care and wellbeing of perhaps the most important person in my life, my aging mother. Amada was recommended to us by a Registered Nurse from mom’s long term care insurance company. Surprisingly Amada was also recommended to us by mom’s Trust attorney after her husband died. We were very lucky to have gotten this invaluable counsel from sources that we trusted, somewhat, because at the time we felt that senior care companies were only a step-up from rest homes and were just pricy institutional organizations staffed with apathetic and mildly concerned care givers. Jonathan Burrough (The man from Amada) changed those feelings. It is difficult for me to explain how that was possible in just a few words, you would need to meet Jonathan in person and see for yourself to realize how my conversion was even possible. It would be well worth your time in my opinion. After going on eight years of working with Amada, here is my takeaway. First, people buy from people. Trusting a company is mostly just trusting brand recognition and printed words. When it comes to trusting an organization with the care of a dear loved one, you need to meet their CEO in person to judge their worth, and then, get a signed contract. I feel we have perhaps a rare situation when it comes to judging the quality of caregivers. Our family lives with our caregivers for 8 to 12 hours daily. To be honest not all care givers are equivalent. Some are much better suited with the skills we require for the care of our elderly matriarch. Their attention to detail, watchfulness, and dedication to the job differ greatly. I recommend getting to know your caregiver well. Amada will help greatly if you cannot oversee your caregivers personally. We have had many caregivers over the years, and we are appreciative of the selectiveness by which Amada achieves compatibility with our sometimes-overbearing family situation and needs. Most of our caregivers become more than just employees, and our lives become much entwined, even long after they have moved on with their careers. Most have had the fortune and sometimes misfortune of working for other caregiver groups, but they do all agree that Amada is by far the best organization they have worked for. And that is a very important difference.

×

Jonathan and his team at Amada Senior Care are a 5 star group. They are trustworthy, experienced, and caring professionals. I highly recommend Amada Senior Care for your home care needs.

×

Before calling Amada I must have called at least a dozen other senior care companies. After speaking with each one I did not feel that they would provide care that was actually caring. When I spoke with Jonathan at Amada I immediately sensed that he genuinely cared and was very kind on the phone. He later visited my mom in the skilled nursing facility before she was released back home, so he could get to know her and what the caregivers would need to to for her. I was very pleased with the caregivers. They were kind, personable and helped my mom out when I could not be there with her. Highly recommend Amada for anyone that needs assistance at home or if someone needs assistance after returning home from a nursing care facility after being ill. I also would like to mention his professionalism and how well he manages his business and the people that work for him. They all seem to be very dedicated to helping their clients.

×

Jonathan at Amada was so helpful, and went beyond to help our firm find care for a client that had back surgery. Everything went smoothly, and our client was well taken care of. Thank you to Amada Senior Care for caring about the wellbeing of others! We will definitely us them in the future.

×

The staff is great and super attentive to the clients! All of my questions were answered and it’s easy to get in contact with them. would definitely recommend!

×

I highly recommend Amada Senior Care as a top care provider in San Diego. Their staff offers a quick response and the utmost professionalism in helping families coordinate the care needs for their loved ones. This can be a worrisome time when a family member needs extra care but Amada eases the worry by providing compassionate and skilled in home assistance. Family members can rest easy knowing their loved one is receiving the best care with Amada Senior Care.

When I was diagnosed with MCI, I was scared. My sister was scared for me, even though she was with me most of the time. She referred me to Amada Senior Care and told me how happy I could be with their help. After meeting Jonathan, I knew I’d be in good hands. I adore him and his kind way of leaving me with dignity.

×

When a loved one needs long-term care and you’re not sure who to turn to, give Amada Senior Care a call. Jonathan Burrough and his team of professionals provide such compassion matched with dignity reaching to the very “soul” of your loved ones. I Know firsthand – that is why my sister felt so “loved” under their care. Their quality professional level of care is the heart & soul of what makes them the very best in San Diego County. As I always say when I encounter someone needing Home Health Care, “You need look no further than Amada”. Thank you! I am so grateful Jonathan, for all you and your team provide.

×

Jonathan and his team at Amada Senior Care are the absolute best. They’re a mainstay in San Diego County, known for providing great quality and compassionate care. Jonathan is a very hands on owner and ensures his patients are well taken care of. Being a former NFL athlete himself it shows in his drive, passion and having a team effort attitude at all times. I highly recommend Amada Home Care for all of your home care needs.

×

I’m absolutely thrilled with the quality of service, care and teamwork shown by this company! They twice helped me out during unforeseen crises and the entire staff, including the owner, were considerate, efficient and professional. 10/10 would recommend!

×

Amada hands down is one of the best care giving companies in the San Diego area! I worked with Amada on a professional level for many years (10+) and would often refer them to families in need of in-home care giver support. Fast forward to present day, Amada was the first and only care giving company I reached out to when it came time to looking for in-home care giving support for my father-in-law who has Lewy Body Dementia. One of the owners Jonathan, went out of his way to come meet with my family and make sure he fully understood our needs. While meeting with us, Jonathan took great care to preserve my father-in-law’s dignity by including him in the conversation and developing an understanding of what was also important to my father-in-law. Jonathan put my mother-in-law at ease throughout the difficult process. Amada’s care givers were top-notch and it was clear they had a strong understanding of how to successfully work with individuals living with dementia. Most important, it was clear that all of the care givers loved the work they were doing and where doing it out of their genuine desire to help others. My mother-in-law could not praise Amada’s scheduler enough. Amada’s scheduler made it her priority to make sure my mother-in-law had all of the requested shifts covered and was always available to provide whatever support was needed. Amada made a very difficult situation less difficult and also provided our family with the opportunity to make lasting memories of taking my father-in-law fishing and out for walks on the pier prior to us having to place him in a Memory Care facility. If you are looking for a care giving company that will take care of you from start to finish and make you feel like family, look no further. Thank you will never be enough to express how grateful our family is for the care and service Amada provided.

I recently had to move my Aunt into the Meridian at Lake San Marcos. It was recommended to help ease the transition, that I should hire a caregiver for my Aunt’s first week. Amanda and Jonathan were recommended and they are both beyond fantastic. It was the weekend before the move and a last minute call and Jonathan was able to get me a caregiver and set up the schedule for the week with very short notice. All of the care givers were just fantastic and my Aunt really enjoyed them. Pearl from Amanda was fantastic as well and contacted me to let me know how my Aunt was doing. This level of service really helped ease my mind. I would with out any hesitation recommend Amanda for anyone in need of senior caregivers.

×

Due to a last minute change I have not yet used Amada but absolutely will in the future. Jonathan is so incredibly helpful and caring and went above and beyond in his efforts to help me find care for my elderly father. He was so understanding about the late notice of a change.

×

Amada Senior Care recently took care of my clients mom. One of the owners, Jonathan Burrough was quick to get into action to get their needs met with compassion, professionalism and empathy. Jonathan and his staff were extremely knowledgeable in what needed to be done and acted accordingly. I appreciate Amada Senior Care so much and will continue to refer my clients to them indefinitely! Thank you Jonathan Burrough!

×

We had an amazing experience with Amada. Jonathan and his team were wonderful. Their attention to detail, compassion, and professionalism is stellar. Being in the healthcare industry myself, I could really appreciate how the Jonathan and all the aids looked at my father (who needed care) as family. He developed a great relationship with his aids as he was recovering! I am happy we found Amada!

×

As part of the Pacifica Senior Living Oceanside team, I see firsthand the quality of care Amada caregivers provide. They are attentive, professional, and most importantly, our residents are very pleased with their services. I would most definitely recommend this agency if you or a loved one needs in-home senior care.

×

As the nurse at Pacifica Senior Living Oceanside My first choice in home care is always Amada Senior Care. Jonathan, owner, always sits down with his clients to make sure all their needs are met. He is genuine and doesn’t try to sell you more than you need. As a nurse in Assisted Living I know I can trust his staff that he sends over to care for my residents. All of his staff are polite, knowledgeable and aren’t afraid to work. I can depend on Amada Senior Care.

×

Amada helped my mom in our hour of need. They were top-notch professionals. All of the caregivers were phenomenal–so kind and caring. They really helped my mom get back on her feet! Thank you, Amada Senior Care–I certainly know where to go if I need private caregivers again!

×

My Mom was recovering from a back injury and required 24 hour care for a few weeks and then part time assistance as she improved. Fred and his staff at Amada were professional, trustworthy, flexible and a pleasure to work with. With their help my Mom had a full recovery and a fantastic experience.

×

Without doubt, the Amada team is made up of caring, compassionate, and loving people. Both the staff and owners show their dedication to clients and caregivers. Truly, they go to great lengths to work with your situation and strive to brighten your day. I would highly recommend this fantastic team to any of my personal loved ones because they effectively communicate care and trust. Even under the most difficult circumstances during this COVID-19 pandemic, they adapt to the circumstances, remain organized and responsible for their work, and stay focused on the care and safety of their clients and caregivers.

×

Amada is absolutely wonderful! They have provided help for our family for over 5 years – for both my Dad and my Mom. Owner/Managers, Fred and Janice Ehlers, and Jonathan Burroughs are wonderful to work with, and their caregivers are well-trained, nurturing and compassionate. Management is proactive in seeking feedback about their performance – calling to check how things are going and rapidly addressing any issues that might arise. When my father came home from a skilled nursing facility, he needed home care and had a long-term care insurance policy. Fred helped us understand and navigate the complicated insurance process. This was a Godsend. (This contrasted greatly with another senior care company that told us we were on our own wrt insurance filing– and couldn’t even tell us if my Dad’s required care would qualify. We’d see after filing a claim…). Fred and Jonathan visited my parents many times and brought flowers to my Dad when he was in the hospital. We think of them, and many of their caretakers as family. When my Dad passed, Fred attended the funeral – which touched us deeply. We highly recommend Amada.

×

John Burrough was great! He flexed his schedule to accommodate my father’s immediate needs. He personally introduced himself and took the time to ensure he exactly understood the customer needs so to match his staff accordingly. Amada reps stepped up at the residence to make it safer. I would recommend anyone looking for senior care to take 5 minutes to talk to John and see if they are a good fit. My personal experience when calling around was that other providers were either not as responsive or did not even return a message.
