Hillendale Walnut Creek In Home Senior Care

Senior Home Care in Walnut Creek, CA

Walnut Creek is where Hillendale Home Care's flagship office calls home — though our team's reach extends throughout Contra Costa County, this is where it all starts, and that matters when you're trying to find the right senior care or home care for someone you love. Rather than sending help "into" the community from somewhere else, our team works out of an office right here — close to Broadway Plaza, John Muir Medical Center's Walnut Creek campus, and the neighborhoods where our clients have lived for years. We provide non-medical home care and senior care services designed to help older adults remain safely and comfortably in the homes they know, with support that adjusts as needs change.

Home Care with Humanity

From the moment you meet the Walnut Creek Hillendale team, you'll feel the difference: personalized caregiver matching, hands-on training, seamless coordination, and clear, ongoing communication.

In-Home Support for Walnut Creek Families

Whether you need hourly assistance or around-the-clock care, the Hillendale team is here to help. Together, Hillendale's highly trained caregivers and comprehensive care management team build individualized in-home care plans to provide ongoing support that meets your family's unique needs throughout Contra Costa County.

Our Walnut Creek caregivers assist with:

  • Personal care such as bathing, dressing, and grooming
  • Meal planning and cooking according to specific dietary needs
  • Medication reminders and wellness check-ins
  • Laundry and light housekeeping
  • Friendly conversation and emotional companionship
  • Transportation to appointments and errands

Care Rooted in Connection

Good home care is built on relationships, not just a checklist of tasks. Our caregivers take time to learn each client's routines, preferences, and personality before ever picking up a broom or preparing a meal. Whether someone needs a few hours of senior care support each week or a steadier daily presence, our approach stays personal, because the people we serve deserve to be known, not simply managed.

Why Walnut Creek Families Trust Hillendale

  • Our leadership and care team are based right here in Walnut Creek, not run out of a distant call center, so you're always working with people who know this community firsthand
  • Caregivers are matched thoughtfully, with attention to personality and care needs, not simply availability
  • Care plans are shaped around each client's home, routines, and preferences rather than a standard template
  • We stay closely connected with families throughout the course of care, adjusting support as needs evolve
  • Being minutes from John Muir Medical Center's Walnut Creek campus helps make post-hospital transitions home smoother and better coordinated

The Value of Home Care and Senior Care

For many families, the hardest part of aging isn't needing help, it's figuring out how to accept that help without giving up independence. Home care offers a way to bridge that gap, providing enough support to stay safe while preserving the freedom of living at home, surrounded by familiar rooms, routines, and neighbors.
Senior care of this kind also lightens the load carried by family caregivers, who are often stretched between their own households, jobs, and the desire to do right by a parent or spouse. Bringing in professional home care doesn't replace a family's involvement; it gives that involvement room to be about connection again, instead of exhaustion.

Woven Into the Walnut Creek Community

Our clients' lives extend well beyond the walls of their homes, and we try to support that. That might mean helping someone get to a favorite bench at Heather Farm Park, timing a visit around a show at the Lesher Center for the Arts, or simply making sure someone can still enjoy an afternoon near Broadway Plaza. Being headquartered in Walnut Creek isn't just a business detail; it means our team understands the rhythms of this community because we're part of it too.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes. Our Alzheimer's & Dementia Care service is provided by caregivers trained to offer patient, consistent support for memory-related conditions, including help with daily routines, safety, and companionship, whether a client lives near Heather Farm Park, downtown Walnut Creek, or elsewhere in the surrounding area.

Yes. Our Post-Hospital Home Care is designed for exactly that kind of transition. Because our team is based right here in Walnut Creek, close to John Muir Medical Center's Walnut Creek campus, we can help clients settle back home with support for medication reminders, mobility, meals, and daily routines while they recover.
 

Yes. Home care is one of the most effective ways to help a senior age in place safely — it brings personalized, non-medical support directly into the client's own home in Walnut Creek, rather than requiring a move to a facility. "Senior care" is often used as the broader umbrella term, but in practice it describes the same in-home, one-on-one support families are searching for when they look for "home care."

Yes. Hillendale Home Care is headquartered at 2950 Buskirk Ave, Suite 200, in Walnut Creek, CA, near Broadway Plaza. Families are welcome to visit our office in person to talk through senior care options rather than only communicating by phone.
 

It depends on the level of supervision and support your parent needs day to day. Hourly Home Care works well for families who mainly need help with specific tasks or a few visits a week, while 24-Hour Care is a better fit when safety, confusion, or physical limitations call for someone present around the clock. We're happy to talk through your situation and recommend a starting point.
 

What Families Are Saying

I recently had total hip replacement surgery and needed someone to take me to and from the hospital and be with me for the following 48 hours or more if needed. The caregivers from Hillendale were exceptional. Violetta picked me up promptly very early on the day of my surgery, stayed with me through admittance, picked up my post-operative medications, joined me in recovery to go over my post-operative care instructions, drove me home and helped me until Hakuna relieved her for the overnight shift. Hakuna was just as attentive and professional during the overnight hours. She would hear me get out of bed and was immediately there to help. Violetta and Hakuna were with me for 48 hours and were both exceptionally professional and helpful. Jean relieved Hakuna after that, but by now I was getting around quite well and no longer needed much help. However, Jean was eager to help in any way and was a great companion. All three ladies were extraordinary companions and caregivers. I would highly recommend Hillendale Home Care to anyone needing their specialized services.

Truly Exceptional Care and Compassion. Every single person we interacted with at Hillendale—starting from our very first call—has been compassionate, communicative, organized, honest, and deeply supportive. If you find yourself in the incredibly difficult position of needing in-home care for a loved one, we can say without hesitation: Hillendale is the best in the East Bay. Their team and caregivers showed our grandmother, and our entire family, an extraordinary level of empathy and kindness during one of the darkest and most emotional times in our lives. Their caregivers bonded with our grandmother immediately—offering not just support, but true companionship: encouragement, warm conversations over coffee, shared stories, and even soothing hand and foot massages. They've been flexible and responsive with schedules, staffing, and changing needs. Their professionalism is matched only by the genuine heart they bring to this work. Hillendale has been worth every single penny, and we are so grateful for the peace of mind and comfort they brought to our family.

Francesca, Gabriella, and the team of caregivers at Hillendale are wonderful. They all showed such compassion to my parents and to me when organizing care and caring for my dad when he started hospice at home. Each caregiver was respectful, helpful, and friendly. Gabriella went above and beyond her duties to make sure my parents and I felt supported and she made herself available to us 24/7 for questions and concerns. I believe that the Hillendale team helped my dad get strong enough to where he has now regained some independence in terms of personal care and getting around the house. My family and I are very grateful to this amazing team of caregivers.

Hillendale Home Care provided outstanding care to my 95-year-old mother in the last stages of cancer. They responded quickly, deployed excellent people who were always on time, always considerate, and always confident and skillful. They also worked really well with our hospice providers, making the whole difficult experience gentle and effective.

I can't say enough about the amazing Hillendale staff! My brother Brian Cooley had a major stroke back in 2017… he was only 52 at the time. His whole life changed dramatically that day. It takes a very special kind of person to come out mobily every day and offer a smile and a shower, a fresh set of clothes. My brother is a very social, kind person and the stroke has limited his ability to get out. He so enjoys and appreciates all that Hillendale does for him, we all do. The staff are kind, patient, thorough, safering, professional, trustworthy, consistent, always on time, full-of-heart kind of people and we are forever grateful for their service to those in need. Thank you! Sincerely, Cristin Schump.

Hillendale is an amazing company. They helped my family and I so much when we needed to get a caregiver for my grandmother. We first spoke with Laura and she was so understanding and helped explain the whole process to us. Our caregiver has been nothing but great and so helpful. I would recommend Hillendale, Laura and their caregivers to anyone who is looking for help with a loved one.
