We offer just enough help to keep independence alive—whether it's cutting up food, providing adaptive utensils, or lending a steady hand. Seniors in Alameda deserve to eat comfortably and confidently, and we make sure they do.

Navigating Cognitive Decline at the Table

Alzheimer’s. Dementia. These are heavy words, but they're realities many families face. And when memory fades, even recognizing food can become a challenge. But we’re here for that too.

We help seniors in Alameda stay engaged during mealtimes, creating calm, stress-free environments that make eating more enjoyable.
