    Sadly, my Mom was diagnosed with Alzheimer's in 2021 and it became overwhelming to juggle her care and my job. A social worker recommended hiring a caregiver for seniors and gave me a brochure for Brenda and Doha at Justin Villa Care … More in Torrance. I am so thankful I called because their staff has been so professional and attentive to my Mother's care needs. Brenda is a registered nurse and her background uncovered some issues with her medication that she helped resolve with her doctors. I now don't have to worry as much about my Mother being at safe knowing that there are competent and skilled caregivers who treat my Mom so well. I highly recommend anyone to call Justin Villa Care if you are in need of a quality senior home care provider in Torrance.

    I hired 24/7 caregivers from Justin Villa Care two months ago to care for my aging Mother and could not be happier. The time and attention that I have received from Brenda and her team has been a blessing. They've been checking in … More with us consistently to see how things are going and have responded with each of our questions with professionalism and care. So happy to have found them and would recommend them in a heart beat!

    My mom had a stroke that turned her life upside down from an independent woman to needing help with daily tasks. Justin Villa Care was referred to me by the case manager at the hospital and I’m so thankful she did. They met with our family … More promptly
    and brought in a caregiver who has been super helpful. Thank you Brenda and Doha for all your help.
