The Problem Your Family Is Facing

The Hospital Did Their Job.

Now It's On You.

The discharge planner sends your parent home with a folder of instructions, a prescription list, and a follow-up appointment three weeks away. Then the hospital doors close. Suddenly you're the coordinator, the medication manager, the safety monitor.

You can't be there 24/7

You have a job, a family, a life that didn't pause because your parent was discharged.

Your parent won't tell you everything

They don't want to be a burden — so the subtle warning signs go unreported.

Nobody's watching the whole picture

No single person coordinates the caregivers, doctors, family, and medications together.

Caregiver burnout is real

Family caregiving affects careers, relationships, and health — it rarely announces itself until it breaks.

"The hardest part wasn't the care itself. It was not knowing if I was doing enough."

— Golden Years Client Family, Sacramento

Our Story

We've Been Exactly Where You Are.

When our founder Ken Ballard watched his own family navigate the care of an aging parent, he couldn't find anyone good enough.

Not because good caregivers didn't exist..

but because there was no system to coordinate them, communicate with the family, and ensure nothing fell through the cracks.

"Most seniors don't want to leave their homes.

They want to remain where life has meaning — where memories live."

So in 1996, he and Carrie built one. Thirty years later, Golden Years Home Care has become California's most trusted family-owned senior care agency — not because we're the biggest, but because we never forgot what it feels like to sit where you're sitting right now.

We started with a single licensed care home in Sacramento. But as we listened to families, we recognized that senior care should come to the home — not the other way around. That shift sparked everything that followed: Co‑Active Care™, Care365™, and a coordinated system that protects recovery long after discharge day.

INTRODUCING CARE365™

Not Just Caregivers. A Coordinated Care Ecosystem.

Care365™ is a structured, milestone-driven care management program that coordinates your parent's entire care circle — caregivers, doctors, family, and specialists — through one accountable team.

It's built on three integrated layers that work together:

Care365™

The Roadmap

30-60-90 day milestone structure. Year-round coordination.

Co-Active Care™

The Intelligence

Early change detection. Proactive adjustments before crisis hits.

Care Continuum Circle™

The Integration

One team. One plan. Every provider connected and accountable.

"No silos. No gaps. No guessing."

How The Care Assessment Works

Step 1 — Book Your $97 Assessment Visit

A licensed Care Coordinator visits your parent at home. We assess care needs, safety, daily routines, and family dynamics — in person, not over the phone.

Step 2 — Receive Your Personalized Care Plan

Within 24–48 hours, you'll receive a written care plan tailored specifically to your parent's needs. No generic checklists. No one-size-fits-all packages

Step 3 — Choose Your Level of Support

We'll walk you through the right Care365™ plan for your situation — from Safe & Well ($297/month) to our full Harmony program. 

Step 4 — We Activate the Care Circle

Your care team is assigned, your family is connected, and your 30-day stability phase begins. You get one point of contact for everything.

THE COST OF WAITING

We understand. This is a big decision.

But here's what we've seen in 30 years of serving families:

  • Families who wait for a crisis to act spend an average of 10x more in emergency care than those with a proactive plan.

  • A single preventable fall or medication error can lead to a $20,000+ ER visit and 3–6 weeks of setback.

  • Caregiver burnout rarely announces itself — it arrives as a breaking point.

The $97 assessment is not a sales call. It's a professional evaluation that gives you a clear picture of what your parent needs — before something goes wrong.

The hardest call I make is the one to a family who waited too long. The second hardest is the one I wish I had made sooner.Golden Years Care Coordinator

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the $97 assessment a commitment to ongoing care?

No. The assessment stands completely on its own. After our Care Coordinator visits, you'll receive a written plan and have zero obligation to move forward. Many families book the assessment simply to have a professional opinion. Whatever you decide, the plan is yours to ke

What if my parent isn't sure they need care?

That's exactly why the assessment exists. Our Care Coordinator is trained to work with seniors who are hesitant — we evaluate needs without judgment and present options, never push. Many of our longest-term clients told us at assessment they "probably didn't need much."

What areas do you serve?

Golden Years Home Care serves families across Sacramento, Roseville, Elk Grove, Lincoln, Mission Valley, and San Diego. Same-week visits are typically available in most areas.

What is Care365™ and do I have to sign up?

Care365™ is our structured care management program — not required, but recommended for families who want ongoing coordination rather than just hourly coverage. Plans start at $297/month. Your Care Advisor will walk you through options after the assessment.

Can I use long-term care insurance to pay?

Yes. Our Client Success Managers are experienced in navigating LTC insurance policies and will help coordinate benefits as part of our Care Continuum Circle™ service.

What if my parent is coming home from the hospital soon?

Book immediately. We prioritize post-discharge assessments and can often have a coordinator visit within 24–72 hours. Hospital discharge is the highest-risk period — early intervention makes the biggest difference.
