Both families began searching for in-home-care to meet their mounting needs. It was a frustrating process for all involved. It was difficult to find a care team who would see their loved one as more than their diagnosis while at the same time, view their family as an integral part of the patients overall health and well-being. Having worked in the medical field for 25+ years, my wife Theresa and I searched for a way we could provide home-care for families in need with the standard of excellence they deserve. Qualicare San Diego was founded in 2015 and since then the word has spread that <em>this is a company you can count on<\/em> to not only keep your loved one safe, but take the time to get to know them and the unique needs of your family as you care for them.
