A good friend of mine was looking for homecare assistance for her father.  I was confident to recommend ela Home Care, Inc., because I’ve known the founder very well for more than 10 years.  She is one of the kindest, generous, and caring people I know.  Her 40+ years’ experience in the homecare industry showcases her strong moral compass and passion for caring for elders--she is the epitome of being an organically kind person.  My friend and father have expressed their appreciation of the exceptional care they have received.
