Welcome to American Swiss

Home Care For Your Loved One

We provide compassionate and professional non-medical home care for seniors, persons recuperating from illness, surgery, hospital stays, expectant or new moms, respite for family caregivers and hospice care through in-home caregivers. We offer our elder care services at personal residences, hospitals, nursing homes, assisted living facilities or wherever our clients reside. Our caregivers are available from a few hours a day/week to 24 hour live-in care.

 

We are dedicated to maintaining the dignity, independence, safety and well being of our clients. We achieve this through a detailed assessment of the senior's personal needs that involves the patient, their family and the physician/hospital if necessary. The personal assessment is the first step to a customized elder care plan. We then propose several caregivers by bringing them to your home for an interview and asking you to participate in the selection process. A convenient way to get started is to complete our online in-home care assessment form.

 

We thoroughly screen our caregivers to ensure that they have the necessary experience and knowledge and that they love to provide care for others. Every caregiver undergoes a criminal background and references check, is bonded/insured, and is trained in first aid/CPR and emergency response.

 

We serve Los Angeles, Orange, Ventura, Riverside and San Bernardino counties. Please call (310) 598-6366 or (818) 235-4342.

 

Residential Care Facility for the Elderly

Our residential care facility for the elderly (RCFE) is a State of California licensed (License No. 197605877) five bedroom private home located on a quiet cul de sac in Winnetka, in the Western San Fernando Valley very close to Woodland Hills, Chatsworth, Northridge, Granada Hills and West Hills.

 

We offer superior quality home-like living to adults over the age of 60 who have physical limitations, need care and help with the activities of the daily living, and are at risk living alone. Our board and care home features large nicely furnished rooms, all with central air conditioning/heating, smoke detectors, cable TV, private telephone (if desired), door alarms and enough space to accommodate personal belongs. Our large, covered patio is ideal for outdoor luncheons/dinners and get-togethers.

 

Our very low patient/caregiver ratio of 2 to 1 ensures very personal service and close supervision of our residents. We have an open-door policy for families and friends of our residents, welcome them to visit their loved-ones at any time and to participate in ongoing activities and birthday/holiday celebrations. Please call (818) 235-4342.

About us

American Swiss is owned and managed by a wife/husband team dedicated to offering professional and compassionate care for elderly in the greater Los Angeles area. It is our objective to help you, your parents, spouse, relative or friends who have come to a time in life where they need help. Vicky and Bruno have extensive experience in elder care and are both State of California licensed administrators for residential care facilities for the elderly. We provide a warm, safe and caring environment where all of our patients needs are met, whether in their own home or at our residential care facility. Exceptional elder care requires a very special group of people. Many think they can take care of an elderly person, but it takes a very special person to do it well and professionally, so our first consideration in selection caregivers is professionalism and a love for caring for others. Because we have loving people in our employment, and we treat them well in return and our employees stay for many years, providing continuity of quality care.
