Amada Senior Care Ventura County
Craig and Joy Michayluk are the owners of Amada Senior Care Ventura County, a business based on their long-held belief that serving seniors and veterans is a
great privilege and a lifelong passion.
Says Craig, “After being married, my wife Joy and I searched for a way to express our deep compassion for seniors by helping them improve their lives. We found our calling in 2007 when we purchased a 46-bed assisted living facility.”
Soon after, Craig and Joy started a home health agency with hospice care and a pharmacy. Their goal then and now is to “improve seniors’ lives one senior at a time.”

My mom is 95 year young and we have around the care from Amanda and we love all 3 ladies that work for my mom. They’re wonderful ladies and my mom loves all 3 of them.
Amanda Senior Care is a great company. There caregivers are so caring & they do a great job helping my 91 year old mom.
Amada has done such a great job with my Dad. I couldn't have been happier. Their caregivers are so kind and attentive, they must be angels!
I have been working with Amada now for about 3 months, they provide healthcare to my Mom. They are amazing! Everyone there is extremely friendly and helpful. I am notified in advance when the caregiver is unable to show up and in most cases they have been able to provide an alternative so that my Mom is always looked after.
I definitely recommend Amada if you are looking for help with aging or health challenged family members. Glenn is "great"!
We’ve been very happy with the caregivers from Amada. They’ve been n very sweet to my elderly mom. We also appreciate all the help filling out medical forms. I highly
recommend them!!
Amada sent a great health care lady to help my elderly mom. We are very happy with her. It was a pleasure working with Amada and I recommend them to anyone who needs assistance.
We have been very happy with everything Amada has been able to help with. From LTC claims to providing friendly caregivers, we can highly recommend them.
Senior Housing Advising
When seniors or their loved ones begin to feel that they require more support than in-home care and assistance with basic ADLs, it may be time to consider transitioning to an assisted living community.
This is an emotional decision for everyone involved, and our goal at Amada Senior Care in Ventura County is to guide families through the placement process with wisdom, empathy, and competence.
For some seniors, an assisted living community, typically offering non-complex medical services, may be a good fit. Others may require a bit more support and may be better served in a nursing home or different type of care community.
The team at Amada Senior Care Ventura County has years of experience with senior care in Agoura Hills, Agoura, Calabasas, Calabasas Hills, Cornell, Oak Park, Saratoga Hills, Newberry Park, Thousand Oaks, Santa Clarita, Newhall, Agua Dulce, Saugus, Valencia, Westlake Village, Lake Sherwood, Hidden Valley, Stevenson Ranch, Camarillo, Oxnard, Ventura, Santa Rosa Valley, Simi Valley, Santa Susana and nearby communities. As a result, we have deep knowledge of all local care communities and can make sure our clients find the ideal placement to suit their care needs, locations, lifestyles, and budgets.
We also rely on our extensive experience to help our clients make full use of all benefits available to them, including veterans’ benefits and Long-Term Care Insurance benefits. The costs of assisted living may intimidate many families, but we can help them make financial decisions with confidence. To further ease cost concerns, the Amada Ventura County team is pleased to offer its placement services free of charge.
When in-home care is no longer ideal for our clients, we are honored to guide them through this next phase. Our specialty is referring seniors to the right community or placement for them, which may include:
- Assisted living communities
- Large and small communities
- Independent living communities
- Board and care homes
- Adult family homes
- Senior care homes
- Skilled nursing facilities
- Alzheimer/dementia communities
