At Comfort Keepers Home Care Santa Clarita, a comprehensive caregiver skills lab used to train professional caregivers is available for community members to learn how to safely care for their loved one.

The lab features a hospital bed with a mannequin, wheelchairs, walking devices, a mechanical lift, stairs and more.

“That caregiver skills lab is not only what we use for our caregivers before they get put in the field, but we also open it up to the community,” said Myles McNamara, president of Comfort Keepers Home Care. “You don’t have to be on service with Comfort Keepers.”

McNamara noted many adult children are suddenly pushed into the role of being a caregiver for their senior parent after a stroke, fall or other injury, and need to learn a lot very quickly.

“Are you properly transferring, are you lifting properly, are you doing all the things to not only protect yourself from injury, but to protect the person you’re caring for?” McNamara said.

For example, the caregiver of a senior who recently had a stroke will need to learn how to properly help them up and down the stairs if needed.

“A lot of our clients have had strokes, and there’s a way to go up and down a set of stairs properly when you’re assisting someone doing that,” McNamara explained. “My nurse care manager can train you on any type of device.”
