Member Testimonials

“What a treat, and how comforting, to know that a friendly and familiar face will be on hand to take me to and fetch me from the airport—at any hour of the day, any day of the week. And how nice to know that I don't have to wade through the Yellow Pages ads, wondering who is competent and reliable, among trades people, and who isn't. For those in physical need of assistance, and for those who just need an extra set of arms, legs, and brains to make life a little less stressful, CoralGables@HOME is the answer! Thank you for being there!”

Taffy Gould

“With CoralGables@ HOME, I have an extension of home. Need a handyman, ride to the doctor, something from Publix, a get together with other folks once in a while?—all available with a phone call to CoralGables@HOME. I have a friend, an ally I can count on to be there when needed.”

red arrowWill CoralGables@HOME drive me to my doctor’s office? CoralGables@HOME can provide transportation for up to 12 doctor’s appointments or any other local destination per year at no additional charge. Simply call our office 48-hours in advance to make transportation arrangements.

red arrowIs this program a duplication of services already available in Coral Gables? CoralGables@HOME was designed to complement not duplicate the excellent services already provided by the City's Senior Services (and other agencies). While the City's services are more activities-based (and CoralGables@HOME does offer activities), we are concerned with helping you remain in your own home and offer the means and assistance to do those things you need help to accomplish. According to a January 2009 AARP article, 89% of people over 50 want to stay in their own homes and there is a growing movement to provide services to help them do just that. Recognized as a grass-roots movement by this 2008 Washington Post article, "Villages" began springing up across the country offering Baby Boomers the services they needed to remain at home, and Coral Gables is no exception, where approximately 25% of the population is over 60, and the City was voted one of the top 5 cities nationwide to retire in.
