Help Unlimited Renews Easy Lift Sponsorship

“As part of our ongoing partnership with local business and organizations, it is most gratifying to have the continued support of Help Unlimited,” said Ernesto Paredes, Easy Lift Executive Director. “In fact, because of help from partners in the community like Help Unlimited, Easy Lift has been able to significantly increase the number of rides we provide through our dial-a-ride program.”

“We are thrilled to be able to support such a great organization as Easy Lift by having Help Unlimited prominently displayed on our sponsored van. It is a win/win for all involved. It allows us to support the excellent service that Easy Lift provides the community and our advertisement keeps us in the public eye. We love Easy Lift!” said Leeana McNeilly, Director of Help Unlimited.

For over 30 years, Help Unlimited has provided a full circle of care to members of the Santa Barbara community so they can remain safe and comfortable in their homes. Providing the very best caregivers is a top priority for Help Unlimited. As such, they only select caregivers who are consistent, reliable, and outstanding, and who have the right skills for their clients’ needs. They also benchmark each caregiver with a question: would we want our loved one to be cared for by this person? Help Unlimited Homecare provides skilled services covered by Medicare such as skilled nursing, physical, occupational, and speech therapists. Their Care Management and referral program provides assistance with medical, fiduciary or legal issues.
