Need caregiver agencies in Los Angeles?

Question

I need to find caregiver agencies in Los Angeles for my 92 year old great uncle. He needs someone who is there 24 hours (he usually has 2 people work 12-hour shifts) to assist him. These people need to speak English. Any agency that can give us multiple people for the 14 weekly shifts would be much appreciated. Also, if possible, do you know any agencies with many men? That would make this a lot easier. If you have recommendations on any agency from yourself or someone else, that could help too.

Thanks in advance. We'll try as many agencies as necessary before we find some good matches.
