Q. What elder care services do you provide in Bethesda and surrounding areas?
Visiting Angels of Bethesda provides a comprehensive range of companion care and personal home care services.

Q: What does "aging in place" mean?
The best way to describe what "aging in place" means is to start by talking about what it is not. It definitely does not entail moving older adults to nursing homes or assisted living facilities. Aging in place is all about continuing comfort, avoiding stress and helping seniors continue to live on their own terms in their own homes. At Visiting Angels of Bethesda, we provide assistance for seniors living at home so they can continue to age in place while staying safe and comfortable.
