Private home care is an increasingly popular option for seniors in Aurora, Denver, Centennial, and surrounding Colorado communities because they can retain their current lifestyle, independence, and connections to family and friends. But, living alone can present new challenges for seniors and their families. Visiting Angels of Aurora is your local resource that can support a wide variety of daily needs and become a support network, working alongside your family to increase the well-being of an aging loved one.

If your loved one needs to get around town but is unable to drive themselves, our caregivers can help. Visiting Angels of Aurora offers incidental transportation so that seniors can get to medical appointments, social gatherings with friends and family, and anywhere else they need to go.

Transportation Is a Major Need for Seniors

Transportation is a common issue for seniors who live at home, especially seniors who live alone. Many aspects of changing health can curtail driving abilities for seniors, whether it is vision or hearing, reduced mobility, or other physical and mental health challenges. When an aging loved one gives up their driving privileges, it can leave them at the mercy of family members’ schedules when trying to get to doctor’s appointments, run errands, refill prescriptions, and more.

How Visiting Angels of Aurora Can Help

When you receive private home care services from Visiting Angels of Aurora, you will have a dedicated caregiver who is licensed, bonded, insured, fully trained, and experienced who will work with you to make sure every need your loved one has is met. That includes transportation!

Incidental transportation services are available from one of our caregivers to help your loved one access resources in the community, attend events, socialize, and run errands. Transportation can also be a component of other parts of your loved one’s care plan: we can help them take a stroll in a local park, visit with friends and family, or enjoy a cup of coffee at a local diner. Because a personal care assistant can also help with mobility device usage and mobility assistance generally, there is no better way for your loved one to get around.

We Offer More Than Just Transportation

Transportation services are just one part of a comprehensive care plan from Visiting Angels of Aurora. We can help with every daily need your loved one might experience, including meal preparation, light housekeeping, laundry, linens changing, and personal care including bathing and toileting. Our caregivers will work hard to implement private home care regimens from your loved one’s medical providers, including medication reminders, dietary assistance, or mobility device usage.
