It can be challenging to watch a loved one age naturally, fight against diseases like cancer or late-stage dementia, or manage a chronic illness. As family members, we witness someone we cherish and love going through hardship. Even though we recognize that dying is a normal part of life, that understanding does not make the process any less difficult.

To ensure a loved one's comfort as they near death, contact Visiting Angels of Mercer & Burlington Counties when a loved one's physician or medical team recommends it's time to hire a professional in-home caregiver. For many years, we have offered compassionate end-of-life care services to families in Lawrenceville, Willingboro, and the nearby Mercer and Burlington County areas of New Jersey. Our in-home senior care services help families and older people themselves get through this trying and sometimes overwhelming period.

Our caregivers are here to help your loved one through this transition. When providing end-of-life care for families in Mercer & Burlington Counties, we emphasize compassion and understanding. Our end-of-life care service is designed to provide your loved one with the comforts of life in their final days.

• Toileting and care for incontinence; moving and arranging

We cooperate with hospice care providers, who are typically in charge of a loved one's final medical needs.

Hospice care is generally only available for a brief period. Visiting Angels of Mercer & Burlington's end-of-life care can help close the gaps by offering support and companionship.
