How Visiting Angels Assists Seniors
With a helping hand from Visiting Angels, your loved one can feel content and secure in a familiar place—home.
Helping Seniors Age in Place
At Visiting Angels, we know how much older adults want to live at home for as long as possible. However, remaining safe and comfortable at home alone can be challenging and sometimes impossible.
As your loved one ages, they may lose mobility, strength, and coordination, which can impede their daily activities and routines. As a result, they may also lose their independence and self-worth.
As one of America's leading home care providers for more than 25 years, Visiting Angels offers a safe, affordable alternative to assisted living—even if your loved one needs Alzheimer’s care or dementia care.
Essential In-Home Care Services for Seniors
Our professional caregivers provide non-medical assistance and companionship for seniors of all ages and abilities. We balance our senior care services to support your loved one’s personal preferences together with their physical and cognitive needs. We'll also help restore your peace of mind, knowing your loved one is aging in place with a dedicated professional caregiver by their side.
Examples of some essential tasks our caregivers can provide for your senior loved one include:
- Bathing
- Dressing
- Grooming
- Mobility & transfers
- Medication reminders
- Toileting
- Companionship
- Errands
- Laundry
- Light housekeeping
- Meal planning & preparation
- Transportation assistance
Professional in-home senior care services are provided by bonded, insured professional caregivers. Your loved one will get a customized plan tailored to their needs and preferences. Specialized services, such as Alzheimer's care, dementia care, and end-of-life care, are available if they have advanced needs.
Benefits of Aging in Place
According to a 2021 study conducted by the AARP, 77% of adults age 50 and older want to remain in their homes as they age.
Without professional home care, many seniors struggle to maintain their independence. While an assisted living facility may be an option, it requires moving your loved one into a new place.
Our compassionate caregivers can enable your senior to remain safely at home—maintaining their dignity and giving you peace of mind.
The benefits of professional in-home care include:
- Companionship
Professional caregivers provide camaraderie and social interaction, which can reduce the risk of social isolation, depression, and anxiety.
A professional caregiver can also encourage your loved one to stay connected to friends and relatives through phone and video calls as well as facilitate in-person visits. - Familiar Surroundings and Routines
Your senior can continue to live in a secure and comfortable environment without the hassle of relocating to a family member’s home or an assisted living facility. They can maintain their routines—from watching TV in a favorite chair to individual mealtime preferences to nightly neighborhood strolls—in familiar surroundings. - Flexibility
Visiting Angels allows you to customize the care schedule and receive help when needed to avoid paying for unnecessary services and amenities. - Lower Costs
Home care costs are usually lower than 24/7 assisted living or nursing home care rates. Assisted living facilities, nursing homes, and senior communities often require a large, up-front cash deposit — and there may be a lengthy waiting list to move in. - Personalized Assistance
Staff at assisted living facilities often care for more than one older adult during each shift.
In-home personal care from Visiting Angels will help your older adult receive one-on-one assistance tailored to their unique needs. - Reduced Risk of Falls, Injuries, and Household Accidents
Our caregivers are trained in fall prevention and will take precautions to help your loved one stay safe at home. A personal home care worker can also decrease the risk of accidents in injury-prone places, such as the kitchen and bathroom.
Get Started with Home Care
Choosing the right home care provider is an important decision. A Visiting Angels care coordinator will guide you through the entire process, starting with a free, no-obligation home care consultation to talk about services, schedules, and personal preferences.
