Dementia is a growing concern for elderly, and occasionally younger, adults. If you have a mother or father who is living with the effects of dementia, you know firsthand the amount of care and support they require. A high percentage of care is provided by family caregivers or friends. While seniors may initially need occasional support from friends and family, as the disorder progresses they will need more and more aid in order to remain independent. Professional dementia care from Visiting Angels^® Columbia MO can take the pressure off family caregivers and help seniors remain safe and comfortable at home.

If your mother or father has been diagnosed with dementia, we can help keep them safe at home by providing compassionate aid for day-to-day tasks.
