As we age, it is normal to begin to slow down. Adult children of elderly parents often find themselves in the position of primary caregiver for their loved ones. It can be challenging to balance a career, kids of your own, social obligations, and more, when a parent or loved one needs increasing amounts of assistance. Many families throughout DeKalb, Lee, and Ogle Counties rely on assistance in the form of home care from Visiting Angels^® DeKalb IL.
