The question "What is in home care?" is one that you've probably been asking yourself. At Visiting Angels we've been experts in the care industry for many years and have the experience to help guide you through the care decision-making process.

The difficulty of allowing someone into your loved one’s home is something Visiting Angels of Fresno understands. How do you help someone keep their independence yet care for them in a way that enables them to be safe? How do you care for someone for many hours of the day, yet respecting the fact it is their home? And what about personalities? Your loved one’s home is special to both of you and allowing strangers in can throw off your connection.

These home care questions are something you and your families might be asking each other. Throughout our time as a home care agency, we have dealt with many different situations, schedules, personalities, and needs. Since this is a new process for you, we understand and take the time to answer all your questions.

Although most in home care requests are usually planned, families deserve and need the time to research and evaluate care agencies. Visiting Angels of Fresno can respond quickly to those families and clients that require a faster response in situations as a result of an emergency or a late day discharge from a medical facility such as a hospital or rehabilitation facility. We can provide services for in-hospital assistance, assisted living facility, bedside care, or to an elder who is being discharged from the hospital or rehabilitation. Major transitions such as assisted living to a family member’s home or relocation into a family member’s home is also something, we can provide services for.
