Dementia Care Services Offered to Boerne Area Seniors

At Visiting Angels Boerne, our mission is to improve the quality of life for those we serve. We do it in a variety of ways through our dementia care program for local seniors. Beyond providing in-home care, our services can also help prolong or avoid the need for a nursing home, ensuring your loved one can stay where they're happiest – at home – for as long as possible.

Aging in place can be very beneficial for seniors living with dementia. With physical, mental, and emotional changes happening frequently, the consistency and familiarity of home are comforting. Being surrounded by familiar objects and surroundings can also help engage your loved one’s memory during times of confusion or disorientation. Our services allow your loved one to continue aging in place safely and comfortably.

When seeking in-home care for your loved one, you want them to be well cared for at all times. At Visiting Angels Boerne, we employ local caregivers who have been fully vetted before joining our team. Each of our employees has gone through a series of interviews and background checks. This allows us to select knowledgeable and passionate caregivers who will provide exceptional senior care for our clients. You can rest assured your loved one is in good hands with our team.

Another way we serve our clients is by offering our Select Your Caregiver^® program. During your initial care consultation, our team will gather information about your loved one’s needs, schedule, and personality. We will select a caregiver that closely matches these qualities. If your loved one is unsatisfied with the initial pairing, we will work with them to choose another caregiver.
