When a relative is struggling with dementia, they need help and support from those around them. But often, it can become too much for a family to bear alone. When this happens, Visiting Angels^® Huntsville can help. As a non-medical dementia care agency serving Huntsville, Decatur, Athens, Madison, Meridianville, and Hartselle, AL, we have a program designed exclusively for those facing early, mid, and late stages of dementia.
