About Our Customizable Personal Care

Personal and private duty care from Visiting Angels Lexington is unique from that of other agencies. We create a customized care plan for each of the seniors we work with.

By learning about your loved one and designing a personal care plan for their specific needs, Visiting Angels Lexington can help them maintain their independence for longer.

Our goal is to make aging in place possible for seniors in the Lexington area. We provide assistance with a variety of everyday tasks, making it easier and more comfortable for seniors to live at home.

This enables us to hire caregivers who are knowledgeable, compassionate, and trustworthy. We also work to carefully pair our clients with caregivers who match their needs, scheduling requirements, and personality traits. Both you and your loved one should feel comfortable working with our team.

Getting Started with Personal Care
