Visiting Angels of Lithonia Offers Certified Palliative Care in Lithonia, Decatur, Snellville, and Nearby Areas

Certified Palliative Care improves quality of life by focusing on seniors’ physical, emotional, social, and spiritual needs. This program goes beyond above and beyond, providing assistance and comfort regardless of life expectancy.

While most people use the terms “palliative care” and “hospice care” interchangeably, these are traditionally thought of as different types of care.

Palliative and hospice care have many similarities. At their core, both seek to relieve discomfort and improve overall quality of life. However, hospice care is typically reserved for those who are nearing the end of life. Traditionally, palliative care is for anyone who needs care focused on their comfort and well-being, regardless of their life expectancy.

At Visiting Angels of Lithonia, ur goal is to enrich quality of life for all clients through specialized, non-medical care and assistance.

Certified Palliative Care Program

Certified Palliative Care is provided through our Life Care Navigation^™ collection of senior care services. Life Care Navigation™ also includes end of life care, which can provide your loved one with comforting care and assistance during the end of life process.

The Visiting Angels of Lithonia's Certification Program trains caregivers in a philosophy of care that is supportive, soothing, comforting, and which approaches care with a holistic mindset. We approach care with a mission of restoring hope and assisting with healing.

• We address the emotional needs of our clients by adopting a compassionate approach, supporting seniors who may be suffering from depression, loneliness, stress, or anxiety.
• We address the social needs of elderly adults by building relationships with our clients and their families, and by providing those in our care with companionship and conversation.
• We address the spiritual needs of seniors by restoring hope to seniors’ lives, helping them find comfort and relief from age-related difficulties and treating each client with dignity and respect.
