Many families believe in-home care could benefit their loved ones, but worry setting up care could be a difficult process. With Visiting Angels^® Reno as your loved one’s in-home care provider, your family will have guidance and support as you arrange care that helps your loved one age in place.

We always begin with free care consultations and work with families to design personally tailored care plans. Then, we match seniors with caregivers who have the skills and disposition to deliver their personalized services.

About Your In-Home Care Consultation 

At Visiting Angels Reno, we want to ensure our services seamlessly fit into your loved one’s lifestyle. In order to provide the specific level of care they require, we meet with prospective care recipients and their families for an initial consultation before initiating the caregiving process. For our care coordinators, these meetings offer a chance to learn more about the senior and their unique needs. For families, these discussions present a great opportunity to ask questions about our approach to care and the logistics of caregiving.

Here are some examples of topics we typically cover during our care consultations:

• Which activities of daily living the senior requires help with
• How the caregiver will access the senior’s home
• Difficulties with strength, coordination, or mobility
• Issues related to chronic conditions or memory disorders
• How the senior enjoys spending their free time
• Meal preferences and dietary restrictions or concerns
• The senior’s current daily routines and habits
• How often the senior requires care
• Handling unexpected circumstances and schedule changes

Matching Seniors with In-Home Care Providers From Visiting Angels Reno

Our care consultations come with no strings attached, meaning there’s no pressure to continue with care if you feel we aren’t the right fit for your loved one’s needs. Should you decide to partner with us, we’ll choose a caregiver from our team to provide their services. We put several different considerations into this decision, including the senior’s personality, stated preferences, and specific care requirements.

When we make caregiver matches, we strive to lay the foundation for a lasting relationship between the senior and their care provider. Many of our caregivers become like family to their care recipients, establishing deep bonds that provide a source of social and emotional support throughout the ups and downs of aging.
