Benefits of One-on-One Care for Seniors

Unlike assisted living facilities or senior living communities, in-home care enables seniors to remain in their residence while getting the assistance they need. One-on-one care limits your loved one’s potential exposure to germs and illness as they receive care from one familiar caregiver.

One-on-one care also ensures your loved one receives personalized attention and hands-on support. A dedicated caregiver will get to know your loved one’s personality, preferences, and schedule. Building this relationship helps provide a higher standard of care.

How Senior Care at Home Works

The first step to getting started with in-home care is identifying what your loved one’s day-to-day needs will be if they remain at home.

Some of the most common ways Visiting Angels Richmond VA assists includes:

• Bathing and showing, getting dressed, toileting or incontinence care
• Grocery shopping, running errands, and preparing meals
• Conversation, games, activities, and utilizing in-home technology like streaming services, video calls or social media
• Medication and fluid reminders, mobility assistance and fall prevention
• Transportation to doctor’s appointments
• Basic housekeeping, laundry and emptying trash bins

Once you know they types of things your loved one will need help with, we’ll work with you to create a care plan and schedule. We can provide care for as little as a few hours each week to full-time, overnight, or even 24/7 care.
