About Our Home Care Services in Los Angeles

It's common for seniors to find that their ability to complete basic tasks declines over time. This could be the result of a memory disorder, mobility limitations, general cognitive decline, or a lack of energy and stamina.

As part of our caregiving approach, our care professionals are ready to deliver support with the many aspects of daily life that can become a challenge for older adults. Examples of our services include the following:

• Planning and preparing meals for a healthy diet
• Getting dressed daily, grooming, and showering
• Walking and transferring assistance to new locations
• Remembering medication timings and other essential tasks
• Going to doctors' appointments or running errands
• Doing light chores and keeping the house tidy
• Giving family caregivers time off and respite
• Helping seniors engage in social activities and conversation

Understanding How Home Care Works

When it comes to your loved one's needs and personal situation, you and your family are the experts. Instead of taking a one-size-fits-all approach to delivering care, we will tailor the services we offer your loved one to suit the information you give us. We are ready to accommodate personal preferences and special requests to promote a comfortable experience of aging in place.

Here are the steps we'll take to set up home care that is right for your loved one:

A free and informative care consultation. 
At no charge to your family, we will meet with you and your loved one for an initial visit. During this conversation, we will answer your questions and ask questions about their daily routines and challenges. 

Proposing a customized care plan. 
Drawing on all that we've learned from you and your loved one, we'll start building a personally tailored plan of care and schedule of care visits.

Making a caregiver-care recipient match. 
The final step is to pair your loved one with a member of our caregiving team who has the right skills, scheduling availability, and personality to accommodate your loved one's unique circumstances. Our goal is to make a match that instills you with confidence about your loved one's care and helps them feel completely at ease each and every day. 

Types of Home Care in Los Angeles

The types of home care we offer are numerous. To learn more about the various levels of care available from Visiting Angels Santa Monica, take a look at the list below.

Companion Care

Our caregivers act as compassionate companions who bring warmth, joy, and emotional support to seniors' lives. As elderly adults are often at risk of becoming isolated, companion care services can be critical to their long-term well-being.

Personal Care

Elderly adults who could benefit from having physical assistance with daily routines like showering and dressing often require what we call personal care. These services allow seniors to go about life at home while remaining safe and comfortable despite mobility restrictions or other age-related issues.

Alzheimer's Care and Dementia Care

A memory disorder diagnosis doesn't have to spell the end to living at home for your loved one. Our specialized memory care services, for those with Alzheimer's or another form of dementia, facilitate aging in place even for those who struggle with challenging symptoms. Moreover, help from our care providers makes it possible for seniors to experience the advantages of staying in a familiar environment.

Respite Care

Caregiving is hard work, and family caregivers often end up taking on more responsibilities than they can handle. Respite care offers temporary relief for these individuals so they can make time for self-care and take a balanced approach to their role in their loved one's life.

Transitional Care

Seniors who do not have assistance with the process of being discharged from the hospital and recovering at home often face complications that require readmission to the hospital. The goal of our Ready-Set-Go Home program is to lower the risk of complications, so seniors can remain in the comfort of home for longer.

Fall Prevention

We can conduct a fall safety assessment at your loved one's home and make suggestions to help them avoid falls that could have a huge impact on their health and independence. We also offer mobility support and assistance with transference to further lower the risk of falls for our care recipients.
