Many elderly adults find themselves spending more and more time alone as they age. Whether due to retirement, loss of a spouse or partner, or long-distance moves, it is not uncommon for senior loved ones to be alone for much of the day. If you have concerns about the amount of time your loved one spends by themselves, we can help. Visiting Angels® Winnetka can provide your loved one with elderly companion care services. Elderly care not only gives your loved one regular contact with a compassionate caregiver, but it provides them with assistance for the activities of everyday living. Our help with essential personal daily tasks makes independent living more enjoyable for seniors.
