Home Care in Hampden
At Visiting Angels® Southbridge, we provide home care for Hampden area residents. Designed for seniors who wish to remain living in their own homes, but require some help to make that possible, our services include everything from basic household tasks to personal care duties such as bathing and using the toilet. Our caregivers are all kind, loving professionals who will provide crucial assistance and positive companionship for your loved one.
Located in Hampden County, Hampden is a small town in Massachusetts and the English patriot John Hampden’s namesake.
Once an agricultural town with many orchards and milk-producing cows, Hampden became a summertime destination for Springfield residents who vacationed in Hampden.
Today, Hampden is home to approximately 5,000 residents, with nearly 20% of the population over the age of 65.
To identify the needs of Hampden’s older residents, the Council on Aging in cooperation with the Commonwealth of Massachusetts Executive Office of Elder Affairs supports programs designed for older adults in the Community.
The Hampden Senior Center offers many services and activities for seniors, including painting, billiards, Bingo, Bridge, Bunco, card marking, Cribbage, facials, fitness, knitting, line dancing, manicures, movies, quality, readers groups, Rummikub, Tai Chi, trivia, watercolors, weight training, and yoga.
The Hampden Senior Center also provides opportunities for bus trips to Atlantic City, Boston, Vermont, and more.
The Hampden Farmers’ Market offers fresh fruits, vegetables, eggs, homemade canned items, breads, cookies, and more. SNAP is accepted. This weekly market is a great opportunity for seniors to get out of the house and meet up with friends while supporting local farmers.
If your elderly loved one would like to attend some of these programs but transportation is an issue, Visiting Angels can help!
Getting Started With Hampden Home Care Assistance
Visiting Angels can provide support services that will produce many wonderful advantages for your loved one and our help allows family members to delegate their own care duties and get the rest they deserve.
