At Visiting Angels Stratford, we understand you might have questions about arranging at home care for your senior loved one, so our local home care professionals are here to answer common questions families have about how we excel in home care services

Q: What services do you offer?

A: At Visiting Angels Stratford, we provide a variety of personal care services together with companion care. Our services are tailored to the needs of our clients. Our local home care professionals can help seniors with everyday tasks, medication and fluid reminders, light housekeeping, personal hygiene and running errands. Our goal is to help seniors stay independent and safe while living in the comfort of their home.

Q: Could you explain to me the term “aging in place”?

A: Aging in place means that a senior gets the professional care and support they need, but without moving to a nursing home or care facility. They stay in their home or live with their family.

Q: Are your senior care services also available in assisted living facilities?

A: Yes. Sometimes the care and help seniors receive in the assisted living facility may not be enough.
