At Visiting Angels Southwest Oklahoma City, our goal is to offer tailored in-home care services for the veterans in our communities, honoring the sacrifices they’ve made for our country. Our team of dedicated caregivers is prepared to support Southwest Oklahoma City veterans and their families, allowing them to age at home comfortably while also receiving quality care.

We’re a Flexible Home Care Provider for Veterans’ Needs

Just like civilians, as veterans age, added challenges can arise, making usual routine tasks more difficult to handle alone. Veterans can also be predisposed to certain disabilities and conditions as a result of their military experiences. To maintain a safe yet independent life, Visiting Angels Southwest Oklahoma City offers a wide variety of non-medical home care services to aging veterans who need a helping hand at home. To do this, we provide compassionate caregivers, or “Angels,” to help with homemaking and personal tasks like the following:

• Companion Care: We help reduce isolation and make sure that our clients stay socially engaged. Our caregivers offer companionship, meal preparation, light housekeeping, and even help with errands like getting groceries or picking up prescriptions.
• Personal Care: We can help with essential daily tasks like dressing, grooming, bathing, and maintaining other personal hygiene tasks. Our team makes sure that our veteran clients receive dignified home care that supports their well-being.
• Respite Care: Family caregivers are essential for many veterans to continue living comfortably at home. Our respite care services allow these family members to take time off, knowing that their veteran loved one is in capable hands.
• Specialized Care: Many veterans require specialized care plans due to the unique situations they faced during time served. Our caregivers are thoroughly trained to deliver specialized support personalized to meet each client's needs, bringing comfort and safety to local SWOKC veterans–the least we can do for them!
