About Us

"Thank you again for all of your help and kindness. My mother and I could not have gotten through the last week without your assistance."

Patty Laychock RRT and Kathy Callahan RN are owners and directors of Visiting Angels, Atlantic County, New Jersey. Patty and Kathy are sisters and each has over 20 years experience in healthcare. Kathy is a Registered Nurse and Patty as a Respiratory Therapist. They both have experience in all areas of patient care, including critical care, post op care, rehabilitation, sub acute, long term care and homecare.

The need for the elderly was apparent when they saw many avoidable hospital readmissions and nursing home placements of the elderly. Growing up they were always taught to respect and help the elderly and disabled and with their Visiting Angels franchise that is exactly what they are doing. Their Visiting Angels franchise is keeping the elderly independent in their homes, wherever they may call home. Some of our clients live with a spouse or alone, some with their adult children, and some in assisted living facilities. With the increasing incidence of falls and dementia, the need for In - Homecare increases to keep the elderly safe in their homes. Visiting Angel’s caregivers are bridging the gap for the families in the sandwich generation, those caring for their parents and their own children.

The Angels provide assistance with bathing, dressing, and toileting if needed, as well as meal preparation, light housework, companionship, errands, pet care, etc. The goal of Visiting Angels is to keep the elderly happy and independent as long as safely possible.

Together Kathy and Patty have operated their Visiting Angels franchise since 2005. By diligently screening and selecting qualified, compassionate caregivers “Angels” they have helped hundreds of families over the years.

Since becoming owners of a Visiting Angles franchise both Kathy and Pat have become Certified Dementia Practitioners. Pat has also become Certified Senior Advisor and Kathy continues her studies in nursing.
