About Us

At Visiting Angels Albany, OR, our goal is to offer consistently high-quality, non‑medical services to seniors throughout Marion‑Polk and Linn‑Benton counties. For over 20 years, we’ve made it our mission to enable older adults to remain safely and comfortably in their homes by providing compassionate support for their physical, emotional, social, and cognitive well‑being.

Diverse Services Based on the Community’s Needs

Being based in Albany for as long as we have, our care team has become intimately familiar with the needs of older groups in our area. This background has also helped us design programs that we believe are essential to addressing the most pressing needs of elderly people in this region.

Our primary focus is serving those who want to continue living independently rather than have to move to an assisted living facility, as well as people who are still able to conduct life on their own but benefit from additional support with certain activities. Sometimes an individual has a condition that is worsening, and family members are no longer able to help out sufficiently in their home.

An Albany-Based, Award-Winning Agency

We offer personalized care to address a broad variety of circumstances: for families who need a respite, for residents with dementia or Alzheimer’s, and to address common needs such as fall prevention and post‑hospital discharge. We make a point of guiding folks through the decision-making process and helping them tailor their requests so each individual gets an appropriate caregiver when they need it.

• Senior home care services to cover wide-ranging activities of daily living
• Personalized support with dignity in areas such as grooming, toileting, and bathing
• Companionship provided by friendly and compassionate caregivers
• Respite for the family when you need a break from your duties
• Assistance with socialization, including at events outside of the home
• And more—just tell us what you need.

We’re proud that our services have been endorsed by Home Care Pulse—now Activated Insights, which requires a high level of quality and consistency of standards over an extended period of time. We think it matters that we have been recognized by the organization both from the client’s perspective and from that of the professionals we hire, for excellence as an employer and industry leader.

We Use Specialized Services to Customize Care Plans

Like many Visiting Angels locations throughout the country, we offer a range of specialized services that address needs specific to older residents in our region. In Marion-Polk and Linn-Benton counties, dementia-related problems are among the most pressing concerns that families bring to us, but there are many others. That is why we have different targeted programs that can be tailored to your loved one’s unique needs, ranging from palliative care and respite care for the family to fall prevention and transitional assistance for folks heading home from the hospital.

How We Assist Families in Our Area

Visiting Angels Albany strives to be a valued source of information in our community, where families can look to for advice on creating the most appropriate care plans, as well as for online resources that can be explored at your leisure.
