Hot summer weather poses a significant health risk for seniors. Older adults are especially susceptible to conditions ranging from dehydration to heat stroke in hot, sunny weather. At Visiting Angels, we're committed to providing quality care for seniors that will help those in the older population stay safe in these conditions. Learn how you and your loved ones can stay safe and healthy as temperatures climb during the summer season.

As they age, seniors often struggle with loneliness, isolation, and a diminishing social circle, which can lead to poor mental, physical, and emotional health. Companion care provides a compassionate solution through social interaction, mental stimulation, and emotional support. Our caregivers at Visiting Angels are committed to improving the lives of seniors in the Asheville, North Carolina, area through dedicated and personalized companionship services.

Shadowing is a common behavior in Alzheimer's and dementia patients that can quickly become overwhelming for their caregivers. At Visiting Angels, we want to help you understand this habit of following others around, thereby making it easier for you to handle shadowing. Both patients and caregivers benefit when this issue is properly addressed and minimized.
