Visiting Angels Provides Alzheimer’s Elderly Home Care That Can Keep Your Loved One Comfortable and Independent for Longer in Augusta, Evans, and Surrounding Areas
Years ago, it was true that few health services could meet the needs of individuals diagnosed with Alzheimer’s other than live-in facilities with costly, stressful around-the-clock nursing. Today, Visiting Angels of Augusta is at the forefront of Alzheimer's care and dementia care services that can help seniors stay safe, happy, and healthy in their own homes for longer. At Visiting Angels of Augusta, we know your number one priority is your loved one’s health and well-being, and we are here to partner with you in providing for their needs.
More than five million Americans have been diagnosed with Alzheimer’s. Your loved one will need a support network of family, friends, community services, and medical care providers to contribute to their well-being. The elderly home care services from Visiting Angels of Augusta are designed to support the changes in physical, mental, emotional, and social health that will occur as Alzheimer’s progress.
