If you have an elderly parent or family member, you have heard the term "home care" in passing. But what exactly does it mean? Home care refers to non-medical assistance provided in the comfort of home. This can cover a broad range of specific care types. For Visiting Angels^® Bowling Green OH, this care refers to companion care, social care, palliative care, dementia care, end of life care, personal care, transitional care, respite care, Alzheimer's care, and other types of non-medical assistance.

What are the benefits of care at home vs. residential nursing care? With home care from Visiting Angels Bowling Green, seniors are not only able to remain independent at home, but they have the ability to manage their own schedule and keep their preferred routines. Receiving aid at home also provides seniors with one-on-one personalized attention from a care professional.
