Home Care Services in Fort Wayne
As our parents and loved ones age, we naturally begin to worry whether we’ll be able to provide the amount of care necessary to allow them to remain at home. Knowing when it might be time to find outside help can be a difficult decision, further complicated by conflicting emotions. At Visiting Angels® Fort Wayne, we are experts at helping families assess the need for home care services for local seniors.
There are many reasons why it might be time you need some help with your senior. Some of the most important signs to look for is if they are:
- Having difficulty keeping up with daily activities or chores
- Suspected or diagnosed with dementia
- Have health or mobility issues
- No longer able to care for the other partner/spouse
- Doing fine but family caregivers need a respite
Visiting Angels Fort Wayne provides a no-cost, no-obligation, in-home consultation to help you assess your loved one’s situation. Additionally, during each consultation, we will provide a complimentary fall-risk assessment and explain how to avoid any potential issues.
