What Does It Mean to “Age in Place”?
Seniors who choose to “age in place” want to remain in their homes, rather than moving into a facility or retirement residence. Aging in place means remaining independent and maintaining their unique lifestyle while growing older. Seniors often want to stay in their familiar setting among the neighbors and friends they have grown to love. Visiting Angels of Kansas City’s senior home care enables clients to remain at home while getting help with daily tasks that may have become too difficult.

Do You Provide Care in Assisted Living and Nursing Facilities?
Sometimes our clients move into live-in facilities and realize that the care does not completely meet their needs, especially if the facility is at maximum capacity. A caregiver can be present around-the-clock or for just a few hours a day to provide supplemental personal care and attention.
Can I Change My Care Plan, Schedule, or Caregiver?
Yes! We will modify your care plan as needed when health conditions change. We will also work with schedule changes and caregiver change requests. While we do our best to find the perfect match for your loved one, if you believe the match is not quite right, you can request a different caregiver at any time, for any reason. We strive to be flexible and communicative, because our priority is to provide the best possible senior home care for your loved one.
