Q: What is "aging in place"?
A: When we refer to "aging in place," we are talking about enabling older adults to remain in the comfort of their own homes as they age without compromising their independence or safety. We help seniors accomplish this by providing personalized senior care at home. Aging in place is often described as the opposite of moving to a retirement home or assisted living facility, which would be an older adult’s alternative to in-home care.
Q: My loved one lives in an assisted living facility. Can they still receive your senior care services?
A: Of course they can. Often, older adults find they need a bit more help than they already receive in their assisted living facility to maintain their independence. We can help. Visiting Angels Mobile can assign a caregiver to your loved one, and they can help them live on their own terms and achieve anything they would like in their golden years.
Q: How soon after initiating contact can my parent receive care at home from Visiting Angels?
A: In some cases, we can dispatch a caregiver the same day. Most of the time, however, a caregiver will be ready to work with your loved one within 48 hours.
Q: Can in-home care schedules be changed or adjusted?
A: Absolutely. One key to quality caregiving is flexibility. With a week's notice, we can make any adjustments you wish.
