The passing of time can bring about many changes. Some of which we expect and others that we don’t. As we age, one uncertain thing is whether we may need assistance with the things that were once second nature for us to do. Activities of daily living, such as household maintenance or personal care, may become difficult. If your senior loved one struggles to complete basic tasks like cooking or cleaning, it may be time to consider hiring a professional caregiver. 

Visiting Angels North Pittsburgh is proud to be a compassionate and understanding solution for senior residents in Wexford who wish to age in place in comfort and safety. Our in-home caregivers can provide non-medical assistance to older adults who want to continue living independently at home rather than at an assisted living facility, nursing home, or comparable alternative.

Making a Difference in Wexford with Personalized Care

To help our care recipients stay at home for as long as possible, we offer many service options that can be included in their customized care plans. 

Here are some of the types of non-medical in-home care Visiting Angels North Pittsburgh offers:

• Help with hygiene, bathing, and toileting routines
• Medication reminders
• Grocery shopping and healthy meal preparation
• Mobility assistance to prevent falls
• Light chores, such as washing dishes and vacuuming
• Transportation to and from appointments and recreation
• Joyful conversation and shared activities
• Respite care for family caregivers

If your senior or disabled family member requires more in-depth care due to a memory-related condition or loss of mobility, we also offer specialized care plans that include:

• Alzheimer’s and Dementia Care: Personalized care for those with cognitive or memory-related illnesses. 
• Palliative Care: A holistic approach to care for those with chronic conditions.
• Fall Prevention: Safety advice and home modifications to avoid falls and their resulting injuries. 
• End of Life Care: Compassionate support for those with terminal illness. 
• Social Care: Patient and gentle instruction in technology to help seniors stay connected to their loved ones. 
• Transitional Care: Care during a hospital discharge and recovery to avoid hospital readmission. 

An additional benefit of aging in place is the ability to continue enjoying local favorites. What meaningful activities does your loved one enjoy in the Wexford area? Since our experienced caregivers are part of your surrounding community, they can assist their clients on outings such as relaxing walks around Phipps Conservatory and Botanical Gardens. 

We know your loved one will spend much time with their caregiver. That’s why we prioritize matching our care recipients with kind, friendly individuals who share their interests and personality traits.
