In Home Care in Chicago: Helping When Family Isn't Nearby

Provider of in home care for Chicago with elderly patient

Growing older in a big city can be tough, especially for seniors who don't have family in the Chicago area. While there's no shortage of things to do or places to go, actually getting around can be challenging when all the streets are bustling with people and the streets are still icy from the last winter storm. If you have older relatives living in Chicago, you want to do whatever you can to help them stay comfortable in the city they love, even if you can't be there to do so in person. Fortunately, there are many different ways to make their lives better, like setting them up with an in home care provider in Chicago.

How You Can Make a Difference for Your Relatives in Chicago

Reaching out to a local in home care provider like Visiting Angels® Chicago can go a long way toward making sure your elderly family members continue to live safely and happily at home. Beyond this all-important step, you can also try the following approaches:

  • Direct them to local resources like ride shares and volunteer driving services for seniors and special events at community centers and libraries.
  • Schedule visits from various friends and family members from out of town so your loved one has a steady stream of company coming.
  • Keep them stocked up with groceries, prescriptions, and other essentials by setting up regular deliveries.
  • Make sure all their bills get paid on time by helping your loved one set up online banking and auto-pay.
  • Get in the habit of using video chat technology with your relative to actually see how well they're looking after themselves as well as how they sound.

How You Can Stay Involved with Their In Home Care in Chicago

At Visiting Angels Chicago, we appreciate that senior care is a family affair, which is why we include family members in our process from the very beginning, and continue to keep them in the loop once we start providing care. 

Generally, we provide a free in-home consultation for our clients in Chicago and their loved ones, which gives us a chance to learn more about the needs, goals, and preferences of everyone involved. For family members who live outside the city, we provide a phone consultation in addition to our in-home session, and will continue to provide updates by phone or email about their relative.

To learn more about in home care or to book an in-home consultation in Chicago, call Visiting Angels Chicago today. We also operate in Morton Grove, Niles, Golf, and Lincolnwood.
