In-home senior care is quickly becoming the preferred alternative to assisted living or nursing home facilities for elderly adults in the Dallas area. It is common for seniors to want to remain in their homes as they age – often rightfully so! Home is a comfortable, familiar place that allows them to stick to their preferred routines. At Visiting Angels Dallas, we aim to support independent seniors in Dallas, TX who choose to live at home by providing offering meaningful care and support.

Families may know that their loved one would prefer to stay in their home but don’t understand how to finance this type of care. Visiting Angels is a private pay caregiving agency. This means that in most instances, clients pay for senior home care services privately, out-of-pocket. However, your loved one may be eligible for benefits that may help cover some of the cost of professional care.

How Do Families in Dallas, TX Benefit from Professional Senior Home Care Services?

When you decide that senior home care services are the best option for your elderly loved one, it is essential to choose the right provider. Unlike independent caregivers who do not work for a certified agency, Visiting Angels caregivers are carefully screened, trained, and monitored before being placed in a client’s home.

So here's why should you choose Visiting Angels Dallas instead of a private caregiver:

• You’re in control - We create a customized plan of care for each senior client, detailing the type of care needed and schedule of caregiver visits. We will find the best qualified caregiver who can be regularly available to your family. Consistency is key and we will do our best to assign a caregiver who can meet your loved one’s care needs, schedule, and personality.


• We handle the details - All of our caregivers are carefully screened, including background checks, employment verification, and training. We assume full liability for our caregivers, meaning that you are not at risk for any employee issues. Our agency will also handle payroll, benefits, and scheduling so that you can focus on your loved one, not their managing caregiver.

Financing Private Senior Home Care Services in Dallas, TX

As a professional senior care agency, Visiting Angels Dallas accepts long-term care insurance, Aid & Attendance and private pay as methods of financing our senior home care services. Learn more about your options here or call our office to learn more.

Long-Term Care Insurance

The majority of traditional medical and health insurance plans do not cover professional senior home care services that do not include home health care. However, there is a specific type of insurance policy known as long-term care insurance which will cover an adult’s future care needs.

A long-term care insurance policy is typically taken out by middle-aged adults or those who are not yet needing care at home. This type of policy is taken out to prepare for future needs. If someone already requires care, it is unlikely that they will qualify for a long-term care insurance policy.

Next steps: Talk with your senior loved one, their Power of Attorney or their insurance broker to determine if this type of policy has been established. The insurance carrier will be able to detail what services are covered and to what amount.

Veterans Benefits

Elderly veterans and surviving spouses may be eligible to use their monthly pension in order to pay for senior home care services from Visiting Angels Dallas. If your loved one needs assistance with everyday tasks such as bathing and making meals, they may be eligible for additional benefits called Aid and Attendance. We can work with you to find the resources needed to determine your eligibility and how to apply for these benefits in order to make our services more affordable for your family.

Privately, Out of Pocket

Senior home care services are financed privately for those without a long-term care insurance policy. Seniors and their families may pay from their income, savings, or sharing expenses.

The cost of care will depend on the type of assistance your loved one needs and the amount of care required. When a family comes to us interested in our services, the first step is to schedule a free consultation. We will discuss your loved one’s needs, make a recommended care plan, and determine the exact cost.
