How We Help Families in Wayne, NJ and Surrounding Areas Get Started with Our Home Care Agency
Getting started with Visiting Angels is as easy as picking up the phone or filling out our form. At Visiting Angels of Wayne, we want to ensure that getting started with our home care agency is as easy as possible for families in Passaic and Bergen Counties. Realizing that your loved one needs professional in-home senior care can be a challenging experience., which is why we do all we can to simplify finding the right care for your loved one. The first step of finding care is scheduling a consultation with our care coordinators. You can either conduct the consultation at home or at our office in Wayne, NJ; it’s up to you.
During this initial care meeting, a care coordinator will meet with you to discuss the types of care our home care agency provides, your loved one’s health and wellness needs, and any other concerns you may have. This is the time for you to ask any questions that may come to mind. We want to ensure you have all the information you need to decide about your loved one’s care.
The focus of the initial care consultation is for you to get to know how Visiting Angels helps seniors and for us to get to know what kind of care your loved one needs. We also want to alleviate any concerns that you may have during this period.
During the care meeting, the care coordinating will discuss a variety of different factors, including:
- What to do in case of a scheduling change or conflict;
- Physical needs of the client, including mobility, dressing, and incontinence;
- Sleeping, eating, and medication schedules;
- Emotional needs of the client, including companionship, appointments, and social interaction;
- Homemaking needs, including laundry, dishes, and groceries.
If you’d like to continue working with Visiting Angels of Wayne as your preferred home care agency after the initial care meeting, we’ll establish a schedule, finalize your personalized senior care plan, schedule a nurse visit, and coordinate a meeting with our caregivers. Once your loved one has chosen which caregiver from our team they'd like to work with, we can begin providing care.
