How to Get Started

At Visiting Angels^® Southeast Portland, our in-home care is designed to help West Linn area seniors remain in their own homes and avoid the transition to a care facility. Our goal is to provide the customized and attentive care each person needs to maintain a safe and stable home environment as they age in place. 

In order to provide the ideal level of support for your loved one, we invite your family for a free initial care consultation before beginning our service. This meeting will help us understand your situation. It will also give us the chance to answer your questions and figure out the most effective care strategy for your loved one. To help you ease into this process, let's go over some of the topics that will likely be discussed during this initial care meeting. 

Common In-Home Care Topics

By familiarizing yourself with these topics, you can prepare yourself for our initial care consultation. Here is some of the info we'll cover:

• Physical Care Needs. We need to know the exact level of physical care your loved one requires. Do they need help with self-care tasks like bathing and grooming? Do they need mobility assistance to get around safely? 
• Emotional Care Needs. In addition to all of the physical support, our goal is to create a happier and more positive living environment. Seniors often struggle with loneliness and isolation, so having a kindhearted person around to talk to can be a tremendous benefit.
• Schedules. We will discuss your scheduling requirements and figure out the logistics of how we can help.
• Homemaking Assistance. Our caregivers can help out with light housework, errands, meal prep, and more.
• Logistics. We'll cover logistical issues like documentation, home access, and more.
