About Visiting Angels of South Elgin:
Philosophy: Bill and Arlene Petersen, owners of Visiting Angels of South Elgin, have always believed that they are in business to provide the best care possible to their clients as well as total respect and appreciation to the care giving staff. It is a priority to Bill, Arlene and their staff to check in frequently with both clients and caregivers to make sure they feel cared for and appreciated. “It’s all about relationship building”, Bill summarizes. “We want to be in contact with our employees and clients all the time to make sure we manage and take care of the small stuff before misunderstandings turn into big issues later on.” Relationship building, authenticity, and open-door communication is what keeps Visiting Angels a step apart from other agencies. That's why Visiting Angels is... "America's Personal Choice in Homecare."
