It can be difficult for seniors to get around, particularly if they've given up their driving privileges. Our caregivers can assist your loved one with completing any essential errands or tasks. We can help with shopping trips and other errands, and loved ones can either stay at home or go along for the ride.
Transportation
Seniors can lose their ability to drive due to age-related issues that impact their hand-eye coordination or vision. That's why we help our clients get to their destination, like medical appointments, social gatherings, and anywhere else they need to go with incidental transportation services.
Medication Reminders
Although our long-term care providers are not permitted to administer medicines, they can help clients take them as prescribed. Caregivers can help with the opening of containers, reading of labels, and offering dosage reminders.

Affording Long-Term Care in Springfield, MO and Surrounding Areas
Although long-term care can be highly beneficial in many different situations, it can also be expensive. Fortunately, Visiting Angels of Springfield accepts long-term care insurance policies for seniors who need this level of in-home care. It's important for older adults to look into investing in this type of insurance policy as early as possible so they can have an easier time of getting a decent rate. If your loved one has a policy, our team can work with you to determine what it covers and how to submit claims for reimbursement.
