Provided by YP.comThe Visiting Angels have been taking care of my 90 year-old grandmother since she suffered a bad fall in October 2008. Granny had been living with us fairly independently until she was hospitalized for a fall. She was discharged from the hospital under the Hospice program, and we thought she would pass away shortly after coming home. I called the Angels in a panic, not knowing how to look after my now-bedridden and possibly dying grandmother, and they rushed in that very day and gave Granny the care and attention she needed. Their caregivers really saved the day, caring for and sitting with Granny while we were at work during the day. They even trained us in bed care so we could keep Granny clean and comfortable while she convalesced. There have been several occasions when Care Team Managers have raced to our house in the middle of the night when they got a call from Lifeline that Granny needed assistance.

The Visiting Angels have been taking care of my 90 year-old grandmother since she suffered a bad fall in October 2008. Granny had been living with us fairly independently until she was hospitalized for a fall. She was discharged from the hospital under the Hospice program, and we thought she would pass away shortly after coming home. I called the Angels in a panic, not knowing how to look after my now-bedridden and possibly dying grandmother, and they rushed in that very day and gave Granny the care and attention she needed. Their caregivers really saved the day, caring for and sitting with Granny while we were at work during the day. They even trained us in bed care so we could keep Granny clean and comfortable while she convalesced. There have been several occasions when Care Team Managers have raced to our house in the middle of the night when they got a call from Lifeline that Granny needed assistance. One day I was grocery shopping and came home to find my grandmother sitting on the floor, and two Visiting Angels employees sitting with her, talking to her and keeping her comfortable. It turns out she had tried to get out of bed on her own and had fallen and pressed her LifeLine button. When LifeLine couldn't reach me (I don't have a cell phone), the called the Angels, and my Granny's favorite caregiver and Care Team Manager rushed over to our house to make sure she was OK and to sit with her until I returned. You can only imagine my relief when I found that Granny had not been alone and frightened all this time, she instead had a nice visit with her favorite Angels. I truly believe that the Angels have saved my Granny's life. We expected her to pass away shortly after she came home, but with the care and attention of the Angels, she rallied. The quality of her life now is far better than it had been for the past several years. She loves her Angels, they take wonderful care of her, and are great companions who give her the one-on-one personal attention that so many of our elderly never receive. There are Angels among us, I know first-hand. « Hide
