Live-in vs visiting: matching the model to the need<\/h3>\n

Live-in care is the right answer when someone needs constant presence: severe cognitive impairment, significant mobility limitations, or the inability to be safely left alone. At \u00a31,095\/week as a starting point, it is also a significant cost commitment.<\/p>\n

Visiting care covers the majority of home care needs at a more accessible price point. Visiting Angels provides visiting care from a minimum of one hour, building up to multiple daily visits as needs increase. For families not yet at the point where overnight presence is necessary, visiting care delivers the consistency and relationship of live-in without the cost.<\/p>\n

Local carers vs a rotation model<\/h3>\n

Promedica24 sources carers from Europe, typically operating on a rotation schedule where carers work for a period and then return home. That means the carer who was living with your loved one for the last six weeks may not be the one who arrives next time.<\/p>\n

Visiting Angels recruits locally. Carers live in the community, know the area, and build a natural relationship with clients over time. Before care begins, clients choose their specific Visiting Angel by personality. That same carer visits every time, formally guaranteed.<\/p>\n
