Visiting Angels Oxford is a home care provider Oxford families can rely on — led by local entrepreneur Parag Rabheru. Parag brings personal experience of caring for a loved one at home. He also brings over 20 years in hospitality and a deep commitment to the Oxford community. Furthermore, having witnessed the impact the pandemic had on the care sector, he is determined to build something better. His goal is a care business that truly supports both clients and carers alike.
From Hospitality to Home Care in Oxford
Parag’s journey to leading Visiting Angels Oxford began at home. In fact, together with his family, he provided much of the care for his father before he passed away. This experience gave him a first-hand understanding of the daily challenges carers and those who need support face every day. As a result, when the opportunity to lead Visiting Angels Oxford arose, he did not hesitate.
With 20 years in hospitality, Parag built a reputation for putting people first — clients and staff in equal measure. Moreover, his passion for creating happy, motivated teams now shapes his approach as a home care business leader. Consequently, he stepped away from his previous career to commit fully to raising the standard of care in Oxfordshire.
What Makes Visiting Angels Oxford Different
Visiting Angels Oxford takes a carer-centric approach that sets it apart from other providers. Carers receive financial rewards, career development opportunities, and genuine wellbeing support. In addition, the business operates a minimum one-hour visit policy. This means clients receive meaningful, unhurried care rather than rushed call-outs.
Parag believes that great care starts with great carers. Therefore, Visiting Angels Oxford works hard to ensure its team feels valued, respected, and supported. Indeed, this in turn allows carers to give their very best to every client they visit.
In Parag’s Own Words
Parag explains what drives him:
“I want to develop and nurture a business that can give back to the community that I am a part of,” explained Parag. “I couldn’t turn down the opportunity to take over Visiting Angels, as it’s a care provider that truly does adopt care within its entire ethos and mission – it’s not just about making money. And having experienced the difficulties local care providers face having dealt with many when my father was in need, I hope we can become a go-to service for families to trust. I’m now in a position to offer exceptional care to others. We’re a solution, not just for those in need, but for those who don’t have the time or skills to support their loved ones.”
On supporting his care team, Parag adds:
“Visiting Angels has the freedom and flexibility to truly tailor services to clients in need and give them a service they deserve,” added Parag. “Care providers are very stretched, and people often receive a below-standard service because of that. I understand people management and the issues care staff face. It’s my responsibility to be a brilliant employer for carers who are incredibly dedicated professionals. They deserve an equally dedicated company that cares for them just as much as they care for clients.”
