FINAL REQUESTS
An elderly woman from Brooklyn decided to prepare her will and make her final requests.
She told her lawyer she had two final requests.
First, she said she wanted to be cremated, and second, she wanted her ashes scattered over Bloomingdales.
"Bloomingdales!" the lawyer exclaimed, "Why Bloomingdales?"
"Then I'll be sure my daughters visit me twice a week."

We're Delighted to Hear from Families About Our Exceptional Care!
A Review from a Client's Daughter:
"At the beginning, Visiting Angels came to provide transportation for my mother. She was very active going to her gym, shopping or doctor's appointments. Gradually, as the years went on (5 years in total), Visiting Angels was here more and took on more responsibilities such as laundry, light housekeeping, and grocery shopping. They were here every day, every afternoon. Unfortunately, in the last 6 months of her life, my mother had a couple of falls in the house. From that point, we had live-in service. They provided really wonderful care for my mom from the very beginning right up to the end of her life. Her every need was met. Visiting Angels truly was a lifesaver. I can't imagine what we would have done without them."
--Eileen, Hamilton, NJ

Angels Who Soar: Celebrating Our Hardworking Employees
We are so proud of our wonderful, hard-working employees who go beyond the call of duty. Below are reasons our Angels are so special...
Marie M. and Ladie A. are assigned to the same client. Both Angels are eager to fill-in or adjust their work schedules in order to accommodate any schedule tweaks they or our client may request. This helps ensure our client receives continuity of care, and doesn't need to adjust to a new Angel each time one of them is unavailable. We truly appreciate this team's flexibility and cooperation!

COMMUNITY OUTREACH
Each month, Rudy Tervooren (Co-Owner and Executive Director) travels throughout the community visiting referral sources and attending client meetings.

We're passionate to share how our State-certified home care employees can help seniors with all their daily living needs, making it possible for them to continue living at home safely and less expensively than in a facility.

About Our CareVisiting Angels is a New Jersey-licensed, non-medical home care company committed to going well beyond the "industry standard" to provide an exceptional level of security, comfort and peace of mind to our clients and their loved ones. Our "Angels", all certified home health professionals, are ready to provide compassionate and dependable assistance with the activities of everyday living to seniors, the disabled, those recovering from surgery and to those who are simply frail. Our services include such simple tasks as light housekeeping, meal preparation, errands and shopping to more personal tasks such as hygiene assistance, bathing, dressing and grooming. Visiting Angels' in-home care helps make it possible for seniors and other adults to continue to live at home and maintain the independence of their daily routines and familiar surroundings, safely. We truly understand how challenging and alien the entire home care selection process can be...and we are experienced in working with families; with loved ones "resistant" to receiving care; and with third-parties payors (such as insurance companies and the US Dept. of Veterans Affairs) to help insure that the best interests of the family and their loved ones are met. Visiting Angels' services help families spend more mutually-rewarding and meaningful time with their loved ones and also helps provide comfort and peace of mind to those who face the challenge of long-distance caregiving.
