Visiting Angels of Athens is an amazing caregiving company to work with. We needed care provided for a loved one with very little notice and the team was able to fulfill our needs immediately. They have great communication, wonderful caregivers and went above and beyond to make sure that our experience was nothing but positive.

The Visiting Angels were absolutely wonderful, helping my wife with bathing and helping her with her makeup and hair. Everyone we met were kind, professional, and so empathetic. They catered to her and made her smile! I would highly recommend them to anyone seeking home care. They were awesome!

The Oconee County Visiting Angels is a wonderful group to work with. I highly recommend them for your families needs with your love one. Everything we requested they were willing to help with my mother in-law from driving her to all her appointments, fixing her meals, & giving her baths. Tomi was a huge blessing!

Highly recommend Visiting Angels. We had to contact them last minute to arrange someone to sit with a family member overnight and they delivered, not once but twice! Thanks to Tomi we had peace of mind for our loved one. Jeff and his team were very professional and friendly. We will definitely use them again if the need arises.

When you hire someone to keep your loved one safe, engaged, and comfortable, you should hire an agency who employees caregivers who treat your loved ones like a member of their own family. Visiting Angels employs compassionate, detail-oriented, attentive, and energetic caregivers. One of the biggest reasons we have been so satisfied with Visiting Angels is that they are excellent communicators and if you need any extra hours or an extra shift then they will get right back to you and they will do their best to accommodate your schedule. When the caregivers arrive, they are ready to work: They are dressed professionally, they have clean shoes, they are well mannered, they are punctual, and they ask good questions to verify that they have all of the correct information that they need for the day. Visiting Angels enjoy their interactions with your loved ones and their shifts go by very quickly because your loved ones have such an enjoyable experience with them. Our family is so grateful for Visiting Angels because of the feeling of relief we feel that we can rest assured that a loved ones are taking care of safely.
