Viska Homecare and Companion Services is a Maryland OHCQ-licensed home care and skilled nursing agency based in Silver Spring, providing RN-supervised care to older adults, adults with disabilities, and families who need support in the home setting. Every client begins with a Registered Nurse assessment, and care plans are developed based on the client's condition, needs, and goals.
The agency offers specialized support for post-hospital recovery, chronic disease management, medication administration under RN supervision, dementia and Alzheimer's care, respite care, and assistance with daily living. Services include structured routines and cognitive engagement for dementia clients, specialized care for conditions such as diabetes, COPD, Parkinson's disease, and congestive heart failure, as well as ostomy and colostomy care, catheter care, tracheostomy care, and wound care delivered by skilled professionals.
Viska provides structured social engagement and cognitive activities designed to improve quality of life and slow cognitive decline. Additional services include meal preparation and mealtime companionship, transportation and accompaniment to medical appointments and community activities, and purposeful companionship that reduces isolation and supports emotional well-being. All caregivers are background-checked, trained, and supervised to ensure safe, consistent, and personalized support.
The agency's hospital-to-home program begins before the first shift, with the RN reviewing discharge information, briefing the care team, and building a care plan designed to support recovery and stability at home. Respite care provides temporary relief for family caregivers for a few hours, a full day, or several days, with the client receiving the same quality care.
Viska Homecare accepts Private Pay, Long Term Insurance, VA Benefits, Worker's Compensation, and Medicaid Waiver funding. The agency is available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week for urgent care needs.
