Get The Best Fredericksburg VA 24hr Assisted Living Respite Care for Your Senior More than 65 million Americans provide care for a chronically ill, disabled, or aged family member or friend, and spend an average of 20 hours a week caring for loved ones. This comes at a cost. Family caregivers may find themselves overtaxed, over-stressed, and overwhelmed Visiting Angels Fredericksburg’s new senior care service gives respite to both carers and seniors. For carers the service reduces the risk of burnout including anxiety, anger, and depression. For seniors it allows them to live with independence and dignity in the comfort of their own homes. The ability of modern medicine to deal with a wide range of long term chronic conditions like cancer or heart disease means the number of Americans over 85 years of age is growing rapidly, and by 2030, those over 65 years old will make up 20% of the population. The number of seniors with diseases related to old age such as dementia or Alzheimer's are expected to grow. An estimated 6.2 million Americans age 65 and older are living with Alzheimer's dementia today. This number could grow to 13.8 million by 2060 barring the development of medical breakthroughs According to data from the American Association of Retired Persons (AARP), almost 90% of elderly citizens would prefer to live and die in the comfort of their own homes. This is where the new service launched by Visiting Angels Fredericksburg comes in. It’s new service is focused on providing 24 hour round the clock respite for both carers and their senior loved ones. It can be provided for those dealing with Alzheimer's, dementia, terminal illness, disability, loneliness, the need for personal care, veteran's care, and more. The first part of the service is the provision of round the clock 24hr comfort and security to the senior being cared for and letting seniors receive this care in the familiar surroundings of home. The second part of the service is the provision of relief to carers who can now experience the security of knowing their loved ones are receiving excellent care and companionship. It also reduces the risk of carer burnout, anxiety, anger, and depression. The company states: “No matter the type of senior care we provide, you can count on our commitment to you and your family remaining the same. We will provide top quality care that enables your loved one to maintain their independence and dignity.” A family carer said “I have confidence in them. Once they become fairly experienced, I can leave them here while I go and run errands. It's enabled me to have something of a life. Otherwise, I would have to be here all the time.” Visit https://Visitingangels.com/frede ricksburgva or call 540-373- 6906 for more
