I contacted Visiting Angels about 7 months ago for a loved one. The gal they send was beyond what we had even imagined! The first morning she was greeted with a mess and acted like she had been there everyday. She cared for the loved one first and every spare second, she was cleaning and organizing the apartment. By now our loved one misses her when she is not there. I was extremely pleased to see this week that Visiting Angels was number one for 2022 best places to work. They treat their employees, how our loved ones are treated by their employer. What a Blessing in todays world. Thank you.

Mom’s caregiver, Ruth Nan of Gresham Visiting Angels, has been like a family member providing loving care. Ruth is truly an angel who deserves many halos. She is with mom 3 hours, 5 days per week. Ruth works holidays and an occasional weekend day without hesitation and is always willing to help with mom’s care as needed. She anticipates mom’s needs and follows through in a gentle, thoughtful and positive manner. She encourages mom to eat and prepares leftovers for her, helps to select menu items for meals, prompts mom to drink water, take her meds, walks with her for exercise, tracks her weight and blood pressure, carefully follows all of the instructions from mom’s doctors, and often attends doctor appointments during her shifts to provide input. Ruth helps with bathing and dressing as needed, reminds mom to use her walker with every step to prevent falls, deals intuitively with dementia- and macular-caused hallucinations, delusions and depression, prays with her, reads to her, and provides personal services to improve mom’s self-esteem. Ruth takes initiative to meet mom’s needs, including taking inventory of supplies and requesting they be ordered, helping to sort through mom’s belongings, and organizing and cleaning to create a better, cleaner, safer environment for mom. Ruth has been caring for mom for 1.5 years. She has the utmost patience and affection and often deals with issues with a quick wit and by redirecting mom’s thoughts. Ruth and the owner and staff of the business are the best partners in caring for mom that my sister and I could ever imagine.

We are using Visiting Angels, Gresham, location. We could not ask for a better Angel, 4 days a week, 3 hours each day. This Angel has reorganised a small studio apartment, a bit cluttered when the Angel shows up, to a warm and organised apartment. She has gone as far as fixing a full set of clothes for 7 days a week for my friend. She exercises and does physical therapy with the client. She has client doing word search and crossword puzzles. She has been more than patient when she returns the next day, and everything is a mess. She patiently listens to the client, settles her down, takes charge, cleaning, laundry, bathing, and once again leaves a nice apartment in 3 hours time. I can’t say enough about our experience.

Four years ago my mother was returning home after heart surgery and months of skill nursing rehabilitation. At 87, I honestly didn’t know if she’d be able to return to her own home and resume her independent living. If so, I was pretty sure it would take some additional assistance. A close friend gave me a heartfelt endorsement of Gresham Visiting Angels, based upon the care and assistance provided to his mother and father. Upon phoning the office and describing the situation, an appointment was scheduled to meet my mother and me at the skilled nursing facility and get to know her and what we were expecting to need from the Angels. We discussed options and created a care plan. Once my mom was discharged and back home, the Angel’s service began. The first Angel was not a good fit, and upon contacting the office that first day, another Angel was assigned. My mom has had her same pair of Angels for the past 4-years. They get her morning started each day and have allowed her to live in her home, now at 91. She has formed strong relationships with each of her two Angels. I’m so grateful to have learned about them from my friend. I have found the team in the office to be extremely responsive. There have been a couple occasions when I have spoken with each of the owners and have found them to be caring, honest, polite and professional. I would recommend Gresham Visiting Angels to anyone in need of the services they provide.
