Reach out to us today to learn more about our services.


Ask Others

To help start your search, asking for recommendations from others is a great way to get your bearings in the world of at-home healthcare. How friends, family, or even neighbors have experienced different providers can be a pretty good representation of the services you will receive should you decide to work with a specific provider. If you do not know where to start looking, this is the perfect way to begin your search! You can also reach out to us today to learn more about our services and whether or not we can help you with your home care assistance needs.


Find One That Meets Your Needs

It’s important to determine the extent and particularity of your needs. For instance, is the person in need of healthcare suffering from Alzheimer’s? Physical disabilities? Or just needs help with making quality food every day? Different home healthcare agencies often have different specialties. At Angels on Call, we specialize in a wide range of services from Alzheimer’s care to respite care and nutrition help. If you are looking for quality, at-home care, reach out to us today!


Check For Staff Qualifications

No matter the extent or severity of your in-home healthcare needs, you want to hire a company with caregivers you can trust. There is a wide range of qualifications to look for from private organizations to public, governmental certifications. A good in-home healthcare agency will likely have both — revealing that they are not only trusted by the government to do great work, but by a wide range of other organizations. At Angels on Call, we are proud to have been awarded the Best Senior Care in New York for three years running and are a New York State Department of Health licensed healthcare agency. We are committed to providing some of the best home healthcare in the state.


Make Sure to Watch Satisfaction

Once you have selected a home healthcare agency, it’s important to make sure that they really deliver the services they say they will. Whether it’s making meals, helping with medicine delivery, or just being a great caregiver, it’s important that you get the care you or a loved one deserves. If, for some reason, the agency you choose is failing to perform quality work, you can always bring it up with them or change providers.
