Visiting Angels – Columbus West

Visiting Angels Columbus West is a locally owned franchise office (owners Ariauna and Jacob Ellzey) that has served the area for over 17 years. Its respite page describes temporary care while a family caregiver is away (vacations, emergencies, recovery from surgery) and regular part-time respite so caregivers can attend appointments or rest. Caregivers are available 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, including overnight, weekends and holidays, and the site says its dementia training program was created with the Alzheimer's Foundation of America. Families in reviews describe quick starts, consistent caregivers and good companionship; one reviewer noted past problems with office communication about caregiver absences.

Caregivers help with bathing and dressing, toileting, transfers, walking and fall prevention, meal preparation, light housekeeping, laundry, medication reminders, errands and transportation to appointments. The site describes Alzheimer's and dementia care including wandering prevention, with a memory care coordinator who visits the home. End-of-life and palliative support are also listed, and care is available day, evening, overnight and around the clock.

The office is at 41 Croswell Rd 2nd FL, Columbus, OH 43214. The site lists Columbus, Dublin, Upper Arlington, Bexley, Grandview Heights and surrounding communities. Care starts with a free in-home consultation and safety assessment, followed by a personalized care plan and caregiver match; payment options are not detailed on the pages we checked.
