Angels on Call Homecare: A Leader in Specialized Care
Angels on Call Homecare has recently been distinguished as the
Best Home Health Care Service in the Hudson Valley through the esteemed Community Choice Awards. This accolade highlights the organization’s robust model dedicated to the specialized care of patients suffering from
dementia and
Parkinson's disease. As a prominent entity in one of New York's largest healthcare markets, this recognition signifies not just community trust, but also a noteworthy transformation in their service delivery structure.
In recent years, especially with challenges surfacing during the COVID-19 pandemic, the organization flipped the script on traditional home health care. Instead of merely focusing on daily living activities, executives emphasized on a clinically structured system that is driven by precise, measurable outcomes. This strategic evolution resulted in the development of innovative frameworks and advanced training programs, all geared towards achieving specific clinical objectives.
One of the standout credentials that Angels on Call holds is being the
first home care agency in the United States accredited in
Certified in Parkinson's Disease Care (CPDC™). Furthermore, they are recognized as one of the first home care providers nationwide—and the very first in New York—to achieve
Dementia Excellence accreditation. This dual accreditation is unparalleled in the U.S., reinforcing Angels on Call’s position as a leader in both dementia and Parkinson's care.
Their unique approach comprises various specialized programs such as
Memory Care Angels,
Neuro-Mobility Angels, and
Guardian Angel clinical consultations. These initiatives prioritize thorough life-history evaluations and tailored activation planning, ensuring that clients receive focused strategies for preserving mobility, medication management, and nutrition alignment, all under the expert oversight of registered nurses.
Unlike traditional agencies, Angels on Call gauges their effectiveness through
improved independence,
reduced fall rates,
behavioral stability, and
enhanced family confidence, rather than just hours of care provided. Eric J. Dalton, Vice President, expressed that this recognition is a testament to their rigorous reform efforts implemented over several years, emphasizing a shift from merely transactional caregiving to one rooted in clinical integrity and evidence.
To achieve this transformative change, the organization undertook meticulous financial and operational planning. Robert Dalton, CEO, elaborated, stating, “Transforming from traditional homecare to a specialized, outcome-driven model required careful financial planning and operational recalibration. Excellence in dementia and Parkinson's care cannot exist without operational stability.”
This award reflects the successful execution of a care model designed for long-term impact, recognizing Angels on Call as more than just a service provider; it is a beacon of innovation in specialized health care across the Hudson Valley.
As families grapple with cognitive and neurological challenges, Angels on Call signifies commitment through specialized structure, measurable strategy, and clinical precision, ultimately striving for dignity and quality in patient care.
