About Us.

Our Mission is to provide our clients unequaled care, enhancing our clients mental and physical well-being; maximizing their independence, safety, and quality of life. 

We know it isn't easy to make the decision to invite a stranger into your home to provide  Home care. That is why we focus on personal service and those intangibles that build trust and l asting relationships -- all on a schedule that meets your needs. You are in charge of everything; you tell us what your schedule will be. It is our job to adjust to that schedule so you remain comfortable in your own home.

Our focus is to provide services and recommend community resources to minimize traumatic and disruptive life changes.  

Our Objectives are to create "Gentle Transitions" for our clients and their loved ones, allowing them to comfortably and safely "Age in Place," and to provide our  loved ones the comfort knowing  that their family members are safe and content.

Our Goals are to

• Minimize traumatic and disruptive life changes.
• Enhance our client's independence, safety, and quality of life.
• Provide our client's loved ones comfort knowing, that their family members are safe and content.
• Provide family caregivers a break or respite.
• Provide assistance to a spouse or significant caregiver when providing needed and necessary care   becomes very difficult.
• Assist a terminally ill loved one under hospice care with personal assistance to provide comfort, companionship and needed support.
• Provide caring companionship, reducing loneliness and isolation.

Sometimes, nursing homes or retirement centers seem to be the only options for care. On the other hand, Visiting Angels Homecare provides services that enable people to continue enjoying the independence of their daily routines and familiar surroundings. We can help  avoid the emotional trauma and distress  associated with leaving their cherished home.

Rochelle Landy is the owner of the Hopkins Visiting Angels Office.  This office serves the entire seven county Minneapolis-St. Paul metropolitan area.  She is a Licensed Social Worker with over thirty years of extensive experience working with seniors as a Nursing Home Social Service Director and as an Assisted Living Housing Manager. Throughout  her career, she became critically aware of the trauma families and their loved ones face when, because of declining health, are faced with moving to a  more restrictive environment. Her mission was to work where she could help seniors  safely achieve as much self-determination and self-reliance as possible  in their familiar surroundings. 

This office of Visiting Angels is  six years old and is located in Hopkins, Minnesota.  Visiting Angels was founded in the 1980's by Jeffrey Johnson, a nursing home Social Service Director in the Baltimore area. He heard families express frustration about the few alternatives other than in the nursing home placement. In the summer of 1991, Jeffrey resigned from his position in the nursing home and started a home care agency. Jeffery's passion has led to over 360 Visiting Angels agencies.
