Visiting Angels
About
Visiting Angels in Medford is a family-owned franchise of the national home care network, serving seniors and disabled adults who want to keep living at home. Caregivers provide non-medical help with meal planning and preparation, errands and shopping, dressing, bathing and grooming, light housekeeping, walking and transfers, and physician visits. Clients choose the days, times and frequency of visits, and care is built around their existing routines rather than asking them to change.
Karen Hurwitz opened the franchise in 2009, bringing more than 20 years of business experience, including time as a flower shop owner, along with a background in elementary and special education. Abby Hurwitz joined the family business as director after working in bank loan servicing and volunteering with the Special Olympics and local senior centers. When matching a caregiver to a client, Karen makes sure everyone is comfortable, knowing the final choice rests with the client or family.
