Angels Instead is a Texas HHS licensed Home Health Agency. When the plan of care calls for it, a licensed nurse visits at home for assessments, medication administration, wound checks and post-hospital monitoring, alongside the non-medical caregivers who handle the rest of the day.
Discharges happen on short notice. When it is urgent, all four steps happen the same day.
Skilled care from licensed nurses when the plan of care calls for it, and non-medical care every other hour of the day.
Most families need a few nursing visits and many hours of daily help. Because we are licensed for both, one agency covers it.
Short, ordered visits by a licensed nurse: assessments, medication administration, wound checks, teaching the family what to watch for.
The hours between nursing visits: personal care, meals, mobility help, companionship and supervision. This is most of what we do.
A caregiver from the day of discharge, a nurse when ordered, and a plan to avoid the readmission.
Shifts are a minimum of 4 hours. We tell you honestly what we can staff and when.

Where to startHome health care is skilled, medical care at home, usually ordered by a physician and delivered by a licensed nurse. Home care is non-medical help with daily living: bathing, meals, mobility, companionship and supervision. Angels Instead is licensed by Texas HHS as a Home Health Agency and provides both, so one agency and one care plan can cover a recovery.

Angels Instead has been instrumental bringing peace of mind to my family by providing needed care to my wife. When last minute changes occurred they were quick to make the necessary changes. The quality of the caregivers is impressive. I am pleased to recommend Angels Instead to anyone who is in need of professional help.
Angels Instead provided wonderful, compassionate home care. The caregivers were kind, dependable, and truly cared about our loved one. We felt comfortable knowing they were in good hands. Highly recommend!
My experience with Angels Instead was awesome! They took care of my Grandma who has dementia. They sent us a consistent caregiver, Julie, who was fantastic. She always made it on time and she treated my grandma with compassion and respect. She accompanied her to Dr. appointments and played with her piano. She also did daily exercises with her and always kept the house tidy and clean! The agency follows up with us daily after each shift and makes sure all went well. I recommend them to every family who is looking for home care! By the way, they had a family portal that kept all our family up to date on everything my Grandma is doing! No surprises on invoices and their rates are affordable compared to what other agencies quoted us.
Our family is endlessly grateful for Angels Instead, especially for Luisa, the CNA who cared for my grandmother during her final months. We truly believe that when we reached out to Angels Instead, God sent us an actual angel. Luisa cared for my grandma with a level of love, patience, and compassion that went far beyond anything we expected. She treated her with dignity, tenderness, and genuine affection every single day. Her presence also brought tremendous comfort to my mom, who felt supported, guided, and never alone in the process of caring for her own mother. Losing my grandma has been incredibly difficult, but knowing she was surrounded by such compassionate care brings us so much peace. I cannot thank Angels Instead, especially Luisa and Tammy, enough. If you are looking for a home care agency that treats your loved one like family, this is the place. We will forever be grateful.
I have worked with Angels Instead for many months and they are very responsive in assuring there is always a caregiver on site. This is very important in caring for my bedridden mother.
Good, compassionate care.
