Angels on Call Homecare Wins Two 2026 Hudson Valley Community Choice Awards: Best Home Healthcare Services and Best Employee Training Program

Hudson Valley, New York, April 16, 2026: Angels on Call Homecare has been named a 2026 Hudson Valley Community Choice Awards winner in two major categories: Best Home Healthcare Services and Best Employee Training Program for its acclaimed Memory Care Angels training model.

The dual recognition highlights growing public and professional recognition that not all homecare is designed for complex conditions, and that specialized, clinically guided care can produce a fundamentally different experience for families navigating Dementia, Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, and other neurological conditions at home.

For families searching online for best homecare agency in New York, Dementia care at home, Parkinson's home care services, live-in Care Professionals in the Hudson Valley, or advanced memory care at home, this recognition signals something important: families are increasingly choosing providers that offer more than basic custodial support. They are seeking structured care systems, specialized training, clinical oversight, and personalized engagement designed to reduce risk, support function, and restore quality of life.

"This recognition reflects the people and philosophy behind our work," said Eric J. Dalton, Vice President of Angels on Call Homecare. "Homecare should not be task-driven and reactive. It should be thoughtful, clinically informed, and deeply personal. We have built a model centered on purpose, dignity, specialized expertise, and meaningful outcomes for families facing some of life's most difficult diagnoses."
