What is Companion Care?

This focus on interaction helps to combat loneliness and reduce feelings of isolation.

How does companion care differ from personal care or home health care?
Companion care is strictly non-medical and focuses on companionship and household support. It does not include hands-on assistance with Activities of Daily Living (ADLs) like bathing, dressing, or transferring. Personal care includes those hands-on physical tasks, while home health care is provided by a licensed nurse or therapist for medical tasks. Our companion care is an ideal solution for those who primarily need social support and help with light duties.
Who can benefit most from companion care?
Companion care is best suited for seniors or adults who are generally independent and do not require extensive physical assistance, but who:
Live alone and are at risk for loneliness or social isolation.
Could benefit from a consistent presence to prevent falls and ensure home safety.
Need assistance with errands, light cleaning, or meal preparation to maintain their independent lifestyle.
Have family caregivers who need scheduled time off (respite care).
