Elderly Companion Care

Fact is, we all need someone. Which is why Friends of the Family Home Health Care takes Elderly Companion Care very seriously.

When you are talking about Companion Care vs Personal Care in the world of Family Home Health Care, this is usually a less intensive, non-medical type service. This often includes activities like driving to Doctor appointments or any errand for that matter, light household cleaning, preparing meals, going grocery shopping, washing dishes or clothes, taking care of a pet and watering plants.

Elderly Companionship

One of the most underrated services we provide is simple elderly companionship, whether that is playing cards, going on walks or simply a warm smile, it can make all the difference. Companion Care can be a great tool to alleviate some loneliness.

As we grow older, our friends can begin to pass away or even a spouse. Your children are no longer in the home and sometimes do not live near you. Taking a couple hours off work to run a parent to a doctor’s appointment can sometimes be crucial to their job. You say you don’t want to be a burden, but the fact is, you need someone…and not just to help with daily chores and activities. You realize how much you miss just having another body near. Just having someone to talk to, someone to enjoy a meal with, someone to laugh with or watch TV with, all of these things can mean a world of difference to those who live alone.
