Companion Care
Our heartfelt elderly companion care goes beyond daily tasks — fostering deep connections and enriching the lives of seniors.
At-home companion care can help combat the chronic loneliness and isolation that many seniors experience. A companion caregiver visits a senior’s home for socialization and emotional and physical support.
From participating in hobbies like watching a favorite show or playing a board game to conversing over a meal or a cup of coffee, companion care creates fun and memorable moments in a senior’s life at home. If an older loved one needs a trusted friend to talk to, accompany them to appointments or outings, or participate in their favorite activities, companion care helps fill the gaps in-between family visits.
Our companion caregivers visit seniors for:
- Stimulating conversation and socializing
- Participating in favorite hobbies or activities
- Opening and sorting through mail and email
- Help navigating and interacting with people on social media
Companion care helps keep seniors’ daily lives active and engaging. It allows older loved ones to retain their independence and age in place without experiencing social isolation.
According to the Centers for Disease Control (CDC), isolation and loneliness can pose serious health risks to older adults. Experiencing loneliness long-term can lead to a higher risk of depression, anxiety, dementia, heart disease, stroke, and more.
Having a companion to talk to, turn to, and experience moments with can make a huge difference in a senior’s quality of life. It takes the pressure off of family caregivers when they can’t be with their loved one due to other responsibilities, and empowers seniors to live a more fulfilling day-to-day life.
At A Place At Home, we hire and train kind-hearted companions who are looking to build meaningful connections with seniors. Learn more about our compassionate home health aides, companions, and homemakers on our caregivers page.
