Companion Care
Companion care is non-medical care, supervision and socialization provided to a person age 18 or older
Catering and Caring is what we do
Overview
Companion care is a form of home care offering non-medical services to older adults or people with disabilities. Companion care differs from personal care in that personal care aides (also known as home health aides) may provide the same services as companion care but also help with tasks such as bathing, dressing, and medication management, depending on specific state regulations.

Benefits
The goal of companion care is primarily emotional support and socialization, although companions may help older adults with a variety of tasks. In fact, studies have shown that seniors who maintain their social connections are healthier and happier – and experience less chronic illness, less anxiety and depression, better cognitive health, and superior mobility. For seniors, companion care means never having to feel like you’re all alone

The Companion
Companion care may be provided on a formal or informal basis. Some older adults have friends who stop by periodically for a friendly visit and help them manage the household tasks.
Companions typically make regular visits, which may vary in frequency depending on the care recipient’s unique needs. Usually, companions visit at least weekly, while some may visit two to three times per week or even daily to help older adults prepare meals, take care of laundry, and other tasks. Schedules may also vary depending on appointments. If an older adult has an appointment scheduled outside of typical visit hours, companions will often adjust their schedules to accommodate these needs or make arrangements for other transportation.
Companions provide a variety of services that makes life more manageable for older adults, but companionship itself is perhaps the most important, particularly for seniors who live alone and find it difficult to get out of the house. Older adults living independently often experience loneliness and isolation, and companions engage in conversation, take walks with their care recipients, and play games like card games or board games, and simply provide a listening ear and someone to talk to.
Older adults and people with disabilities may also struggle with mobility and other challenges that make carrying out everyday tasks like washing dishes and laundry difficult. By taking care of tasks like light housekeeping, companions alleviate a tremendous burden from their care recipients, resulting in greater quality of life.
