What is Companion Care?
Companion care is a personal care service where an individual comes into the home to help take care of a family member’s needs. Our companion care agency provides placements in ways that best serve the family.
Types of Companionship Placements
Part-time companion: Predetermined schedules in which they provide companionship based on the individual’s needs. Often a part-time companion is there to perform a certain level of support and take care of a daily or weekly agenda.
Full-Time companion: Maintains a dedicated commitment to the family member in need of companionship. Often a full-time companion is there to take care of a family member when other family members are at work or away.
Live-in Companion: On-call at all hours to make sure the family member is safe and has what they need. This type of companionship is common when family does not live in the area.
The Benefits of Having a Companion
We can remove stress from the loved one and family by placing the right companion within the estate. The most important benefit is the safety of the individual for their physical, mental, and emotional health.
Companionship Benefits For The Individual
There is a lot of relief in having someone to talk to. Someone who can make your day more enjoyable and handle many of the responsibilities that overwhelm you.
A companion isn’t just for seniors in need of someone to monitor their medical care daily. A companion is for anyone who wants to feel less alone and have help when they need it.
Companionship home care can be helpful for those responsibilities that are just outside of your reach or take too much out of you. When you pair this with the social interaction you get from a companion, it becomes a worthwhile investment.
Companionship Benefits For the Family
Handing over the responsibility of a loved one to a person outside of the family, but it can better serve the family member in need. When you find a trustworthy companion to keep your loved one safe, it makes life easier for everyone.
Having a companion is less expensive than a nursing facility and keeps your loved one in the home they feel most comfortable in. Being at home is a relief to everyone involved.
By having a companion, your family member can keep doing the things they enjoy while having emergency care available if an unfortunate event occurs. Knowing that they’ve taken their medications and kept their appointments lets you continue with the responsibilities of your family.
Knowing that your family member is engaged in social activities and normal daily living brings comfort that they can continue enjoying each day.
As your companion care agency, we will be sure that your placement provides these wonderful benefits.
The Role of a Companion
The role of a companion is to make the family member’s life more enjoyable. Whether it’s the exhaustive to-do list or overcoming the quietness of a house, the companion makes certain that day’s go as planned. As well as making sure that they enjoy the days along the way.
Keep the House Clean and Maintained
A companion will perform light cleaning duties that help to provide a safe and sanitary living space for the family member. This includes housekeeping tasks such as changing bed linens, washing dishes, doing laundry, and general house cleaning.
Healthy Meal Preparation
The companion creates meals that adhere to a loved one’s dietary guidelines. They will follow any dietary restrictions and provide delicious tasting meals.
Provide The Nurturing They Need
Compassion is at the center of a private companion. Our candidates have a friendly professional approach to companionship so that the family member feels comfortable with who they will spend time with.
Trained in Health Supervision
One of the key roles of a companion is making sure they’ve taken their medication and followed the doctor’s instructions. They will communicate with the family and the doctor to make sure everything is going as it should and the medication is being administered correctly.
Scheduling Appointments
A companion can act as a personal assistant by scheduling and keeping their medical, beauty, and social appointments. They can also help with family travel to see their loved one.
Personal chauffeur
The companion can assist by driving the family member to and from appointments. This way, your loved one can get out and continue doing the things they enjoy while being kept safe throughout the experience.
Running Errands
The companion can handle any errands that need to be taken care of.
Emergency Response
Sometimes, the companion will be available 24-hours a day for any emergency response. They are on-call and responsive to any phone calls from the family or alerts from the household. The companion will help provide any necessary information to medical responders and provide any necessary support.
