What exactly is companion care? Companion care is assistance for your loved ones who wants to remain independent in their own homes but may require some additional non-medical assistance. Companion care services can benefit the elderly and those with illnesses or disabilities.

Companionship can be many things, including just like the name says, companionship. That means simply spending time with someone, getting to know them, engaging in conversation, and engaging with them in activities or hobbies that they enjoy. It could mean going on outings to a client’s favorite coffee shop, spending an afternoon in the park, going shopping, going for a walk around the neighborhood, or whatever else they enjoy doing.

At Everyday Helper we also provide services through companion care such as:

-Medication management and reminders

-transportation to doctor appointments, grocery stores, etc

-Assistance in planning and scheduling appointments

-Assistance with meal preparation

-Assistance with common household chores and yard work

-Assistance with everyday tasks

Our goal at Everyday Helper is to provide a wide variety of services to keep your loved ones living in their own homes longer. Through everyday assistance and social interaction, we are able to assist your loved one in maintaining their quality of life longer.

Companion care is the service we provide that I am most passionate about. In fact, this was the first service that I offered through Everyday Helper. My own life experiences with my loved ones have shown me that our community needs more services like this. There are so many seniors and people living with illnesses or disabilities in our area that would be able to remain in their own homes longer through assistance in services like this. And that’s my mission with Everyday Helper.
