What is
companionship care?
Companionship care is a type of home care service that provides emotional support and friendship. A companion can spend as much or as little time with you as you’d like, helping you to remain independent and enjoy the company of someone who will become a trusted friend over time.
Your companion can help with:
General companionship
Your companion is there to provide friendly conversation & regular social visits.
Getting out and about
Whether it’s helping with travel arrangements or joining you on a day out.
Keeping up your hobbies
From book clubs to favourite games, you can keep doing what you love.
Household help
Support with light daily household tasks and meal preparation.
Running errands
Like popping to the shops or attending appointments with you.
Confidence boost
Supporting confidence and independence in and out of your home.
Why choose
companionship care?
Human connection is vital to living a fulfilling and healthy life. As we get older, it’s natural for there to be changes in life that result in fewer social connections. Whether you or your loved one are facing a smaller circle of people to connect with on a regular basis or struggling to stay socially active, companion care can help you stay connected.
Loneliness can be just as harmful as physical illness. Companionship care helps fight isolation, lifts mood and gives families peace of mind knowing their loved one is regularly seen, heard and cared for.
