When people are disabled, they can lack the opportunities for social interactions, which continue to be a basic necessity of life. Being alone can greatly affect a person’s quality of life and mental health. Companionship care focuses on the need for social interactions. Some of the things included in this service are as follows:

• Accompaniment on errands or to doctor appointments
• Assistance with grocery shopping
• Walking to get fresh air and exercise
• Playing games
• Correspondence, reading, and conversations

Respite care is meant to assist the family caregivers. Taking care of your loved ones can sometimes be both physically, mentally and emotionally exhausting. Respite care provides non-medical care during the absence of the family caregiver. It can enable you to leave your caregiver roll for an hour or two to go shopping, have lunch with a friend or go to church, among other things. With the assistance of our caregivers, you will get some much-needed free time to rest, relax, and refocus in order to enhance your quality of life.

Many things affect appetite and nutrition. Illness, cognitive impairment, or emotional states can affect whether a person is eating properly. Proper nutrition is important for physical and mental health.

Our caregivers can help with planning, shopping, preparing and cooking meals. Even just being there so a person isn’t eating alone, can be a critical element in a person’s life.
