Companionship at Home
Many people don't realise loneliness is an important issue for most clients.
Both illness and old age are some common reasons people think of when considering getting help or find assistance. But providing companionship is an important and neglected aspect of general wellbeing.
Elderly people may become isolated as they grow older. Unfortunately, they may begin to lose friends, neighbors, their spouse or their partner. This inevitably reduces social interaction opportunities and human contact.
Pensioner may live away from their relatives, or family members may simply have responsibilities that don’t allow for frequent visits. Even the happiest and outgoing individual can find this challenging.
Depression and anxiety in the elderly as a result of loneliness are important issues in need of addressing.
Our Companionship at Home carers can become great friends, involved in day-to-day activities. Just knowing the carer is always available to talk to can make all the difference. A Companionship at Home carer can also help organise travel arrangements and even accompany their client when they visit family and friends.
