Senior Homeshares is a nationwide online housemate service specifically for older adults. We help you find companionship, live more safely, and ease your finances. Companion care is a type of in-home care service that provides essential assistance to the elderly and disabled adults. Care will typically include a number of ways to make daily living easier and safer for the care recipient. For example, a caregiver might perform errands, such as grocery shopping or picking up medications, on behalf of a senior.
Whether you need someone to manage your senior's health and safety, or simply want visiting time with them, you can find the senior companion you want at Eldercare.com.
Research on social support has shown the tremendous benefits friendship has on our health and well being. We often hear people say, 'It's not the place that matters, it's the people that surround you that make all the difference'. When things seem hard during the autumn of your life, a good friend is what you need.
The concept of having a social companion is not new. It extends far beyond giving you just company. A social companion can assist with senior care when your family or your regular caregiver are not available. They are with you for daily assisted living, can lend an ear when you need someone to talk to or just keep you company whenever you feel alone or unsafe.
Hiring a senior companion can greatly improve the life, health, and well-being of an elderly person. ElderCare.com is the perfect platform for those looking for respite care. Easily search the companions and caregivers in your area and choose the person and service that is right for you.
Have you ever noticed that during your lifetime friends, neighbors or family have either moved away, lost contact with you or worse, they passed away?
For some of us, losing contact with friends, family or neighbors can become more common than we would like. Maybe your children have grown and had children of their own, so they all have busy lives and less time to spend with you. Before you know it, you feel like everyone has moved on in their lives, leaving you behind.
Many of us want a companion in our lives, someone we can talk to, share stories with, or who enjoys the same music, TV shows or movies. You may need someone who will take you to doctor appointments or shop for you and run errands. Someone who is there just for you and makes it all about you.
Our companion caregivers love spending time with the elderly and will engage in conversation with them and listen to their stories. I can't tell you how many caregivers have told me they grew up with their grandmother whom they loved dearly and who inspired them to want to help and support the elderly.
Our caregivers would love to be that special someone who is there for you.
Senior companionship services enhance the quality of life and dignity of Canadians in their homes.
We all need a companion of some sort in our lives; someone we can talk to, share stories with, or who enjoys the same TV shows or movies. However, as we grow older our friends tend to move away, lose contact or worse pass away.
Add more interest to your life!
Let us provide senior companionship services you would enjoy. Whether it's reading a book, someone to walk with or interesting conversation. Our quality caregivers are good listeners, enjoy hearing interesting stories and may be able to share a good story or two of their own!
