What is Companionship Care?
Companionship care focuses on providing emotional support, friendship, and social interaction to individuals who may be feeling isolated. Unlike personal care, which primarily assists with physical needs such as bathing and dressing, companionship care is centered around improving mental well-being and quality of life.
Our companionship carers offer more than just assistance—they become trusted companions, engaging in meaningful conversations, participating in activities, and providing the warmth of human connection.
Whether it’s reminiscing about fond memories, enjoying a walk in the park, or simply sharing a meal, our carers ensure your loved one feels valued and heard.
