When you are talking about Companion Services, this is usually a less intensive, non-medical type of service.
This often includes activities like taking care of a pet, driving to Doctors’ appointments or any errand for that matter, light household cleaning, preparing meals, grocery shopping, washing dishes or clothes, and watering plants. One of the most underrated services they can provide is simple companionship, whether that is playing cards, going on walks, or simply a warm smile, it can make all the difference. We all have to deal with loneliness or isolation, but these problems can acutely affect us, as we get older. Companion Services can be a great service to alleviate some loneliness, as well as provide some basic help.
