Companionship Care at Home
Companionship care is one of our most requested services and provides much-needed support to those that might be feeling lonely or isolated. Having someone pop in regularly for a chat and a cup of tea can make all the difference if you’re finding it difficult to stay socially active. Studies show that human interaction can prevent the detrimental effects loneliness can have on a person’s physical and mental health.
