Companion Care

friendly companion Care Services for Seniors

Staying active and socially engaged is critical for seniors’ health and well-being. And as much as we love spending time with our loved ones, most of us can’t be there as often as we’d like to provide that needed companionship. Fortunately, Home Helpers of Wheaton and Naperville offers companion care services to help.

WHAT ARE COMPANION CARE SERVICES?

For many older loved ones, day-to-day life can feel lonely or isolating, and these feelings can often lead to depression or other illnesses. Companion care services provide senior loved ones with a friendly face to chat with each day to help stave off feelings of loneliness.

However, companion care services for seniors can offer older loved ones much more than someone to talk to. Home Helpers offers in-home companion care services that can extend well beyond the day-to-day medical and essential housekeeping tasks: we offer in-home care to help fill in the gaps for a richer, more fulfilling life for your loved one, including:

  • Talking, listening, and sharing experiences
  • Playing games and cards
  • Reading assistance
  • Doing puzzles
  • Accompaniment to and from check-ups, errands, social events, etc.
  • Sorting and organizing mail
  • Assistance in connecting with friends and family through social media (Skype, Facebook, etc.)

WHO CAN BENEFIT FROM COMPANION CARE SERVICES FOR SENIORS?

Our in-home companion care services can benefit any older adults who wish to remain socially active and independent for as long as possible, but are ideal for those who:

  • Live alone
  • Live at a distance from family and friends
  • Have experienced the death of a spouse or loved one
  • Have mobility issues that make it hard to get out of the house for social activities
  • Wanting to be more active in their community
  • Need assistance with daily activities
  • Need or want support with exercise
  • Have family caregivers who need respite care
  • And more
