Companion Care is a buddy support system to provide companionship to those seeking companionship for activities, errands, event gatherings and more. Our companionship buddy system can be combined with assistance with daily living activities such as hyginece care and etc.

​

Before you begin receiving care, we’ll ask a lot of questions, such as:

 

What does your loved one like to do? What are his or her interests? What foods does he or she like to eat? Is your parent outgoing or more reserved?

Based on what you tell us, we’ll match your loved one with the right home health aide whose daily responsibilities will include one-on-one companionship and doing things like:

​

• Going for walks

• Doing crossword puzzles

• Creating art

• Baking

• Being an attentive listener and encouraging your loved one to talk

• Watching for behavior changes that signal sadness, confusion, or memory loss

​

We always do our best to match you with a compatible caregiver. Your aide has the specialized knowledge to help monitor for changes in behavior and in physical health that may indicate additional services or care are warranted.

​

Personal Care

​

When you need help with personal care, including bathing and grooming, light housekeeping, and grocery shopping, our home health aides will work closely with you, your loved one, and your medical team to deliver the right care.

 

Meals and Cooking

​

Home health aides can ensure your loved one eats a healthy diet that meets specific dietary restrictions or requirements. Aides will do food shopping, prepare meals, and handle kitchen clean-up, and can assist with feeding.

​

Bathing and Grooming

​

Illness or injury can turn even the simplest task—like combing your hair—into a difficult chore. Home health aides can assist individuals who are unable to perform tasks of everyday hygiene and personal grooming, including help with bathing, shaving, oral hygiene, and dressing.

​

Light Housekeeping and Laundry

​

Keeping up with household tasks can be challenging as health declines. Home health aides can help your loved one maintain a clean and safe environment by assisting with chores related to care, such as making beds, cleaning the bathroom after grooming, and assisting with your loved one’s laundry.

​

Shopping and Errands

​

If you or a loved one have trouble walking without assistance or shouldn’t be driving, home health aides can run errands or take care of shopping for you. We can also work to set up store accounts with local retailers so you don’t have to worry about having cash on hand when your aide shops for you.

​

Appointment Companion

​

Home health aides can ensure your loved one arrives safely and on time to a destination, and gets back home again. Appointment companions (sometimes called ambulatory escorts) are available for outings such as:

• Medical and dental appointments

• Same-day surgical procedure or hospital discharge that requires an escort

• Social events, such as trips to the theater or weddings and parties

 

Respite Care

​

Family caregivers may need time away, either to attend an important event like a wedding or graduation, or simply to recharge. Yet it can be difficult to find the right person to care for your loved one—someone responsible, with the skills and knowledge to care for their medical needs and the sensitivity to treat them with respect and compassion.

Whether you need respite care services for a few hours or for several days, Sensitive Homecare Agency can provide you with the services you need to ensure your loved one’s safety and dignity.
