What Is Homemaker & Companion Care?

How Homemaker & Companion Care Supports Independence

Remaining at home can be important to many seniors and adults because home provides familiarity, comfort, and established routines. However, everyday household responsibilities and social isolation can sometimes make living at home more difficult.

Homemaker and companion care provides practical assistance without taking away a client's independence. Instead, caregivers can support clients with the activities they need help with while encouraging them to remain involved in their daily routines whenever appropriate.

Our goal is to provide a helping hand while respecting each client's preferences, privacy, dignity, and independence.

Families should also discuss significant mobility or safety concerns with appropriate healthcare professionals to determine whether additional clinical assessment or modifications are needed.

Medication Reminders & Daily Routine Support

Maintaining a regular daily routine can be important for seniors and adults living at home. Depending on the caregiver's role and the client's care plan, caregivers may provide appropriate reminders for medications and other everyday routines.

Medication reminders are different from medication management or clinical administration. Specific medication responsibilities depend on the caregiver's role, applicable requirements, and the established care plan.
