Social isolation is a growing concern nationwide, and, for many families living far away from loved ones, it can be very difficult to help an older parent, family member or friend living on their own.
A health condition or increasingly limited mobility can increase isolation for elderly people, or maybe there just aren’t as many friends around to spend time with as there once were who are able to offer daily companionship care.
Loneliness can have a significant impact on mental health and wellbeing, which in turn can delay recovery from illness and injury.
Companionship for elderly care provides social interaction from a friendly face whenever needed and helps people to take back control of their lives, re-enabling their involvement in social events and activities.
As we get older, life starts to slow down. Here at Essential care we understand that sometimes it can be difficult to plan social activities around your busy schedule. If it’s for yourself or perhaps you have ageing family members nearby, or across the country, it can help just knowing that there is a friendly, caring companion who visits regularly. Companion care is one of our most requested services. When one of our Essential Care care assistants provides companionship care, they become a trusted companion who can keep you or your loved one socially engaged in their own home, and also accompany you or them on visits with friends, family, and to other social events. The aim of our companionship services is to ensure that you or your loved ones can lead happy, healthy and stimulating lives in the comfort of their own home or residence.
