The Benefits of Investing in Companion Care
There are many benefits of companionship care, especially for those seniors who live alone or are experiencing loneliness. Outside of being able to help with everyday activities like transportation or errands, a companion can provide immeasurable emotional support via social interaction, conversation and active listening during difficult times. These interactions can go a long way towards helping overcome feelings of isolation and can even lower the risk of loved ones developing depression or anxiety. Plus, for many older adults, having a companion caregiver can relieve the burden on family caregivers and allow them to continue working or take a much-needed break. Perhaps most important, though, companion caregivers can provide safety supervision and help seniors stay independent, which makes them an invaluable resource for both seniors and their families.
