SENIOR RETIREMENT HOME CARE
You wish you could see your loved one more often. Your loved one is lonely and you feel some Companionship outside the regular routine of the Seniors Home is just what your loved one needs.
A Personal Companion who will visit your loved one regularly. Your lifestyle and career demands do not afford you the free time to provide that commitment at this time.
Your loved one will benefit from increased interaction and stimulation, and you will benefit from the peace of mind knowing that your loved one has a regular visitor in addition to your visits.
Personal Companions provide a whole range of services within Senior Retirement homes.
- Taking your loved one on personal outings— shopping malls, coffee shops, the park, etc
- Attending events or activities within the home—people are sometimes hesitant to attend events on their own; having a confident friend alongside them makes it more inviting
- Creating the opportunity to leave a secure unit—if your loved one lives on a secure dementia unit, the ward is locked to prevent those who wander from leaving. This prevents residents on that ward from being able to walk through the building and attend activities on other floors. A Personal Companion will safely accompany the client off that ward for a change of scenery.
- Reading aloud, playing cards, board games, puzzles, etc
- Personal pampering—painting fingernails, combing hair, applying make-up
- Reflect on photo albums and pictures—reminiscing and encouraging fond memories, presenting your loved one a chance to share those memories
- The Companionship choices are endless. We will do whatever we can to make your loved one's time more meaningful and enjoyable
