Your Questions Answered

Frequently Asked Questions

What does a companionship visit include?

Friendly conversation, activities, light prompts for daily routines, and help staying connected with family or community, tailored to your preferences.

Do caregivers provide medical or personal care during these visits?

No. Companionship is non-medical. If you need personal care, ask about adding home care services like bathing or mobility support.

Can you accompany me to community or faith events?

Yes, when appropriate and approved by family. We can also help with phone or video access if staying home is preferred.

Do you offer memory-friendly activities for dementia?

Yes. We use calm routines, music, reminiscence, and simple, meaningful activities suited to memory care.

Will you give updates to family after visits?

We can provide brief check-ins about mood, participation, appetite prompts, or any concerns noted during the visit.

How many hours should we schedule?

It depends on goals and routines. Many families start with a few hours weekly and adjust as needs change or during times of increased stress.
