Companionship Care
A friendly face to care , support and keep you company
Companionship care makes elders feel comfortable and satisfied in their own homes. This sort of home care includes a variety of fundamental duties and activities that you or your loved one might find difficult to complete on their own. In other cases, these impediments might lead one to lose their independence. However, with companionship care, you may retain your habits and age in place.
Companionship is one of our most popular services at Universal Resolutions Ltd., providing a wide variety of caring tasks. This makes it a great option for older people who need a little help to stay at home but don’t need professional care
What Exactly Is Companionship Care?
Companionship care is an in-home care service that gives support to you or a loved one.
Care will often involve a variety of solutions to make your everyday life simpler and safer. A carer, for example, may run errands on behalf of a senior, such as grocery shopping or prescription pickup. Caregivers will also plan and cook regular meals, handle minor housekeeping activities, and provide medicine reminders at intervals.
This form of care is also intended to improve overall quality of life. Caregivers participate in preferred hobbies and activities with clients, accompany them to appointments and social trips, and engage in polite conversation with them.
These activities might be a lifeline for seniors who are socially isolated.
Social isolation has been proven to significantly increase the risk of health issues and mortality. Companionship gives seniors who live alone a social connection and regular company, which breaks the cycle of senior isolation.

Who benefits from companionship care?
You or a loved one may be surrounded by friends and family but still feel lonely, or there may be no one around. Whatever the circumstance, one-on-one time provides numerous advantages.
Perhaps you or a friend or relative feels isolated and wishes to develop new connections but lacks the courage to attend a new friendship or hobby group on your own. A companionship care assistant could assist in locating local clubs and then attending them as well.
