Companionship Care FAQ

Common questions about our companionship services

How is companionship care different from regular care?

Companionship care focuses primarily on emotional support, social engagement, and mental stimulation rather than physical care tasks. While companions may help with light tasks, their main role is to provide meaningful social interaction, friendship, and engagement in activities you enjoy.

Can I choose my companion?

Absolutely! Our matching process includes meeting potential companions so you can choose who you feel most comfortable with. We match based on shared interests, personality compatibility, and your specific preferences. You're always in control of who visits your home.

What activities can we do together?

Activities are tailored to your interests! This can include conversation, games, reading, crafts, gardening, cooking, watching films, listening to music, going for walks, visiting local attractions, attending community events, or simply sharing a cup of tea and chatting. We create a personalized activity plan based on what brings you joy.

How often do companions visit?

Visits can be arranged as often as you like - from once a week to several times a week, or even daily. Visit durations typically range from 2-4 hours, but can be adjusted based on your needs. We offer flexible scheduling to fit your lifestyle.
