Elder Care’s Companions provide peace-of-mind to families by helping to ensure that loved ones are safe and secure when the family is unavailable due to proximity, work hours or for a variety of reasons. Our Companions act as the house manager for seniors living independently and maintain a supportive role of advocacy while providing social interaction, supervision and monitoring for moderately- to high-functioning senior adults.

What is Brighter Living and In-Home Care?      

Elder Care offers a range of customized services to care for seniors living at home. In-Home is part of a grant program which allows our Caregivers to provide up to 2 hours of chores in the house for seniors living on a low income.  

Brighter Living is a fee-based service in which our Caregivers provide 2 hours to 24 hour care in the home. Services include:

• House management
• House keeping
• Laundry and ironing
• Meal planning and preparation
• Transportation (including to and from local doctor appointments, salon, weekly events, etc.)
• Shopping and errand assistance
• Social stimulation including reading, playing cards and board games
• Companionship and interaction
• Watering plants
• Laying out clothing for the next day
• And more

Because each person is unique, their level of care will be tailored to fit their needs.
