Some may say that the ability to remain in the comfort of their own homes for as long as possible is the most important thing for seniors as they age. Comfort Keepers® Companion Care in Dunkirk, MD, and the surrounding areas can assist in making this a reality. Our compassionate caregivers receive extensive training in our certified Interactive Caregiving approach for senior care.

What is Companion Care?

Companion care, often known as companionship, provides emotional support, friendship, and socialization throughout your senior loved one's day to help promote a strong bond between them and their caregiver. Your loved one might find having a companion by their side to make their days much easier by assisting with chores around the home or other areas where they may need extra assistance completing a task. Typical home companion care activities include:

• Conversations about your loved one's interests help promote mental stimulation, playing card games or listening and dancing to music.
• Promote a healthy meal plan weekly to ensure your loved one has a favorite breakfast, lunch, and dinner meal. 
• Light activity, such as walking or spending time outside.
• Washing and folding laundry, as well as providing general housekeeping. 
• Shop at your loved one's favorite grocery stores and run errands for them that they might not be able to complete anymore alone.

Companion Care Services

Nutrition and Meal Prep

Our caregivers can help with grocery shopping and meal preparation and support physician-recommended nutrition and dietary plans. Diet significantly impacts the overall well-being of your loved one and reduces the chance of several common health disorders, such as heart disease and diabetes. Whether someone is looking for support with a specific diet or companionship in the kitchen, our caregivers can provide the assistance required for wholesome at-home meals. 

Conversation and Companionship

According to studies, seniors who remain socially involved have a higher quality of life than their solitary peers. They are also less likely to acquire depression and overall cognitive decline over time. Our caregivers provide seniors with conversations, mealtime company, and companionship during their favorite activities to make everyday tasks much more enjoyable to complete, especially with a senior caregiver by their side! 

Laundry and Light Housekeeping

Our caregivers can handle all laundry needs at home or at a nearby laundromat. Washing, drying, ironing, and putting clean clothes away are services your loved one can use. Vacuuming, dusting, sweeping, mopping, cleaning bathrooms (sinks, tubs, showers, and toilets), cleaning kitchens, straightening all rooms, organizing closets and drawers, and cleaning any interior windows reachable without a ladder are all examples of light housekeeping services that our caregivers can perform for your senior in need.

Grocery Shopping and Errands

Comfort Keepers' companion care services can incorporate grocery shopping, prescription pick-up, and other errands into your loved one's tailored long-term care plan to help individuals who prefer not to or cannot leave their house.

We offer transportation services to those who need assistance getting home from the hospital or a ride to and from essential doctor's appointments.
