The Potential Harms of Senior Aloneness
Few ever complain. Yet loneliness and a lack of regular social interaction can result in the decline of physical and mental wellbeing. Companion care can fend off these harmful issues.
Whenever possible we encourage clients to re-engage with the outside world with our help. For a lot of seniors—especially older ones—it's been a while since they had meaningful conversations.
It's not only good to talk—it's nourishment for the soul. Reminiscing is especially important to a lot of older adults. A Comfort Keeper senior care aide has a genuine interest in helping clients to open up.
