Companion Care
Do you have an elderly or disabled loved one who longs for companionship and a break from the isolation of being homebound? Are you in need of a "time out" from the stressful and time-consuming role of sole companion and primary caregiver for a homebound loved one?
Caring certified home health aides from the VNA are a welcome source of encouragement and support for individuals needing special attention or for caregivers needing respite care. The health aides can also provide practical household assistance. Our aides offer essential, uplifting forms of human interaction including:
- Socialization and conversation
- Letter writing assistance
- Reading aloud of books and periodicals
- Assistance reading and responding to mail
- Walking and other light exercise in and around the home
"We can't thank the VNA enough for the emotional support and professional services they provided us during my father's illness. They are a wonderful group of people and we would recommend them to any family in need of assistance."
