Common questions
What families ask us most.
Is companion care the same as a befriender?
It's more involved. A companion live-in carer is present 24 hours, sharing meals, conversation, outings and a steady presence in the home — and can provide light personal-care support when needed.
Who is companion care for?
Older adults who are physically well but isolated, recently bereaved, lacking confidence after a fall, or starting to feel unsafe alone at night.
Can companion care become full care later?
Yes. Many of our clients start with companionship-led care and we add personal care, dementia experience or clinical coordination as needs change — usually with the same carer where possible.
How is this different from a paid friend?
Our companion carers are professionally vetted, trained and accountable. They are matched to interests and personality, but the relationship is a professional one with a coordinator behind it.
