Companion Care in Daytona Beach, FL

As seniors age, they can face significant issues dealing with feelings of isolation, depression, and loneliness. This can be especially true if a senior has lost a spouse, family member, or close friends. It can also be the case for seniors with dementia, Alzheimer's, or hearing loss - seniors can pull back and not participate as much in activities or conversations. 

Senior caregivers referred by Visiting Angels can provide companionship in addition to assisting with everyday activities. Even if it's for a few hours a week, companion care can promote positive socialization, communication, and engaging in a favorite activity.

Benefits of Companion Care

There are plenty of benefits for seniors who engage with companion care - including physical, emotional, and social benefits.

• Social Benefits – Regular interaction with a caregiver promotes companionship, enhancing happiness and a sense of belonging. Caregivers can take your loved one to a farmers market, park, run errands, or a senior center.
• Mental Benefits – Caregivers can encourage seniors to participate in hobbies, puzzles, games, or other mentally stimulating activities. Getting seniors to engage in activities can help maintain cognitive function and slow the progression of conditions like dementia and Alzheimer's.
• Physical Benefits – Seniors dealing with chronic pain or reduced mobility can find it challenging to get up and do activities. Caregivers can encourage gentle exercise like walking or stretching, contributing to better mobility and overall health.
• Emotional Benefits – Our referred caregivers can provide your loved one with a listening ear - someone to talk to and share their hopes, desires, and struggles. This is especially beneficial for seniors who have lost loved ones or whose families live far away.

Companion Care Keeps Seniors Independent

For seniors who want to remain in their home as long as possible, companion care is a great starting point. An experience caregiver can support them at first with social interactions and help with running errands. As a senior needs more help, the caregiver is already there and familiar with the senior's routine, preferences, and needs. This can provide peace of mind for family members - especially if you are out of town or live in another state.

Companion care can be scheduled for as little as a few hours a week. Our referral specialists will meet with you to create a plan that meets your needs, schedule, and budget. We can also provide referrals for Daytona Beach respite care, so you can avoid caregiver burnout.
