Companion Care Services in Grants Pass

How It Differs from Personal Care

At Visiting Angels^® Medford, we offer companion care services and other home care options for Grants Pass area seniors. The goal of our in-home assistance is to increase their comfort, safety, and overall quality of life while helping them avoid the move to a care facility. To help you decide on the right care option for your relative, let's go over the difference between our two most popular care options: companion care and personal care.

Both of these categories include basic assistance and companionship from a friendly and kind senior care professional. The key difference is that personal care includes help with physical tasks, and companion care does not. So, if your loved one needs assistance with bathing, grooming, or other mobility issues, personal care is the right choice. If they can handle those duties on their own but could use some help with ordinary household tasks, companion care is a more appropriate option. 

The Benefits of Our Companion Care Services in Grants Pass

Our companion care is designed for seniors who are quite capable but can still benefit from some support. Some benefits of our service include:

• Preventing Social Isolation. Being alone can do terrible things to their mental, emotional, and physical well-being. Isolation puts them at risk of depression, household falls, and an increase in overall mortality. We will be there to share conversations and daily activities to prevent feelings of loneliness and extreme isolation. 
• Improving Home Safety and Comfort. With our caregivers taking over household chores and other tasks, we can reduce fall hazards and build a safer and more comfortable home life. 
• Stress Relief for Your Family. Caregiver burnout is common among family care providers. We take pride in providing a source of trusted relief. With our companion care, your loved one will have all the help and company they need, and you'll be able to get the rest you deserve.
