Companion Care Services in Pacific Palisades

Can This Help With Anxiety?

For seniors in Pacific Palisades and across the country, anxiety goes hand-in-hand with aging. It's a significant risk for older individuals, especially if they're dealing with loss of independence and isolation. That's where companion care services can help out. 

At Visiting Angels^® Santa Monica, we help families across the region find compassionate support for their loved ones. Here's why we recommend companion care. 

3 Ways That Companion Care Services Can Support Seniors 

From regular socializing to creating consistency, the benefits of companion care in Pacific Palisades are wide-ranging: 

• Social contact. Regular social interaction is shown to have a significant effect on feelings of anxiety and distress. Because seniors live alone, they're often more vulnerable to the risks of social isolation. Through companion care services, we make it easy for our clients to get frequent and compassionate social interaction. Your loved one can look forward to visits from the same, familiar caregiver every time. 
• Encouraging activities. Walking, gardening, painting, reading—all of these activities are proven to reduce moments of anxiety. Many seniors give up favorite activities for a variety of reasons, but having a regular caregiver can help. We encourage our clients to pursue hobbies or engage in activities they love. We can accompany them on walks or around the garden, or even read to them. 
• Consistency and support. For seniors in Pacific Palisades, it can often get harder and harder to do things around the home. That may be due to lack of structure—making it more difficult to plan out specific errands or tasks—or decreasing mobility or strength. Understandably, all of this can cause a lot of anxiety and frustration. Caregiver support means they don't have to worry about those tasks, and they get to enjoy consistency again.
