When it comes to the well-being of seniors, their family members are often aware of the physical risks their loved ones may face as they age. However, a common issue for seniors which is often overlooked is isolation. Elderly adults are more likely to spend large amounts of time alone due to inability to drive, loss of a spouse, limited mobility, hearing or vision issues, chronic health concerns, and more. Senior isolation has many negative consequences including cognitive decline, poor physical health, and depression. Companion care in Worcester from Visiting Angels^® Worcester MA can help combat isolation.

Elderly companion care from Visiting Angels Worcester provides seniors with regular companionship they can look forward to. Our caregivers are compassionate professionals who enjoy spending time with seniors. Our agency is frequently told by the families we work with that their loved one's senior care provider has become "like family."
