Why should I use a Companion Care Service rather than hire someone directly?
Companion/client interactions are intimate by nature. The Companion is there to assist with many of the most personal tasks of daily living. It is absolutely vital that this person be compassionate, trustworthy, skilled, empathetic, and professional.
How much does companion care cost?
The hourly rate for this relatively affordable care varies by state. The average wage for a companion caregiver in North Carolina is $10.90 per hour.
Are the Companions required to have a license?
Companion care is typically the best option for otherwise healthy individuals who need assistance in order to live safely and independently at home. This option can often delay the premature depletion of resources caused by costly stays at full-time care facilities. Companions provide non-medical services that make life more manageable for the client. There is no license for these vital services.
Do you provide aid to those in hospitals, assisted-living or nursing homes?
Absolutely! Being away from home and adjusting to a new environment can be very stressful. Patients receiving medical treatments are often agitated and confused. Having a calm, reassuring presence dedicated to making them feel safe and secure is comforting.
