Companionship Care

For many families living far away from loved ones, it can be very difficult to help an older parent, family member or friend living on their own.  A health condition or increasingly limited mobility can increase isolation for elderly people, or maybe there just aren’t as many friends around to spend time with as there once were who are able to offer daily companionship care.

Loneliness can have a significant impact on mental health and wellbeing, which in turn can delay recovery from illness and injury.

Companionship homecare offers a friendly face and allows you to take back control of your life, re-enabling involvement in social events and activities.

• A friendly face to develop a meaningful relationship with
• Opportunities to chat and share experiences and have a companion for social events and trips

• Companionship to help reduce loneliness
• Personal care if required

MyLife offers companionship designed around you; choosing what you would like to do for the day, or plan for the week.  This could be baking cakes, having a coffee and a chat, going shopping, providing support with medical appointments, learning how to use a smartphone or tablet, or starting a hobby – all of this becomes much easier when there is someone else around to help make it happen.

A MyLife companion can also provide domestic help around the home and personal care if you wish, or you might choose to have another assistant specifically for this.
