Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What does a companion do? Is it just sitting and talking?
A: It can be a great conversation over lunch, but it is also much more than that. We focus on the practical, everyday things that keep a household running smoothly. Our companions help write grocery lists, tidy up the house, and assist with basic meal support. We also keep a close eye on home safety, helping you spot potential trip hazards like a loose carpet or a cluttered pathway so your loved one can navigate their home safely with a cane or walker and much more.
Q: My parent has Long-Term Care Insurance. Do you accept LTCI?
A: We work with many Long-Term Care Insurance providers. With your authorization, we can also assist with the paperwork and claims process to help make everything easier for your family.
Is there a minimum number of hours?
A: Yes, to provide consistent, meaningful support, we have a 5-hour minimum per visit.
