FirstLight’s companion care services offer emotional support, socialization and the assistance adults need to manage daily tasks.
In addition to practical help with everyday non-medical activities, our personalized companion care services offer emotional support, conversation and meaningful relationships that are built on trust and respect. On top of that, the company’s senior companion experts assist with household tasks from grocery shopping and meal preparation to ensuring clients take their medication on time.
Conversation and Company
Having a visitor can make all the difference in the world. A caregiver can provide senior care companionship by sharing a conversation, providing friendship and helping older adults stay socially connected to family, friends and their community.
Basic Household Tasks
It can be difficult for older adults to keep up with cleaning and organizing their home. Companion care services make basic household tasks easier, as caregivers are able to assist with light cleaning, laundry, organizing bills, sorting mail and keeping track of important paperwork.
Grocery Shopping and Meal Preparation
Nutrition is the foundation of overall health and wellness, yet some seniors fail to eat a proper diet. FirstLight caregivers often manage grocery shopping and preparing meals that provide sufficient nutrition in addition to companionship that adds joy and comfort to someone’s day.
Transportation Assistance
Picking up groceries, prescriptions or dry cleaning are common needs of those trying to maintain their independence at home. Our caregivers provide transportation that helps clients run errands, get to appointments on time and attend social events in the local community.
Medication Reminders
Taking medicine as prescribed is essential. Companion care includes regular reminders that ensure medications are taken properly and on time.
