Companionship

Loneliness can be a painful feeling. Our Nurses on Demand can provide caring companionship services to family members, friends, or loved ones who enjoy independence but may struggle with everyday activities. Everyone needs companionship, however, seniors especially struggle with elderly isolation. This can lead to decreased physical and mental health. Companionship care is perfect for people living alone or far from family. Our fully certified nurse can provide company, conversation, and help with basic everyday tasks. Not only are our nurse’s medical professionals, but they are also great with the art of conversation. Every patient’s needs will be different, we recommend calling us for an initial consultation to get a better idea of what your companionship care will look like. 

The ultimate goal of all Nurses on Demand companion care is to 

  • Provide emotional support
  • Improve quality of life 
  • Provide companionship 

This can include a wide range of daily tasks such as:

  • Grocery shopping
  • Walks around the neighbourhood and other forms of exercise
  • Cards and games
  • Outside activities
  • Movies, music, exploring hobbies together
  • Making and enjoying meals together
  • Conversation and storytelling etc.

Companionship for the elderly is so important, it is the fuel that brings meaning back to their lives and with that comes the willingness to do more. If you choose to allow Nurses on Demand to provide companion care, you can rest assured that your loved one will be provided with the best care available. This is someone who your senior or family member can rely on. Seniors aren’t the only ones whose lives are improved by this type of care. 

Family caregivers can find respite, and peace of mind by hiring a care companion. Whether you live in Edmonton or a neighboring area, you will have the reassurance that your loved one is being cared for by a trustworthy and caring nurse.
