Loneliness is hard on anyone, especially an older adult who spends most of the day at home. Companion care gives your loved one a friendly, reliable person to talk with, eat with, and spend the afternoon with.

Conversation, stories, and catching up on the news
Cooking and sharing a meal
A walk outside or around the neighborhood
Cards, puzzles, music, and favorite shows
Help keeping up with hobbies and routines
Help keeping track of appointments and arranging rides

Medication reminders

Who it helps

Companion care is a good fit when a parent is mostly independent but lonely, when family lives far away or works long hours, or when you'd simply feel better knowing someone is with them. Many families start with companion care and add personal care as needs change.

How it works

Call us for a free consultation. Tell us what your loved one enjoys, what their days look like, and when company would help most. We match a caregiver whose personality fits, and set a schedule that works for your family.

Every caregiver is background-checked. We're insured and bonded, and we send a backup if your caregiver can't make a visit.

Paying for companion care

If your loved one has Delaware Medicaid long-term care, ask us what their plan covers. Learn how Medicaid home care works.

Questions families ask

Can the caregiver drive my parent to appointments?

Our caregivers don't drive clients, but they can help your loved one get ready, keep track of appointments, and line up a ride with family, a medical transport service, or the Medicaid plan's transportation benefit if they have one.

What if my parent and the caregiver don't click?

Tell us. We'll find a better match.
