Companion Care involves a Carer visiting your home to provide vital social interaction beyond Personal Care or complex needs. It ensures you or your loved one can continue cherishing life’s most beloved aspects while at home.
As individuals age, many experience elderly loneliness, especially if they live far from family and friends. Companion Care offers regular visits from compassionate Carers for friendly conversations, outings, or walks, tailored to your preferences. At Greenvilla Care, we personalize care to match your specific needs and interests, enhancing your or your loved one’s life and supporting your desired lifestyle.
The care you want, in the place you call home.
Options for Companion Care
Determining the suitability of Companion Care for yourself or a loved one is a significant decision that demands careful consideration. It’s crucial to weigh the options based on your specific circumstances while guaranteeing that the needs of you or your loved one are adequately addressed. Greenvilla Homecare presents two variations of Companion Home Care:
-
Visiting Companion Care
Visiting Companion care involves a Carer visiting the home at scheduled times to offer companionship. At Greenvilla Care, we provide 15-minute wellbeing checks, and our companion care visits begin at 30 minutes. Our care plans are tailored to suit you or your loved one, ensuring flexibility when circumstances shift. If occasional conversations a few times a week or attending a weekly event with a visiting Companion Care would be beneficial, it might be the most fitting choice.

Live -in - Companion Care
Our Companion Care service offers the presence of a Carer who resides in your or your loved one’s home, offering continuous companionship. This service is available around the clock, including overnight care for those dealing with insomnia.
