Domiciliary care is also known as in-home care with care provided in the comfort of your own home.
Providers can specialise in dementia care, mental health conditions, personal care,
physical disabilities, sensory impairments and caring for adults under or over 65 years.
What is Companion Caring?…
Companion Caring is an essential service that I provide, because it is the perfect solution for Elderly Clients who need some help at home, but don’t really require medical care.
Using this service enables an elderly person to remain in the comfort of their own home, as opposed to relocating to an Old Age Home but still have help with tasks that have become troublesome for them, and it provides companionship in a situation where an elderly person runs the risk of becoming socially isolated. Research shows that lack of human contact is a real risk for the elderly, and can lead to depression. I know that older people are less likely than younger generations to complain about not having enough company, or admit that they have trouble with managing to shower, get light shopping and these kinds of tasks, which is why I offer Personal Companion Care as a service.
I am a qualified Care Provider and am also experienced in Companion Caring. Companion Caring is a different service to those needing qualified nursing staff. In Companion Caring, it is vital that I get to know my client and understand their preferences and the life they have led to this point. For example, a person who has always been physically active may feel frustrated by the effects of ageing, and knowing this, helps me to find solutions that will brighten my client’s spirits.
As a Companion Carer I can help with a wide range of tasks, although I know that not all of them will be required in every case. Personalisation of every service I offer is a part of my ethos and I will always ensure that my service is tailored to my client’s individual needs.
As a Companion Carer I can als
o take care of doing light shopping or collecting medication from the pharmacy, taking my client out for a change of scenery, going for a cup of coffee, taking my client for a doctor’s appointment, watching a movie or going to visit a friend.
If you would prefer me to just come and visit you in your home and sit and chat or play a relaxing game of chess or draughts, I am available to do so.
If my client has a dog or cat, I can also assist with looking after them; taking the dog for a walk for example, or accompanying my client with their dog on a walk to ensure both remain safe.
I can also assist my client with selecting clothes to wear for the outing, but above all I will help to prevent the loneliness that afflicts so many elderly and give the client’s family peace of mind by knowing that someone is looking after their loved one.
There are various kinds of Carers practising various types of Care.
Listed below are some of the regular types of Care…
* Elderly Care
* Domiciliary Care…
* Personal Care
* Medical Care
* Private Family Care
* Child Care
* Compassionate Care
* Companion Care
Each of the above forms of care play their individual part in the caring industry and although I am qualified to deliver in each of these areas I will be focussing only
on Companion Care.

Companion Care
Sometimes the most important care we deliver is a simple cup of tea and a chat. According to Age UK, there are reportedly 1.4 million elderly people chronically lonely in the UK. Many go long periods of time without having a conversation with someone, which is why companions for the elderly are so important. Our companion services aim to prevent feelings of loneliness and support you to gain the confidence you need to live the life you want.
Why choose Companion Caring?
Having others to rely on to do the grocery shopping or who are there at the end of the phone
for a chat, can make a positive difference to people’s lives. However if a bereavement or relocation means they are no longer there, life can become a little more challenging. Having a care companion can make a great difference to your quality of life, supporting you to get back on track and live the life you want.
