Companion Home Care of Long Island, Inc.

Companion Home Care offers a variety of private pay services to enrich the daily lives of our clients. Our caregivers are so much more than companions. They are trained to make living at home a joy for each and every client.

For so many, the idea of aging and requiring assistance can be overwhelming. Our caregivers strive to assure that the client feels as comforted by their presence as they would if it were a family member or close friend.

The services performed by our caregivers include:

We are an In-home care agency. We specialize in live in and hourly In Home Care and will also service clients in ALF, hospitals, nursing homes.

Companionship

As seniors age and become less able to care for their own daily needs they tend to withdraw and suffer from feelings of helplessness and depression. Our caregivers are trained to encourage the client to stick with their established daily routine. They will provide socialization, play their favorite game, assist with correspondence to friends and family, go for a walk and so much more.

Light Housekeeping

Your caregivers will do the daily dusting, vacuuming and laundry. They will change the bed linens on a regular basis and make sure the home is neat and orderly as the client would have had it when they, themselves had been able to do these tasks. This contributes to the client having a sense of continuity and security. A comforting feeling that little has changed.

Meal Preparation

Your caregiver will prepare favorite meals and assure that your loved one eats on a regular basis. They will enjoy mealtime together, again, enhancing the feeling of family and reducing feelings of loneliness and isolation.

Liquid Intake
