Think about the role your family and friends play in your life now. Do you enjoy seeing them often? Do you look forward to spending time with them and catching up on the weekends? Are they able to bring you out of a bad mood? We naturally look forward to interpersonal connections, and that doesn’t change as we age. However, it’s easy for older adults to experience a steep decline in their social lives as they start to age at home, which can bring a variety of issues. Luckily, Sage Home Care offers companion care services that can help avoid these issues!

How Can Companion Services for Seniors Help?

Whether an older loved one realizes it or not, aging at home can bring on feelings of isolation and loneliness. While they were once able to visit family and friends whenever they wanted, they may now be unable to drive on their own and have to rely on others to take them where they need to go. They may have enjoyed going to community events, but now they aren’t able to be out long without someone present to help monitor their health. For older adults, age-related changes like these can make it difficult to stay engaged in the world around them. The isolation that can potentially come with aging at home can cause:

• Senior depression
• Decreased cognitive health from a lack of stimulation
• Increased anxiety
• And an increased chance of chronic conditions such as high blood pressure.

What Services Can a Companion Caregiver Provide?

Sage Home Care’s senior companionship services offer a wide-range of assistance to ensure each person’s needs are fully met. Our professional companionship services may include:

• Accompaniment to community events
