Companion Care Services in Anderson

How it Differs From Personal Care

If you've never set up home care before, you may be wondering which is more suitable for your loved one: companion care services or personal care. For families in Anderson, Visiting Angels^® Redding can always walk you through each of these options. We're dedicated to ensuring our clients have exceptional care and attention at all times. 

Let's review personal and companion care in more detail. 

Choosing Between Companion Care Services and Personal Care

When you're choosing between your care options, here are a few questions to ask: 

• How frequently is care needed? If your loved one needs regular daily care or even 24-hour care, we'd typically recommend personal care. For seniors who need help once a day or care scheduled every few days, companion care may be the more suitable option. 
• What tasks need support? Companion care services are great for those seniors who need help with laundry, grocery shopping, or more general day-to-day tasks. For seniors in Anderson who need support with mobility or daily grooming tasks, personal care can provide that level of in-depth support. 
• Does your loved one have health concerns? If your family member has significant health concerns, personal care can offer non-medical support. We can provide medication reminders and assist with logistics for medical deliveries or appointments. If these aren't a concern for your loved one, we'd recommend companion care.  

Helping Seniors Thrive With Companion Care in Anderson 

Companion care can have a profound effect on the quality of life of seniors. Here are a few ways we can make a difference: 

• We help keep the house in order. Housekeeping involves a lot of bending and straining, which may become difficult for seniors. We take on laundry, changing linens, and other light housekeeping tasks. 
• We handle meals. When seniors have specific dietary needs, preparing meals can become more complicated. From grocery shopping to cooking, our caregivers in Anderson can do it all. 
• We keep seniors connected. With companion care services, your loved one will always have a friendly face nearby. We help prevent loneliness and isolation, helping seniors stay in touch with friends and family, too.
