What Is Companion Care?

Companion care is a non-medical service that focuses on providing emotional support, social interaction, and assistance with daily living activities. Unlike personal care or skilled nursing—which involve hands-on physical assistance or clinical tasks—companion care centers on enhancing a senior’s quality of life through meaningful engagement and practical support. Companion care can also be easily integrated into a routine for our clients receiving our other services.

At Moon River Senior Care, companion caregivers can assist with:

Conversation and companionship
Memory activities such as photo albums and scrapbooking
Organizing recipes and meal planning
Grocery shopping and errands
Calendar management
Accompaniment to social events or walks

Our Caregivers

Moon River Senior Care and Transportation caregivers are carefully recruited, screened and trained. We believe that it is a privilege to enter your home and that you should be comfortable with the caregiver. In advance of the first assignment, each client is provided with an introduction to the caregiver. After the first visit, we seek the client’s feedback as to his/her satisfaction. If the client is not satisfied, another caregiver will be assigned.

Our agency is committed to helping clients maintain the highest level of independence. We believe that senior care services are personal and should be tailored to match each client’s needs, with consideration to interests and preferences.

Cognitive and Emotional Benefits of Companion Care

Companion care offers more than just help around the house—it plays a vital role in supporting cognitive health and emotional well-being.

Mental Stimulation

Regular interaction with a caregiver can help keep the mind active. Activities like puzzles, memory games, storytelling, and engaging conversations stimulate cognitive function and may help slow memory decline.

Emotional Support

Loneliness and social isolation are significant risk factors for depression and anxiety in older adults. Companion caregivers provide consistent social interaction and emotional support, helping seniors feel connected and valued.

Promoting Purpose and Self-Worth

Maintaining a sense of purpose is crucial for seniors’ emotional well-being. Companion care encourages participation in hobbies, social activities, and community engagement, fostering a sense of belonging and fulfillment.
