Companion Care
Attentive, non-medical companionship for your person, and a few hours of breathing room for you.
Companion Care gives your person regular, non-medical company and gives you a few hours to step away. I spend time with older adults and people living with dementia or serious illness, following their lead on how they would like to use the visit.
Companion Care is for older adults and people living with dementia or serious illness who would benefit from regular, attentive company, and for the families who love them and need occasional relief.
I provide companion care in Brooklyn and, depending on location and scheduling, parts of Manhattan
Who This Is For
What a Visit Looks Like
Every visit is shaped by what your person feels like doing that day. We might talk, read, play games adapted to their abilities, cook something simple, watch a film, take a local outing, or go to an appointment. I can bring ideas, but I follow their lead.
I don’t administer medications, assist with personal care, or replace hospice or home health aides.
How You Might Use This Time
A few hours is enough. Run an errand, see your own doctor, take a nap, call a friend, or just sit somewhere quiet for a while. Whatever you need, that's what this time is for. This isn't selfish; it's necessary.

You're doing important work. It's okay to take a break.
