Companion Care for Inland Empire Seniors
Uplifting care and friendship for your loved one
At Comfort Keepers® Redlands and Yucaipa, we understand the incredible effects that socialization and companionship can have on elderly mental health and well-being. Opportunities to engage with others and grow relationships with friends, family, neighbors, and community members can help improve symptoms of depression, ease feelings of senior isolation and loneliness, and even reduce the risk of dementia.
By spending time with our caregivers, your loved one not only has someone at the ready to help around the house or help prepare a meal, but they also have a friend who offers social connection and a companion who can help them get back to doing the things that bring them joy.
What is companion care?
Companion care, or companionship, provides emotional support, friendship, and socialization for seniors and other independent adults. Our caregivers are trained and skilled in a broad range of care services that support home companion care, senior mental health, and aging in place.
