One of the overwhelming concerns for adult children is the mental and emotional well-being of their aging parents. Throughout NW Washington, DC, many seniors tend to spend their days at home in relative isolation.

Seniors may feel uncomfortable in social situations on their own or have mobility or balance problems that create anxiety around the thought of leaving the house. In many cases, seniors would like to have regular interactions with friends and family, but distance and health issues prevent travel and regular time spent together. This lack of interaction creates sadness and a higher risk for the development of depression, but there is a solution.

‍Senior Care with a Difference

Choosing our home health care services is an ideal solution to this very real issue. Our senior companion program matches your loved one with our trusted, experienced, and compassionate caregivers.

We also carefully choose the professional senior care giving staff for your loved one.Having a regular staff member and a predictable schedule gives your elderly parent the confidence in knowing just when the caregiver will arrive and who it will be.
