Companion Care / Social Support
Companion Care is crucial for ensuring seniors' well-being as they age gracefully. Sustaining happiness and health in older age requires regular social interaction, consistent exercise, ample sleep, and proper nutrition. It goes beyond fostering regular social interactions; it plays a multifaceted role in promoting the holistic well-being of seniors.
Individuals living alone frequently encounter feelings of loneliness, isolation, and depression, which can significantly impact their already delicate health. Older and disabled individuals often grapple with challenges like depression and cognitive decline.
Fostering regular social connections through the company of a friendly carer can markedly enhance the overall well-being of your loved one.
In essence, Companion Care serves as a comprehensive support system, addressing emotional, mental, and physical aspects of well-being for older individuals.
Our Care Services
Emotional Support
Ageing can bring about various life changes, including losing friends or family. A compassionate companion provides emotional support, offering a listening ear and understanding during challenging times.
Safety & Assistance
A companion provides emotional reassurance and ensures a safe environment for seniors. They can offer assistance with daily activities, reducing the risk of accidents and promoting overall safety.
Companionship
Whether attending community events, cultural activities, or simply enjoying a stroll, a companion provides the much-needed company that contributes to a fulfilling and enjoyable life.
Mental Stimulation
Engaging in conversations, playing games, or pursuing shared hobbies with a companion helps stimulate cognitive function, reducing the risk of cognitive decline and enhancing mental acuity.
Reduced Isolation
Seniors are susceptible to social isolation, which can lead to various health issues. Companion Care actively combats isolation by creating opportunities for social engagement, contributing to a more vibrant and connected life.
Post-Hospital Care
Navigating post-hospital care regimens can be intricate and challenging, especially during recovery. An additional supportive hand becomes paramount to ensure a smooth recuperation process. Adhering to the doctor's prescriptions and instructions is crucial to reduce the likelihood of hospital readmission.
At Shinga Care, our caregivers are fully qualified and undergo rigorous training to deliver expert care during this critical recovery period. We understand the importance of a seamless transition from hospital to home, and our services precisely facilitate that. Our approach focuses on promoting healing for the patient while simultaneously alleviating stress and anxiety for all family members involved in the care process. Trust us to make the journey from hospital discharge to home recovery a smoother and more manageable experience. Some services that are helpful at these times include:
