Its a worry when you go away on holiday and have to leave an elderly relative who is used to you popping in regularly for a chat. Good Companions can help plug that temporary gap to allow you to relax into a well earned break, knowing that someone trust worthy and caring will drop by to ensure all is well. Its reassuring for all concerned to know that your family member will have company and that there is someone to help with shopping or to take them out for coffee.
Sheila can also step in to provide friendly help and support for an elderly or disabled person if they find themselves alone, for a short period of time; for example if their main carer/partner/family member has to go into hospital. We can reduce stress and anxiety, offer practical support, do shopping, sort things out, organise visits, and generally keeping things ticking over.
