Companion Care for Seniors at Home
Friendly, reliable company and practical help at home, from trained companions we call WellnessMates. Serving families across Maryland and Northern Virginia.
More than someone to sit with
Loneliness and long quiet days wear people down. Companion care puts a familiar, friendly person in the home on a regular schedule: someone to talk with, share a meal with, and get out of the house with.
Our companions are called WellnessMates because they do more than keep company. Every visit includes activities that keep body and mind active, drawn from our Energize 60+ and Brainergize 60+ programs.
Visits are flexible: from a couple of hours a week to several hours every day.
What companion care includes
Everyday help that keeps life at home enjoyable and safe.
Company and conversation
Talk, games, reading, hobbies, walks and visits with friends.
Meals and light housekeeping
Simple meal preparation, tidying, laundry and organizing.
Errands and appointments
Groceries, pharmacy pickups, salon trips and going with you to the doctor.
Activity for body and mind
Guided gentle exercise and brain games as part of every visit.
Who companion care is for
Companion care suits older adults who are largely independent but would benefit from regular company and a helping hand:
Someone living alone who has become isolated
A parent who has stopped driving
A spouse who needs a few hours of cover each week
Anyone who would do more with a little encouragement
If your loved one also needs help with bathing, dressing or mobility, see personal care.
How it works
Three simple steps, no long contracts.
1. Tell us what you need
Call us or request a free assessment. We listen first and ask about routines, health and preferences.
2. Meet your WellnessMate
We match a trained, background-checked companion to your loved one and agree a schedule that suits you.
3. Stay informed
You get shift reports on daily activities. Our nurses review care logs and adjust the plan as needs change.
Good to know
Straight answers before you call.
Paying for companion care
We are a private-pay agency and work with long-term care insurance policies; we provide the detailed invoices and care documentation insurers ask for. We are not a Medicaid or Medicare provider.
There are no long-term contracts.
