Senior Home Companion Services
Home senior home companion services can be provided by independent contractors, family members, or professional agencies. Unlike agencies, independent contractors are not required to be licensed or insured, and they may not perform background checks. In some cases, an agency can also offer additional services, such as free in-home safety assessments. Before selecting a service, however, you should ask the agency about their staff and the qualifications of the employees. The quality of the service you receive will depend on the quality of the services you choose.
