Community Health Professionals, Inc. is piloting a new, non-medical senior companion service this month, called Hometown Helpers.
The companionship program offers caregivers who will spend time with seniors, providing socialization and assistance with living tasks like grocery shopping, errands, playing games, reading, transportation to appointments, eating a meal together, feeding a pet and more.
“Whether you live across the country or across the street from your aging family members, it helps to know they have someone nearby who can check in and spend time with them,” said Brent Tow, CHP President/CEO.
