What is Companion Care?

Companion Care involves a Carer visiting you or your loved one at home to provide valuable social interaction. Our Home Care services aren’t just about supporting Personal Care or complex needs. Our Companion Care enables you or your loved one to continue enjoying the things you love most about your life at home.

As people get older, many experience elderly loneliness. Life can be more challenging without someone to talk to regularly. This is often the case if you or your loved one live alone or far from family and friends.

With Companion Care, one of our friendly Carers will regularly visit you or your loved one for a cup of tea and a chat, a day trip to a favourite place, or a walk in the park. At Alina Homecare, our care is tailored to meet your or your loved one’s exact needs. We consider your preferences, interests and hobbies and aim to match you with a like minded Companionship Carer.

Your home, Your care, Your choice.

How much does it cost?

The cost of Companion Care at Home varies depending on the needs of you or your loved one. We aim to provide affordable companionship whilst also maintaining excellent quality service with fully trained Carers.

Our Team will work with you and your loved one to form a bespoke care plan that suits your individual requirements, routines and budget.

When considering the cost, you may feel worried about how to pay for care. In the UK, there may be ways to get help with funding:

Local council & NHS – you may be eligible for funding from your local council or the NHS after means testing
Benefits – there are also benefits like Attendance Allowance or Personal Independence Payment, which can help pay for some care at home

Chat with your local Alina Homecare Team about your requirements and our costs. You can also use our Costs Calculator.

What makes Alina Homecare different?

Our services stand out because we have professionally trained Companion Carers who are passionate about making life easier. We make sure family members are part of care planning so that care is individualised to each person. It’s all about meeting you and your loved one’s specific needs together.

Experienced & Specially Trained Carers

The quality of care you receive is directly affected by a care provider’s knowledge and their ability to help others. Our Teams receive exclusive training from our Alina Homecare Academy to meet our exacting standards, helping people stay independent in the comfort of their own home.

Why choose Companion Care?

Companion Home Care for the elderly aims to decrease feelings of loneliness for you or your loved one. According to Age UK, almost one million older people in the UK are often lonely.¹ A lot of the time, this begins after losing a significant relationship, living alone or struggling to find opportunities for meaningful social interaction.

Unfortunately, social isolation and loneliness can have a negative impact on mental health, which can also lead to poorer physical health. Having an elderly companion can make all the difference and help improve quality of life.

At Alina Homecare, we provide regular companionship for you or your loved one to make a positive difference in your day. Whatever support you need, care can be tailored to your individual requirements. Whether you want someone to visit you or your loved one at home for companionship, someone to challenge at chess or to accompany you or your loved one on regular days out, we can help.

Live-in Care Benefits

+ Confidence

+ Wellbeing support

+ Relieve caregivers

+ Physical health

+ Hobbies

+ Social interaction

Confidence

Knowing there is someone there to support you or your loved one provides added confidence and peace of mind. Our Companionship Carers are there to not only make life at home more comfortable but to be a companion on trips out so you or your loved one doesn’t have to go alone. Having someone to support you or your loved one can provide a boost of confidence, leading to better quality of life.

Physical health

Your mental health impacts your physical health and vice versa. It’s important to take care of your wellbeing, especially for the elderly who may have an existing condition. Our Carers provide companionship which can support the challenges of dealing with a physical health condition. Whether you’d benefit from a friendly chat or even someone to watch a film with, we can help.

Wellbeing support

Many elderly people experience loneliness. Having an elderly companion means there is someone there to provide social interaction and valuable support for you or your loved ones. We dedicate our time to understanding your situation and needs. Companion Care can be just what you or your loved one needs to support mental wellbeing.

Relieve caregivers

Many older people receive care from their loved ones, but this can become overwhelming over time and put pressure on the relationship. Companion Respite Care can relieve primary caregivers, allowing them to have a regular break and time for themselves. At Alina Homecare, we do our best to fill in for you or your usual caregiver to ensure continuity of quality companionship.

Continue hobbies

Gardening for seniors, watching a classic film or knitting a jumper. We all want to continue our favourite hobbies and often, it’s more fun sharing your interests and passions with someone like minded. Our Companion Carers support you or your loved one to continue usual hobbies.

Social interaction

Social interaction can bring great benefits to your mental wellbeing. Having a caring person there to listen to your thoughts and feelings can make a huge difference to your day. Companion Care at Home can particularly benefit the elderly who live alone or receive little social interaction. This can be round the clock or part of our sitting service for elderly people.

Companion Care stories

Many people find that receiving Companion Care at home makes a real difference to their daily life. Alongside practical support, the reassurance of friendly company helps reduce loneliness and promote feelings of comfort and confidence. Companion Care is all about meeting the individual needs and preferences of each person, whether that’s having a regular catch up over a cup of tea, enjoying hobbies or having support with everyday routines.

Every member of the Team are patient, kind, attentive and when I speak to Mum she always talks about how nice everyone is.
Min K., Daughter

Background

Following a sudden health setback, Min’s elderly Mother required care to remain safely in her own home whilst Min is living abroad.

Challenge

The family needed to arrange Home Care quickly, with reassurance that their Mother’s wellbeing and independence would be supported whilst staying informed from a distance.

Solution

We stepped in to provide Live-in Care whilst Min’s Mother was recovering, followed by domiciliary support from a kind and attentive Team. Our Carers worked with her to maintain independence and Birdie, our care monitoring app., offered daily updates. The family gained peace of mind and saw a clear improvement in her mood and quality of life.

They have given us remarkable peace of mind in addition to supporting us which has been very frustrating at times. Absolutely brilliant and a lovely Team.
Neil H., Son

Background

Neil’s Father was struggling to live independently after a series of falls. The family arranged short daily care visits to provide home help and support for his mental wellbeing.

Challenge

As his needs increased, the family needed dependable Carers to support his safety and wellbeing with confidence, especially when they weren’t close by themselves.

Solution

We provided high quality support and acted swiftly when another fall occurred, ensuring his hospital admission was handled smoothly and personal belongings were prepared. With increased twice daily visits, the family gained peace of mind through compassionate care and excellent communication.

All the Carers who come are kind, good listeners but also good communicators, creating the opportunity for interesting conversations.
Coral W., Client

Background

Coral first had Carers supporting her husband but as time went on, needed some extra support herself with daily activities.

Challenge

They wanted Carers who were not just skilled, but genuinely kind, easy to talk to and reliable.

Solution

We provided highly trained Carers to support Coral and her Husband at home with everyday tasks, while also offering genuine companionship. We understood they wanted reliable Carers who they could chat with easily, so we carefully matched them with a couple of our Team who were the best fit to their personalities and needs.

How to arrange Companion Care

Organising Companion Care starts simply by chatting with your local Care Team about your loved one’s needs, interests and what support they need to improve their quality of life. At Alina Homecare, we act quickly to put the right support in place, whether that’s frequent companionship visits or full time care. When you enquire about our elderly Companion Care, your local Team will work with you and your loved one to find a Companion Carer to match your needs and preferences.

We work hard to match you with a likeminded and compatible Companionship Carer who will help make life easier.

The first thing you need to do is find out what your loved one really needs. You and your loved one’s voice is a crucial component of any care planning. Initially, they might need a bit of companionship, support with leaving the home or help with daily tasks. When we have this information, we can make a personalised care plan.

Comprehensive assessment of care needs
Family input and loved one’s preferences
Personalised care plan development
Local support services coordination

Choosing the right care plan isn’t only about having experienced Companion Carers. It also means selecting the types of visits and support that will improve your loved one’s quality of life and emotional wellbeing.

A Companion Carer delivering Companion Care to an elderly client.

Who can benefit from Companion Care?

Anyone can benefit from Companion Care. It can be a great option for people who live alone or could benefit from additional social interaction.

People who feel lonely or isolated

Companion Care can be beneficial for people who spend a lot of their time alone or feel isolated after a change, such as bereavement or family moving away. A friendly Companion Carer provides company at home and encouragement to stay socially connected.

People who need support leaving home

Companion Care can support people who would like to get out more but feel nervous going alone. Carers can join them on walks, trips to the shops, attending appointments or to a local club in the community. This reassurance helps build confidence so your loved one can enjoy life outside the home again.

People recovering from a hospital stay

After a medical procedure or hospital stay, recovery at home can be daunting. Companion Care provides safe support, help with household tasks and offers companionship throughout the recovery process.

Families who want peace of mind

Companion Care also benefits family members. Knowing a trained Carer is checking in and offering conversation and support can be greatly reassuring. Carers can let families know about any changes or concerns, helping everyone feel confident that their loved one is happy, safe and well supported.

What’s included in Companion Care?

Companion Care is unique to each person to ensure the right level of care and support is provided. Whether you or your loved one would like some regular company at home, or perhaps someone to go on days out with, we can help. Our Companion Care for the elderly can also include:

Activities & Hobbies

Attending Events

Running Errands

Wellbeing Support

Meal Preparation

Housekeeping

Activities & Hobbies

Sharing your favourite hobbies and activities with someone is great fun. We aim to match you or your loved one with a Companion Carer who is most suited and has common interests. Not only can they support you or your loved one to continue your usual hobbies, but to also learn new ones.

Quick Questions

What is Companion Care?

Companion Care is when a professionally trained Carer visits you or your loved one in your home for some company; someone to share your hobbies with or simply to pop to shops for you.

We are here to make a positive difference and make life easier for you or your loved one. Our Companionship Care can be just what you or your loved one needs to improve mental wellbeing.

What's included with Companion Care?

The primary aim of Companion Care is to provide valuable wellbeing support to you or your loved one. However, we endeavour to provide a comprehensive service to meet the needs of you or your loved one which is why our Companion Care service can help with a range of tasks. From general housekeeping to running errands and much more, we can help.

Why is Companion Care important?

Companion Care at home is very important in supporting emotional wellbeing and preventing elderly loneliness. It enables people to remain in the comfort of the home while enjoying regular company and support with social activities. Companion Care helps build confidence, reduces feelings of isolation and encourages people to maintain routines that bring them purpose and joy. For families, it offers reassurance that their loved one has someone to share the day and their feelings with, not just practical help.

Who delivers Companion Care?

Our Team of professionally trained Carers will provide companionship for you or your loved one at home.

What areas do you cover?

We provide Companion Care across the South of England. Find your local Team.

How much does Companion Care cost?

Companion Care costs do vary according to the type of care needed, the number of care visits and where you live. To learn more and to get a personalised quote, find your local Team.

How can I fund Companion Care?

There are many ways to fund care. Learn more by reading our guide to Home Care funding.

How does Alina Homecare compare to an agency?

Agencies are not regulated and quality cannot be guaranteed. We provide fully regulated services that are inspected by the CQC. We also provide full and exclusive training for our Care Workers, whereas private and agency Carers may not have comprehensive training. In addition to this, our services are also backed up with central support; this means you can count on us even if your Care Worker needs time off, as our local Team can step in to ensure continuity of care.

How is Companion Care monitored?

Like all our services, our Companion Care is regulated by the CQC. The CQC is an independent regulator that inspects our services to ensure our quality standards are maintained. This includes checking that our care is focused on our clients as individuals, as well as that we keep you safe at all times. In addition to this, we are proud to partner with Birdie. Birdie’s innovative care technology enables us to digitally log and monitor the support we provide. The Birdie Family app., with your consent, also allows full visibility of care at any time for you and your loved ones. It’s a great way of providing added reassurance that you’re receiving the highest quality care.
