Companion Services​

At Opal Stork Home Care, our companion services are centered around connection, comfort, and daily engagement. We aim to reduce feelings of isolation and help each individual feel seen, heard, and valued — all in the comfort of home.

Our companions bring a friendly presence, a listening ear, and a helping hand — always respecting each person’s pace, interests, and routine. Whether it’s sharing stories over a cup of tea or enjoying a quiet activity together, we’re there to brighten the day in simple, meaningful ways.

​

Companion Services may include:

  • Assist with personal hands-on care such as bathing, dressing, grooming, toileting, or feeding the client

  • Friendly conversation and emotional companionship, with time dedicated to talking, reminiscing, or simply being present

  • Shared activities such as reading, puzzles, crafts, board games, or light walks (as appropriate)

  • Meal reminders and companionship during mealtimes to promote healthy routines

  • Accompaniment during errands or appointments (non-transportation-based)

  • Help with organizing mail, calendars, and light daily planning

  • Gentle encouragement during life changes or new routines

  • A steady, familiar presence that adds comfort, consistency, and emotional ease

Companion services are all about enhancing everyday life — making it more engaging, connected, and fulfilling.
