Companionship

At Saffron Support we offer companionship to individuals in their own home.

The definition of companionship is spending time with someone or having someone to spend time with—the state of having a companion or being someone’s companion.

This statement sums up the support that Saffron Support can offer, all too often people sit alone with only the television for company. We believe that mental stimulation through brain teasers, puzzles and games can keep our customers more alert and happier with their lives.

Research shows that our brains are just as capable of learning in the second half of life as in the first. Your brain can continue to be stimulated with simple activities such as crossword puzzles, card games, sudoku, tic-tac-toe and scrabble. Choosing to do some brain activities several times a week can keep our minds sharp and able to function at a higher level. Sometimes we just need a bit of encouragement or someone to engage with us in order to try new activities or to revisit old ones. It’s never too late!

We can arrange a time where we can come into the individuals home and spend time together. We offer continuity of care so you will get to know the career that will be visiting weekly or daily.

Please get in touch to book an assessment if you would like to find out more information about companionship visits.
