Companionship
and Socialization for Older Seniors
Palm Beach County, Florida
Are you lonesome tonight?
Elders are “lonesome”
every night…… and maybe during the day also.
Getting older is
difficult for most people,
but for older senior adults, it
represents a gradual loss of independence and a
diminishing quality of life.
For full geriatric care management services in Palm Beach County and Broward County, FL, visit our Elder Care Consultants website.
Elder Friends is
more than home care assistance,
elder care management, assisted living
services, or a homemaker companion service. Our
Elder Friends can provide those services, but we also
provide so much more. To our seniors, elderly, and aging
adults, we provide friendship.
-
When Seniors can no
longer count on family and friends, they become more
isolated and find it difficult to enjoy the activities
that once gave them pleasure.
-
Traveling alone to visit family
becomes too difficult for the elderly, with too much planning and too
many obstacles. Vacations are no longer realistic if
there’s no one to share them with and mobility is
limited.
-
Everyday transportation becomes an
insurmountable problem when you no longer drive. Going
out at night just isn’t possible. Card players stop
playing, and lunch out becomes a hassle.
-
Friends, who were once available
for sharing thoughts and interests may be overwhelmed
by their own problems. Dining for one is problematic
and ice cream becomes dinner.
-
Days and nights are spent watching
TV and outside contact is reduced to an occasional
phone call.
-
Isolation and depression
become a way of life.
