Home Instead Senior Care
Washington County, Oregon

Dear Mike,
"...Due to my mother's physical and mental condition, finding just the right companion for her took some effort. But your office was absolutely in tune with our concerns and expectations, and continued to search for just the right "fit" for our challenging situation. A bond has formed between Debbie and my mother that is special. Even after the move to the memory care facility, the continued visits from Debbie provided focused one-on-one attention that truly enhanced my mother's life. I am so grateful that something like Home Instead exists. Your flexibility, open communication, and ability to provide top-notch staff allows me to wholeheartedly recommend you and the services your company provides."

We’ll Be There When You Can’t Be

You call her every day … you shop for her … you take care of her repairs … you drive her to the doctor and help her with paperwork. You’d like to do more, but you’ve got your job and your own family to think about, too. And yet, you worry about your mom being home by herself so many days. And you’re not alone. Nearly one in every four Americans is caring for an older adult, and the stress can take its toll.

A Healthy Solution

Washington County Home Instead Senior Care’s® seniors home companionship services not only relieve stress and worry for family caregivers, but they also provide the healthy interaction and activity that are vital for seniors in retaining cognitive abilities and physical health. Our kind and thoughtful CAREGiversSM truly enjoy working with seniors. And we find that most seniors are much more likely to accomplish tasks and participate in favorite activities when they simply have a companion with whom to enjoy them.
