The dark days of winter can be daunting for all of us, but they can be especially challenging for folks living alone or in specialized residences.
SeniorsTransit, a locally owned and operated accessible and assisted transportation service here in Halifax since 2018, is now offering companionship for people in their homes and in the community.
SeniorsTransit Companions goes to private homes, seniors’ facilities, specialized homes or hospitals to engage people in meaningful activities and friendship. Not just for Seniors, it offers services to anyone who would enjoy company for leisure activity, or accompaniment to outings, errands and appointments.
Whether it is doing hobbies and crafts, playing games, listening to music, or watching movies, some things are just better with good company! Companions can take folks outside of their homes too, on drives, walks or outings. Trips to the grocery store, library, theatre, art gallery, or just a drive to look at the Christmas lights without ever getting out of the car are some things that can be part of their day or evening.
SeniorsTransit Companions can also do light housekeeping, meal prep and med reminders if needed.
Consistency and Reliability are everything when hiring in home companionship. Because SeniorsTransit is on the road every day, they make sure their companions arrive even if they miss a bus or are caught in bad weather. A SeniorsTransit van will pick them up ensuring they make their scheduled appointment. This kind of “back up” gives clients and families the peace of mind they deserve.
Call 902 441 9472 to arrange your free in-home consultation and begin your path to an engaging healthier lifestyle with a SeniorsTransit Companion.
