The care and company you need to be at home
Independence
It can be hard to admit that aging makes certain things more difficult. Asking for help doesn’t mean giving up independence – it means preserving it. Receiving assistance from someone who understands how your loved one wants to live is the first step.
Independent Seniors™ is a non-medical in-home care and companionship service that unites retired caregivers—or Junior Seniors—with older seniors that require assistance—or Senior Seniors—to ensure that they continue to live long, happy lives in their own homes.
Just like a friend, Junior Seniors will help around the house, keep appointments, shop, accompany your loved one to special events or just provide engaging companionship.
We take the time to match your loved one with the right Junior Senior whose values and ideals are just like theirs.
How can we make your life better
At Independent Seniors™, we want to ensure that we have a full understanding of who your loved one is and how they want to live so that we can supply the exact services they need.
Our Junior Seniors want to provide your loved one with the considerate and compassionate care they need to stay independent, safely and comfortably in their own home.
