Here’s what families are saying about Friends of the Family
Senior Care Service:
“Because of the help my mother was able to stay in her home for as long as possible. When this was no longer possible they supported her emotionally and physically with moving to a retirement home. Friends of the Family still visits, so my mother’s days are enriched and happy with her favourite activities.”
-Barb R.
“The one-on-one time helps with her social needs. The help with my mother’s appointments has really lessened the strain on the rest of the family.”
-John D.
“We don’t know what we would do without Friends of the Family. They provide consistent company and friendship and an amazing amount of flexibility. They always customize their activities to mom’s specific needs and mom thinks of them as her circle of friends.”
-Ellie C.
“The “Friends” were there when my very independent mother moved from her home into a retirement home. This past winter she moved into a nursing home. Once again Friends of the Family made this transition much easier for both mother and the family. The “non-relative” voice often helps soften some necessary decisions. The “friends” keep in close touch with the family.”
- Steve L. & Family
“Knowing that there is time during the week that Mom will have quality time and structured activity to look forward to has been a blessing. The best part is she sees this time as a visit from a friend who truly cares for her not as an employee coming because she is paid.”
- Janice M.
“It’s a great comfort to me to know that someone from Friends of the Family visits her in LTC a couple times a week, for extra stimulus and variety in her life.”
- John T.
“These visits assist me greatly in caring for my Mother, giving me peace of mind to be free to do other things on visit days. It is a welcome service that I hope will grow for many others.”
