- Seeking those who want to visit with adults who are lonely and want some companionship.
- You would visit patient in private home or a facility (where ever they are residing).
- Casual dress code (still professional)
- Once you return the application, you and I would meet for coffee or a cold beverage to have an introduction. I am guessing you are wanting to visit for the opportunity to be a companion, it is very important that we offer you a chance to make a good connection. If you have goals as well, we can help to accomplish those goals.
- We will then have a meeting with the patient to make sure that both you and patient are comfortable with the visits (some families would like a phone call after the visit to inform on how patient responded to visit, if you are visiting in a facility).
