Care Companions Testimonials
Since my involvement with the Unity Care Companion program began, retirement has been so greatly eased for me. After I retired and began living alone, however, I had no help. I want to live independently, beyond the fetters
of a managed lifestyle, but I needed help with those details. I was delighted to discover that such help is being offered by the folks at Unity Hospice, of all places. They had developed a new program to serve those like me: folks at the beginning of their experience as an elder but joyfully far from needing Unity's original hospice service. My caregiver, Chris, takes care of all the details: the laundry, the meals, the prescriptions, the calendar, all the details. She's always a breath of fresh air, always a pleasant refreshment on a rainy day.
