Companionship Care
Our Night Care Support
Companionship care helps ensure no one feels alone. It’s about having someone there to share moments with, someone who understands and supports you.
In the UK, loneliness and social isolation are significant challenges, especially among our elderly population. Studies show that many older adults experience feelings of loneliness, with research indicating that one in four individuals aged between 50 and 80 have felt isolated at some point in their lives. Shockingly, one in three people say they lack regular companionship.
As we age, these feelings of loneliness can deeply affect our well-being, quality of life, and overall health. Left unaddressed, loneliness can lead to serious conditions like depression and anxiety disorders, particularly in the elderly.
This is where companionship care steps in. Our trained and compassionate caregivers provide more than just physical assistance; they offer meaningful companionship, helping to alleviate loneliness and keep individuals mentally and emotionally engaged. By fostering connections and providing support, we aim to enhance the lives of those we care for and promote their overall well-being.
Choose companionship care to ensure your loved ones never feel alone and receive the holistic support they deserve.
Enhancing Elderly Well-being Through Companionship Care
At Apex Healthcare Services, companionship care for the elderly is a tailored and compassionate form of support. Our focus is on providing emotional reassurance and friendship alongside practical assistance with daily tasks, all within the familiar surroundings of home.
Elderly individuals often seek companionship care because it offers them the comfort of being cared for in their own homes, accompanied by a companion who shares their interests and values. Our carefully matched caregivers become more than just helpers; they become trusted friends and allies.
Whether it’s playing games, attending doctor’s appointments, going shopping, or simply enjoying a leisurely stroll or a cup of coffee together, our companionship caregivers are there every step of the way. They provide the vital connection that keeps seniors engaged, socially active, and independent, all while fostering meaningful relationships that brighten spirits and enrich lives.
Choose companionship care from Apex Healthcare Services to ensure your loved ones receive the personalized support and companionship they need to thrive in their own homes.

Trusted by Clients and Caregivers
We have been very grateful for the care my dad has received from Apex over the last few years. The dedicated care staff, office and management team have enabled her to stay in her own home as his support needs increased. Apex have always provided him with the highest standard of care, going the extra
mile to look after her, supporting him to be as healthy and happy as possible. My dad very much enjoyed seeing his carers each day, and would enjoy chatting with them, while they were looking after him. The Apex team were always happy to adapt to her needs, and when her health situation suddenly changed, made more care available to meet his increased need for care overnight, meaning he could feel safe overnight at home.
I cannot thank Apex enough for how they looked after my father. Knowing that she had such good care, meant that we could enjoy time together as a family and know that while we were not around my mum was as safe and well looked after as it was possible for her to be.
Joyce C (Daughter of Client)
Apex have provided care services to our elderly mother since 2017. Their level of care service has always been excellent and reliable which is necessary for our elderly mother given her anxiety/stress and immobility conditions. Apex carers have been wonderful, I have no idea how they find their amazing
team but they are always ready to assist and willing to do the bit extra. To back the care team, the management and administration team are brilliant in their attention not only to the clients but also in contacting family in case of emergency, and providing extra cover at short notice. I recommend Apex to prospective clients without hesitation. Thank you to the manager, director and the staff team.

Robert O (Son of Client)
The care my partner has received from Apex has continued to be outstanding. My partner has a small team providing his care and two main carers providing the majority of the care. The carers are dedicated, patient and understanding. The carers treat my partner with the utmost respect at all times and
never rush him. They allow time for him to complete the tasks he wants to himself. Recently my partner had a rapid decline in health. Apex responded quickly to his changing needs. They liaised with Social Services and had arranged for an immediate increase to two carers per call. They ensured that at each call a familiar carer was present.
