Meaningful Connections for Enhanced Wellbeing
At Aken Home Care, we understand that social connection is vital for mental, emotional, and physical health. Our Companion Care services address the profound impact of loneliness and isolation that many seniors and adults with disabilities experience in Indianapolis and surrounding communities.
The Importance of Companionship
Research consistently shows that social isolation significantly increases health risks, comparable to smoking 15 cigarettes daily. Our companion care provides more than just a friendly presence—it creates meaningful relationships that contribute to overall wellness, cognitive stimulation, and quality of life.
