Our Services

Companion Care Services
Loneliness and social isolation are among the most serious challenges facing older adults today. Our companion care services are designed to provide meaningful connection, emotional support, and a consistent caring presence in the lives of our clients. Social connection is one of the most important factors in the health and well-being of older adults. Research published by the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine indicates that social isolation and loneliness are associated with increased risk of serious health conditions including heart disease, depression, and cognitive decline.
Our companion care services are designed to provide meaningful human connection, emotional support, and a warm, caring presence in the daily lives of our clients.

Understanding Our Scope of Services
Home Care Services of South Florida is registered with the Florida Agency for Health Care Administration as a Homemaker and Companion Services provider. This means we are authorized to provide non-medical support services only.
There is an important distinction under Florida law between homemaker and companion services and personal care or home health services. Personal care services such as bathing, dressing, toileting, and medication assistance fall under a different category of licensure and are provided by licensed home health agencies or certified nursing assistants working under medical supervision.
We want every family to fully understand this distinction so they can make the right choice for their loved one’s level of need.
Services We Do NOT Provide
- Bathing, showering, or sponge baths
- Dressing or undressing
- Feeding assistance
- Toileting or incontinence care
- Transferring or repositioning (moving from bed to chair, etc.)
- Medication administration or reminders
- Wound care or dressing changes
- Nursing or medical assessments
- Any hands-on personal care services

If your loved one requires personal care or medical services, we encourage you to contact a licensed home health agency or speak with their physician. We are happy to provide a referral if we are not the right fit for your situation.
