Quick Care Connect provides a type of companion care that is shorter in duration than home healthcare.  Our goal is to provide short-term assistance that does not require a contract or commitment. We would like to help your family member adjust to a new or temporary situation.  This could mean one visit or many within a short period of time. Although some of our Personal Care Assistants have a medical background, the services we provide are oriented toward convenience and safety, not medical rehab or recovery. However, it was Florence Nightingale who determined that a clean environment promotes wellness and Virginia Henderson, another nurse theorists, who proved that dignity and respect are integral parts to one's health. 

Companion care is most often just that: friendship and support for a person, generally someone elderly or impaired. The support helps the person to maintain a level of independence that would be difficult without this service. While this is not technically "health care", emotional and physical support can help promote health and safety. While some insurance companies are recognizing the benefit of companion care, most do not reimburse for this service. Those services that are covered are general only covered when provided in conjunction with home health care. So, if a person does not have a medical need for home health care, he or she probably will not have coverage for companion care.
