COMPANIONSHIP CARE
For Joy, Rest and Connections
Sadly, many aging Australians struggle with loneliness and limited access to the activities they once loved. This can negatively impact their overall wellbeing, sense of purpose and happiness.
At Luxe Care, we recognise in home care often goes beyond routine tasks like cooking and cleaning.
Companion care can bring back a zest for life – whether it’s transport to a social event, finding a new hobby, or being a friend to those who need it.
