"Kate has been very helpful. I could go on and on, I enjoy her so much. Age at Home has provided me with a companion who is reliable and perfect for me!"

In December 2019, Evie Elton, 96, began receiving visits from an Age at Home caregiver. She found a warm-hearted companion in Kate, and the timing could not have been more perfect.

When the COVID-19 pandemic hit in March 2020, the senior living apartment where Evie lives needed to restrict outside visitors, including families and caregivers like Kate. Like so many other seniors, Evie began to feel isolated from her family and she missed Kate’s companionship. Fortunately, by mid-summer, Kate was able to resume her semi-weekly visits with Evie.

Kate helps Evie with cleaning, doing laundry, making doctor visits, running errands and walking her beloved dog, Boo Boo. “I have a companion,” says Evie. “She’s reliable and just perfection! I enjoy her so much. I don’t want anyone to ‘steal’ her. I’m perfectly satisfied!”
