Companion” or “sitter” means a person who spends time with or cares for an elderly, handicapped, or convalescent individual and accompanies such individual on trips and outings and may prepare and serve meals to such individual. A companion may NOT provide hands-on personal care to a client. At Accountable Home Care, we refer only licensed caregivers that are either home health aides or certified nursing assistances that can offer companionship AND hands-on personal care.
