Are Christwood’s companion and personal care services available to the general public?
Yes. Christwood Companion Services brings exceptional non-medical home care services to individuals age 55+ and serves both Christwood residents and adults in the greater Northshore Community in the comfort of their own homes.
When should a person consider assisted living?
If someone you love is struggling with daily activities such as bathing, dressing, cooking, taking medication, housekeeping, or climbing stairs, it may not be safe for them to stay in their home. These conditions often lead to feelings of isolation and depression. If you’re concerned about a loved one, see their doctor for an evaluation and start researching options for assisted living.
