The family has additional caregivers in place and is now looking for a lead companion to manage household logistics while providing steady, thoughtful leadership within the home. This role combines operational oversight with genuine involvement in the care and companionship that enhances our loved ones’ quality of life, creating a balanced approach that supports both practical needs and emotional well-being.
