If you have a caring, loving spirit and like to take an active role in helping others, you possess two characteristics that are essential to being a Comfort Keeper.

As a Comfort Keeper you’ll do more than prepare lunch or dust the furniture or help a client get ready for the day. These are important, of course, but through our unique approach to in-home care—Interactive Caregiving™—Comfort Keepers find ways to actively engage clients in life. This could include cooking favorite recipes together, reminiscing over old photos, visiting friends or attending community events, continuing favorite hobbies, taking a walk, doing puzzles.
