COMING SOON – ELDERCARE AND COMPANIONSHIP SERVICES
The cost of long-term care services for our venerable population is often expensive and assistance subpar. In far too many circumstances our loved ones are encourage to move from their beloved homes and sacrifice their freedom to be stuck in cramped living spaces and treated like children to maximize corporate profits. We believe there is a better way.
Community Oriented Services for Helping (COSH) offers Eldercare and Companionship Services for individuals who need a little extra assistance and would like to maintain independence in their own homes. These services include everything from regular in-home companionship visits to cleaning to transportation.
