Companions & Homemakers® is Connecticut’s most trusted home care agency, having earned that reputation by providing quality in home care to thousands of older residents in communities all across the state since the business was founded in Connecticut in 1990.

According to an AARP study, 90 percent of people age 65 and over would prefer to stay in their own homes as they get older — and not go to a nursing home or assisted living facility. Aging in place is defined by the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) as "the ability to live in one's own home and community safely, independently and comfortably, regardless of age, income or ability level."

Companions & Homemakers® serves residents in every community in Connecticut, and has been dedicated since its founding to assisting families in preserving dignity through independence and the comforts of home. With consistently high customer satisfaction ratings and numerous industry awards, Companions & Homemakers® is Connecticut’s leader in homecare and companion services.
