Normally volunteers visit once a week, for an average of 2 hours a visit, but can stay for a shorter time if the Neighbor requests shorter visits.
We do not charge for our services. We are blessed to receive donations to live out God’s unifying love to the dear neighbors around us. Caregiver Companion primarily exists on people willing to donate, businesses or foundations support, individuals who name this non-profit in their will, or an occasional grant. If you or your family desires to give and is able to, we are thankful for any contribution. Any amount, large or small, is much appreciated.
Yes, but only after an assessment has been done. We require at least seven days’ notice for all transportation requests. This allows the office staff to have the needed amount of time to communicate your need to our volunteer and confirm a driver for you.
No. Services for driving extend only within Tippecanoe County.
Yes—volunteers will need a detailed shopping list and some form of payment for your groceries. They will then shop and deliver your items to you into your home, but can not help put them away. You may also ride along with the volunteer if you are able.
In Tippecanoe County, we will refer you to the Meals on Wheels Program (765-429-6325).
This is not something that we can provide. Please see our referrals for other agencies that may be able to help.
Our volunteers are not trained in anything other than our policies and procedures, so they can not assume the risk associated with transporting someone to/from a procedure or an emergency visit. Please refer to family member, close friend, or other resource for this type of service.
We are able to provide transportation to necessary appointments like doctor’s appointments, picking up prescriptions, grocery shopping, or other necessary errands.
