Frequently Asked Questions
We interview and handpick Austin professionals who have an enthusiasm & dedication to companionship. Together, we create a profile with a holistic overview of their life, preferences, and experience.
Our sophisticated matching system then chooses the top profiles for each senior based on a holistic sweep of all the provided information. Then, as there is no substitute for human oversight, our team looks through them and picks the best suited companion for the match.
We offer two different models for engagement. One driven by pathways with an option to customize for individual needs, and a second to support individual needs as they arrive.
The pathways provide recommended plans where weekly engagement varies between 6 to 10 hours with 3-5 interactions/week. CaringConnections is a story in and of itself: instead of just one-offs with anyone available, we offer a full plan to make sure seniors feel as supported as possible. The frequency of interactions is flexible and can be tailored to each senior’s preferences. Most companionships involve weekly visits.
Our matching process involves a user-based profile making system. Each profile is entirely user-based: as much as you want to say, anything you want to say. You aren’t boxed into subjects, and instead we take a look at all you want to give, and pair companions & seniors together based on everything.
This is less of a profile, and more of a story. We simply use it to create compatible teams that share common ground, ensuring enjoyable and enriching interactions.
Our companions are not medically trained. They can, for instance, read to the senior what their pill bottle says, but they cannot provide medical advice.
Our mission is to connect people and be a starting point for activities. We expect that people coming into the program can both communicate and perform those activities– that said, we understand that the early stages of dementia might be the most important time for engagement. This is a factor that would be best included in a senior’s profile.
We come into each situation with a detailed plan, and measure the outcomes using after-visit check-ins for both seniors and companions. This allows us to see how the companionship is progressing, ensure safety & satisfaction, and improve over time.
