A substantial number of adults receiving care at home live alone without family and or friend’s network. This causes isolation which in turn leads to depression and impacts generally on their wellbeing and recovery process. iAssist-NI intends to address this issue amongst others.
We tend to fill in the gap by providing a person-to-person befriending service which include:
- Home visit and sit-in.
- Companionship
- Social engagement buddy
- Coffee buddy
- Telephone buddy
- Doctor’s appointment visit
- Weekly shopping
- Flight booking
