Companion-Respite Care
This cost-effective program (for local area residents) allows the caregiver much needed personal time for themselves, out of the house, getting a break, while the client receives supervision through activities, a light meal (if needed) and companionship. The program is managed by a companion coordinator with an experienced staff of companions available to meet the needs of each client. For more information, call April Hunt at 978-788-6174 or ahunt@ChelmsfordMA.gov.

We provide a supervised, caring atmosphere Monday through Friday from 8:30 AM - 3:00 PM for eligible seniors, while also providing respite and peace of mind for caregivers. Participants receive individual and group attention in a structured setting. Our program of activities and exercise builds confidence and self esteem while providing fun and socialization for our clients.
