What we do
Our senior care services
Sonshine Companion Care provides non-medical in-home senior care in Pensacola, Pace, Milton and Pensacola Beach. That means company, meals, housekeeping, errands and rides, so your parent can keep living the way they choose. Pick one service or combine several.
Companion care
Someone to talk with, share a meal with and spend the afternoon with. Companion care also covers elderly sitter visits, so your parent isn't alone.
Homemaking
Cleaning, laundry, meal planning and preparation, shopping and errands, done the way your parent likes it.

Transportation
Rides to appointments, the store or lunch with friends. Whose car is used depends on the client, and the caregiver stays with your parent.

Overnight care
A caregiver stays through the night. Overnight caregivers are fully awake or mostly awake, depending on bed alarms, bells and your parent's needs. Hospital overnights are fully awake.

Round-the-clock help at home when someone needs to be there day and night.

What does non-medical senior care mean?
Non-medical senior care is help with everyday life at home: company, meals, housekeeping, errands, rides and medication reminders. It doesn't include nursing, wound care, injections or therapy. For medical care at home, ask your parent's doctor about a home health agency.
Original Medicare also generally doesn't pay for custodial care when it is the only care someone needs, so families usually arrange non-medical care themselves.
Also available
Ask us about errands, trip and outing planning, pet management, medication reminders, home well-being visits and packing and attending. We'll tell you plainly whether we can help.
