About us
Long Island's Trusted Elderly & Senior Care Team
SeniorCare Companions was formed in 2004 by local doctors who understand how important independent living is to seniors and offer home care for Long Island.
Since that time, SeniorCare Companions continue to pride itself on providing quality and trustworthy care to hundreds of clients.
We realize that as people age, there are certain needs that begin developing. We also realize that the family cannot always meet every need alone. That is why SeniorCare Companions was formed; to assist our clients and their love ones, and be a help and a blessing to those in need through offering home aides on Long Island and the surrounding New York areas.
The primary goal of SeniorCare Companions is to provide the highest quality home caregiving services in Long Island at the best possible price.
