Golden Days
Companionship for Seniors in Canberra, ACT
A familiar face for Mum or Dad
on the days you can't be there.
Most of your Mum or Dad's day is quieter than you realise.
A regular visit from a familiar face outside of the family, gives them something to look forward to and makes a huge difference to their wellbeing.
Trusted, unhurried and entirely personal, Golden Days ACT provides one-on-one personal companionship to seniors in Canberra. We visit clients in their own homes and in Aged Care homes to become that familiar face your loved one can get to know, rather than an irregular rostered carer.
Out visits entail activities such as walks, games, conversation and whatever our clients enjoy doing most with a friend.
If someone you know could do with a friendly, regular companion, please reach out for them and enquire below.
ABOUT GOLDEN DAYS
Connection is the service
Golden Days grew from a belief that there's nothing quite like having someone arrive just for you and for many seniors, it changes everything about their day.
Golden Days visit Seniors in residential aged care facilities and private homes across Canberra, ACT.
Visits might include a chat about the recent news, stories from the past or or whatever feels right on the day, a walk nearby or within the facility or a board game. After every visit, families receive a personal update via email.
For Seniors making the transition to aged care, the Golden Welcome Program offers something rare: a friendly, familiar companion during those first difficult weeks in a new residence.
Golden Days spend time helping the client find their way around, join group activities and mealtimes with confidence and settle in without feeling alone.
The result is a genuinely happy settling-in period and a confident start to this next chapter of life in a new home.
Vouchers are also available and make meaningful gifts for loved ones.
WHY FAMILIES CHOOSE GOLDEN DAYS
Peace of mind for families
Many of the clients Golden Days work with are adult children managing busy lives from within Canberra or interstate. They trust us to be the consistent, caring presence they would usually be, when we spend time with their parents.
Our cients hear from us after every visit, in the form of a short, personal note on how their parent was, what the visit entailed and how the senior parent seemed when we left. Families tell us this email is what keeps them feeling close to their elderly parents, even from a distance.
Golden Days take privacy seriously. Photographs are only ever taken with permission, are shared with family and never posted publicly or used in any advertising. Golden Days does not share personal information. This is a private, professional service, held to the highest standard.
Staff hold current Working with Vulnerable People (WWVP) registrations, National Police Certificates and First Aid certifications. Discretion and care are built into everything we do.
"Having someone we can truly trust with Mum has made all the difference. Kimberley doesn't just visit, she genuinely cares."
