2. COMPANIONS
FOR GRAMMY
AND GRAMPY
Mission Statement:
Getting old and being alone can be tough on all of us. Can we help you or an
elderly family member feel less lonely and isolated?
• To address the need of companionship for the elderly who are isolated and alone in the
early on stage of Alzheimer's Disease and dementia.We can not only provide the
socialization these elderly people need but can give their caregiver a break when we visit as
well.
• Target population would be within 20 miles of the agency office located inWaterbury,
Connecticut.
• The companion staff would be made up of juniors and seniors in high school and college age
students who have a keen interest in the human services field or a major that they are
studying.
• I aim to develop a friendly companionship between our companions and the elderly they
serve.Weekly visits that include friendly conversations over coffee or tea or a good snack,
playing a board game or doing a puzzle, looking at old pictures, taking a walk,watching a
movie can make a world of difference in an elder client's week.

Political, economic, social, and technological factors that affect my clients.
• POLITICAL:Unfortunately,this companion service would not be
covered under Medicare.
• ECONOMIC:I would consider for the elderly that could not afford to
pay for this service to reach out to some local churchesor outreach
programsthat could help absorb the cost of the service for these
individuals.
• Social andTechnological:This would require affiliating with senior
housing and 55 and older communities,churches,and healthcare practices
that deal with the elderly specifically,senior centers,and outreach
programs
4. COMPANIONS
FOR GRAMMY
AND GRAMPY
• Cultureand Diversity
• How will I be inclusive? My staff will consist of differentsocial, economic
and cultural backgrounds.I would interview my employees and have them
share there likes, dislikes and beliefs with me.The community my program will
serve is elderly people who remain in their homes but can still care for
themselves without assistance.These people are lonely,maybe because they
have no family or close friendsthat live nearby.Many seniors fall under the
description that there is a great need for companionship.I would access their
needs through their feedback responsesof those who want the service and
then plan for the staff to get the job done as we start to grow.
• How will culturaldiversity impact my program?We would have to
interview our clients with a questionarrie developed that our staff would also
be required to anser and try and match them up accordingly.I would want to
match up similar cultural backgroundsand personalities with each other to
make for a smooth client/staff member relationship.
5. COMPANIONS
FOR GRAMMY
AND GRAMPY
The theory I plan to apply for my program is classical theory. I chose this because I want my employees
to share their experiences of what works for them and what does not. All my employees will be treated
equally. It is essential to do this so we may give positive feedback and ward off any feelings of
discouragement. I would plan monthly two-hour meetings for everyone to come in and share what is
happening with their clients. It is essential to share this information because we are all different and might
use other techniques to handle certain situations that can benefit all of us.
Staff would be scheduled with clients according to their personality and cultural backgrounds. Each
client's file will include their likes and dilikes for my staff to review. My staff will have a form to fill out after
each client visit to document what they did with the client during their visit. Our goal is to bring them some
much needed joy and happiness into their life.
As the business grows , I could then add a support staff to handle payroll and operational tasks that I
would designate to them. I will keep track of my team and effectively delegate and coordinate
their workwith time management and a schedule. I will coordinate a schedule for all my clients first and then
schedule my staff accordingly using a couple of floaters to fill in for staff when absent. Our monthly meetings
will assist in making it a seamless transition for the floater or possibly someone new taking over for a
previous staff member. It could also help alleviate any stress it might cause the client as the staff member
would be somewhat knowledgable of the client's likes and dislikes.
