Serving Orchard Park from our Stamford office

Care options in Orchard Park
Companion care, on the schedule you need
In New York we provide companion care only, and it can run by the hour, overnight, live-in or around the clock. That means company, meals, light housekeeping, errands, rides to appointments and regular updates for the family. Tell us what the days and nights are like and we’ll talk through the schedule with you.
- Hourly careHelp for the hours that are hardest, from a few mornings a week to full days. Easy to add to as needs change.
- Overnight careA caregiver who stays awake through the night hours, there when someone wakes and ready to help them settle again, so everyone in the house gets some rest.
- Live-in careA caregiver lives in the home and helps through the day with meals, routines, company and the house. Agreed rest time, including a night's sleep, is part of the arrangement.
- 24-hour careCaregivers work awake shifts, usually two 12-hour or three 8-hour shifts, so someone is up and ready to help at any hour of the day or night.
A weekday at the Senior Center
The Orchard Park Senior Center is open Monday to Friday, 8:30am to 4pm. Seniors over 55 can join exercise classes, cards and games, and the free University Express classes, and Club 99 is a free fitness program for those 60 and older. Lunch is served at noon on weekdays to Erie County seniors over 60 and their spouse, reserved by 10am on the Tuesday before.
A companion can drive your father there and home again, keep track of the lunch reservations, and be with him in the late afternoons, evenings and weekends, when the center is closed.
Rides: Going Places and Rural Transit
In Orchard Park the Going Places van is curb to curb for seniors who can't use regular transportation, and it runs from 9am to 3:15pm except Mondays. Health trips can be booked two weeks ahead and other trips one week ahead, after a brief registration. The Rural Transit vans run Monday to Friday, 8am to 4pm, on 48 hours' notice, for up to two rides a week.
A companion can drive on Mondays, after the vans stop for the day, at short notice, or whenever he'd rather not wait for a booking, and can stay with him through the appointment. Shopping and errands fit into the same visit.
