- Clients are able to ask for help without feeling like they are burdening their friends or family
- Having a neutral person who clients can talk to honestly about their feelings and situation
- Someone who can help clients explore their options so that they feel they are making informed decisions for their life and their care
- Respite for family members during visits
- Companionship, someone who will regularly check-in and see how they’re doing
- Having the reassurance that someone who cares is there to help
- Decreased feelings of overwhelm, for the individual and the family
- Greater community resilience – caring for our elders knowing that we in turn will be cared for
