It brings together the resources of the public and private sector; caring and curing, a short-term focus with a long-term pool; and professional and companion. The deep commitment of the senior companions and visiting nurses to their patients ensures continuity of care, quality of service, and maximum functioning and independence for the patient despite limitations. It also ensures compassionate caring, heart-to-heart connections, and a holistic approach to service, with healing taking place medically, physically, socially, and emotionally. This is exactly why the senior companions and the visiting nurse associations are perfect partners. Key words: car ing, companions, home care, support
