Support Isolated Seniors

Senior Companion Services

Connecting Older Adults with Friendship, Support & Care

Seniors in Service offers free companion programs across Tampa Bay that bring friendship, comfort, and support to older adults. Through phone calls, home visits, and small group activities, volunteers provide meaningful connection that brightens each day and offers peace of mind to families. Loneliness can harm seniors’ health, but compassionate companionship makes a lasting difference — helping older adults stay independent, emotionally strong, and connected to their community.

The Impact?

Mike, a veteran, was used to handling things alone. When he joined Health Buddies, he didn’t expect much until Lee started calling. “He didn’t push,” Mike said. “He just kept showing up and listening.

Over time, their conversations became a lifeline. Lee helped Mike open up, find support, and connect with veteran resources he never knew existed.

For the first time in a long time,” Mike said, “I felt like someone actually cared.
