Companion's primary duties:

Ensure that the user shows up for activities at the right time, in the right place and with the right equipment and clothing - and pick up the user after the activity is over.
Participate in selected activities both indoors and outdoors, to help transfer the activities to the home environment.
Provide care to the user during breaks between activities, as well as assist with leisure activities in the evenings and on weekends.
