Guardian Carers provides premium services aimed at elderly parents. Loneliness is one of the main causes that affects the quality of life, especially among seniors, who may be going through a more sensitive period in their life. Many elders are simply looking for someone to chat to. That is because their families may be away from them, living busy lives or sometimes it may be due to a recent bereavement.
