Senior Meal Planning and Preparation in DeForest, WI

Caring Companion provides senior meal planning and preparation to seniors in DeForest, Wisconsin — planning, shopping for and cooking meals that actually get eaten — built around real tastes and dietary needs. In DeForest that often means complementing the meal programs at the DeForest Area Community & Senior Center with home-cooked food. We are a family-run, non-medical eldercare service based in Sun Prairie, and the same caregiver comes back every visit.

What senior meal planning and preparation includes

Cooking for one is one of the first things to slip. We start with what your loved one actually likes to eat, work in whatever the doctor has asked for, and then handle the planning, the grocery run and the cooking itself.

Meals can be made fresh during a visit or batched and portioned into the refrigerator and freezer with clear labels, so there is something good and ready on the days we are not there. We clean up the kitchen before we leave.

Familiar family recipes are welcome — often the meals someone has cooked for decades are the ones that bring the appetite back.

Typical help in DeForest

  • Weekly menu planning around real preferences

“In the months that we have been working together with Terri, both my husband and I appreciate how important and helpful Terri’s care for us will be in the coming years. She is a remarkable woman who sees what is needed and offers to take care of my needs. She is confident in her abilities to be there in any capacity that is needed. She is also very flexible and able to work around busy schedules to accommodate no matter what. I feel like she will never let me down.”
