I don't think is sounds useless at all. We are starting to look into the availability of this type of service for my mother that lives independently out of state.

Medication organization, refills, tracking is something that we will need soon. It isn't just prescriptions but also otc meds.

Driving to appointments and activities like daily mass, physical therapy shoe shopping. It isn't just driving there. It is making sure mom gets safely inside.

Meal prep. When I go visit I make up freezer meals. Sometimes mom will cook from scratch sometimes she is so exhausted by dinner that warming up a meal is all she can manage.

Random times: assisting with calling companies like insurance, utilities, cable. These phone calls usually include a lot of waiting and navigating automated systems that are confusing to elderly with hearing issues.

Assisting with changing accounts after the death of a spouse. Getting my dad's name off of all of the utility accounts took hours.
