We are here when you need us
"We provide a range of health care and support services to community members who have acute, chronic, palliative, respite or after life health care needs."
We have services in all four communities to provide home care services to eligible individuals, regardless of age, who require health services or assistance with activities of daily living.
Home and community care works with community members and provides assistance to help them stay in their homes for as long as is safely possible.
A professional assessment of your individual needs, existing or potential supports, and community resources will determine your eligibility for home care in the type and amount.
