When your loved one prefers to spend their final days at home, you’ll inevitably be faced with two choices; A bloated public service that will leave you with doing most of the care work, or pricey agencies that will scramble to find someone available. Either way, you have little control over who is coming, when they are coming, and how the care is provided.
You’ll arrive at an unquestionable result: something is wrong. There must be a better way.

Having the ability to choose our caregiver with MF Homecare, and see the same one regularly, has been a game-changer for my grandma. She’s built a connection with her caregiver Asifah, and it’s been amazing to see how much she has just truly flourished with this consistency.
Knowing that the same person is there every time, someone who truly understands her needs, gives my mom and I peace of mind and a real sense of stability. MF Homecare truly puts the focus on personalized care, and we couldn’t be more grateful for their services!
Constantly having to switch our schedule to accommodate the days and times when the agency could send someone for my dad was stressful, especially as a father myself and a busy business owner. Found this service online and gave it a shot. Wow what a difference! I can book multiple different caregivers on the days and time we actually need and as an added bonus I can track when they come and leave if I’m not home. And the cherry on top - we saved money.
100% recommend! Since my husband had a stroke, we’ve had Ontario public care send someone for physical therapy and help with toileting, but it’s so few and far between… I was able to supplement with some extra help from MF Homecare because their rates are much more reasonable than the big agencies. We got more help for our money and it’s made mine and my husband’s life so much easier.
Our caregivers can provide the much-needed complementary day-to-day services while your core care team focuses on medical and counselling support, and your family can focus solely on spending quality time with your loved one. This gives you the best possible care while helping you save money by not paying nursing professionals for the simpler daily tasks.

Caring for a loved one can be difficult and overwhelming, give yourself the break you deserve, while your family member still receives the care they need. Book in-home care for a day once in a while or several weeks at a time.
This depends on a number of factors. First and foremost, the care recipient must have a life-limiting condition that has come to the point where the focus of care has shifted from cure to comfort. Additionally, the patient must:

If hospice care is provided in the home and falls under routine services, the cost ranges from $150 to $200 per day. For more intensive needs and care throughout acute medical crises, the costs can be significantly higher, averaging around $1,500 per day.
At a facility, for typical in-patient hospice care, the average daily cost is around $1,000, but if only respite care is required in a facility setting to relieve family caregivers, the cost is about $500 per day.
If you simply need assistance with day-to-day caregiving or respite services, you can supplement your medical hospice care services at a lower cost with MF Homecare. Our caregivers’ hourly rates on the app range from $26 to $36 with no other fees other than taxes.
