You personally manage the requests, schedule appointments and collaborate with your caregiver one-to-one – and all the while, you’re saving on costs!

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.

If your senior family member is lonely and unengaged in their life, a companion may be just the professional they need to reactivate their social wellbeing, give them a sense of fulfillment, and provide daily mental and physical stimulation.
Caring for a loved one can be difficult and overwhelming, but when you have respite care at your disposal you can give yourself the break you deserve, while your family member still receives the care they need.

To find the most suitable form of senior care in Toronto, you can work with a care agency, explore community and government subsidized options, research and source a particular service on your own, or use the MF Homecare app, which allows you to schedule appointments according to your availability and choose your own caregivers.
