It encompasses a wide range of services, including personal care, companionship, and medical support.

Home care services can range from occasional help to full-time care, depending on the individual's needs.
In Ontario, government support for home care services is typically available for individuals who meet certain eligibility criteria set by the province. Qualification for government-funded home care services is often based on factors such as age, income level, medical needs, and disability status. Eligibility assessments are usually conducted by local health authorities or government agencies responsible for administering home care programs.
Yes, home care expenses are tax deductible through the Ontario Seniors Care at Home Tax Credit. This refundable personal income tax credit is designed to assist low-to moderate-income seniors with eligible medical expenses, including those that support aging at home or in one's place of residence.
This is to ensure that the account is created by a genuine person and is ready for bookings right away. You are NOT charged until you schedule an appointment and you can cancel up to 24 hours in advance to get a full refund.

Nursing home care is often considered for individuals who need more intensive care and supervision than what can be provided at home.
