Home care in Aurora
Aurora has a lot of long-settled families in large homes — mature streets around Yonge and Wellington, and newer estate pockets east of Bayview. Most calls here start with a change in a parent who has lived in the same house for thirty years.
How care usually starts in Aurora
Drawn from real cases in this area. Details are generalized and nothing identifying is included — we do not publish information about the people we care for.
A fall that changes the calculation
Stairs that were never a problem suddenly are. Care usually starts the next morning, focused on bathing, stairs and evenings.
One spouse quietly caring for the other
Very common in Aurora’s older neighbourhoods, and the person carrying it rarely calls themselves a carer. Their own health is usually what gives first.
Dementia progressing at home
Familiar surroundings genuinely help. The risk is the hours when nobody is there, which is where a consistent daily routine matters more than anything else.
What this looks like in practice
Most families in Aurora start with four to eight hours of care a day. Care usually begins within a day of the first call, and the same day where someone is coming out of hospital — typically Southlake Health in Newmarket.
We support people living with dementia and Alzheimer’s, ALS, paraplegia and reduced mobility, and older adults who simply need help to manage the day. In almost every case, the outcome is the same: the person stays in their own home and receives their care there.
Where in Aurora we provide care
Aurora Village, Aurora Highlands, Aurora Estates, Bayview Wellington, Regency Acres, Hills of St Andrew and Bayview Northeast. Caregivers travel to the home, so care can begin where your parent already lives.

A heritage core and a wide ring of newer two-storeys
Aurora’s older streets around Yonge and Wellington have century homes with steep original staircases, small bathrooms and additions that made sense at the time. The ring built since the 1990s — Bayview Northeast, Aurora Grove, the estates east of Bayview — has the opposite problem: modern, comfortable, and designed on the assumption that stairs would never be an issue. Southlake Health in Newmarket is close, which shortens the trip and does nothing about what happens once someone is home.
A century home and a hip replacement
The staircase was original, narrow and not going to change. Care started at six hours a day for the recovery and stepped down to three.
A mother with Alzheimer’s, a daughter in Vancouver
Three time zones and a lot of guesswork. Four hours a day on weekdays, plus a written note after each visit, ended most of the guesswork.
Burnout in a household of four
She had a full-time job, two teenagers and her father living in the basement suite. Respite of five hours a day, three days a week, was what kept the arrangement viable.
What this looks like in practice
Most families in Aurora start with four to eight hours of care a day. Care usually begins within a day of the first call, and the same day where someone is coming out of hospital — typically Southlake Health in Newmarket.
We support people living with dementia and Alzheimer’s, ALS, paraplegia and reduced mobility, people recovering from a stroke or a fall, and older adults who simply need help to manage the day. In almost every case above the outcome was the same: the person stayed in their own home and received their care there.
