Resources

How care usually starts in Brantford

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 Details are generalized and nothing identifying is included — we do not publish information about the people we care for.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 river valley city with steep streets and old housing

Brantford is built on and around the Grand River valley, and the grade shows up in daily life: Eagle Place, Holmedale and the streets near the river sit on slopes that are hard work with a walker and genuinely risky in an ice storm. The housing is Victorian brick around Brant Avenue and Echo Place, postwar bungalows through the centre, and newer two-storeys in West Brant. It is an older city with an older population and a lot of housing that has never been adapted.

A slope in Holmedale

She could manage indoors and could not manage her own street. Four hours a day covered everything outside the front door.

Alzheimer’s in an Echo Place bungalow

Familiar layout, familiar street, and afternoons that had become unsafe alone. Six hours a day, weighted to the afternoon, was the whole plan.

Home from Brantford General

Discharged after a hip repair into a two-storey with the bathroom upstairs. Care started that day at eight hours and stepped down over three weeks.

What this looks like in practice

Most families in Brantford 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 Brantford General Hospital, part of the Brant Community Healthcare System, with tertiary care in Hamilton.

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.

Where in Brantford we provide care

We provide care throughout Brantford, including Eagle Place, Holmedale, Echo Place, Brant Avenue, Terrace Hill, Greenbrier, Lynden Hills, Henderson Survey and West Brant. If your street is not named here, it is almost certainly still covered — call and ask.

If any of this sounds like your situation, call 1-888-507-6236 — any time, day or night — or book a free care consultation.
