A caregiver helping an older person up from an armchair in a bright living room — home care in Malvern, Ontario

Home care in Malvern

Malvern is a young community with an aging first generation. The people who moved in when the neighbourhood was built in the 1970s and 80s are now in their seventies and eighties, usually in the same townhouse or semi, usually with adult children and grandchildren under the same roof. Almost every call we take here starts with a family determined to manage it themselves and running out of hours.

Townhouses and semis with everything on three levels

Malvern was built in the 1970s and 80s as a planned community, and its housing is mostly townhouse blocks, semis and small detached homes with three levels: a lower entry, living space in the middle and bedrooms above. That layout is efficient and it is unforgiving — there is rarely a full bathroom on the main floor, and the stairs are enclosed and steep. Add the fact that most households have every adult working, and the practical problem is a person alone on the wrong floor for most of the day.

How care usually starts in Malvern

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 Details are generalized and nothing identifying is included — we do not publish information about the people we care for.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 townhouse with the bathroom on the top floor

Three levels, two flights, and a knee that had given out. Care at six hours a day was built around two assisted trips rather than a move nobody wanted.

A family working two jobs each

Nobody home between seven and seven, and a father with early dementia. Six hours a day covered exactly that window and the family stayed together.

Home from Centenary

Discharged on a Friday afternoon with a walker and a staircase. Care started that day at eight hours and reduced across three weeks.

What this looks like in practice

Most families in Malvern 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 Scarborough Health Network — the Centenary or General sites.

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.
