Home care in Newmarket

Newmarket families have an advantage: Southlake is in town. The gap is rarely getting to hospital — it is the week after coming home, when publicly funded hours may not have started and the house has not been adapted yet.

How care usually starts in Newmarket

Drawn from real cases in this area. Details are generalised and nothing identifying is included — we do not publish information about the people we care for.

Home from Southlake with no plan for week one

This is the most common Newmarket call. Care starts the same day, usually six hours daily for the first fortnight, then reduced once the person is steady.

An adult child managing from Toronto

Driving up several evenings a week and slowly running down. Scheduled weekday visits are what restores the balance.

A parent alone in a Stonehaven or Glenway home

Meals skipped, medication missed, and days passing without contact. Four hours a day usually resolves all three.

What this looks like in practice

Most families in Newmarket 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, which is in Newmarket itself.

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 Newmarket we provide care

Stonehaven, Glenway, Armitage, Bristol-London, Huron Heights, Summerhill Estates, Woodland Hill and historic Main Street. Caregivers travel to the home, so care can begin where your parent already lives.

The regional hospital is here, which changes the pattern

Southlake Health serves a catchment far larger than Newmarket, so a great many discharges land in Newmarket housing: the postwar bungalows around Main Street and Davis Drive, the 1980s two-storeys of Bristol-London and Huron Heights, and the newer subdivisions at Stonehaven and Woodland Hill. Being close to the hospital gets people home faster, not more safely — the gap is the first seventy-two hours, and that is usually when we are called.

Same-day discharge from Southlake

Home by four in the afternoon with a walker, a new medication schedule and nobody available until the weekend. Care started that evening at eight hours daily and tapered.

Dementia in a bungalow off Main Street

She had been there since the 1970s and the neighbourhood was part of how she oriented herself. Six hours a day, built around a walk, kept that intact.

A son doing everything after work

He was arriving at seven each evening and leaving at eleven, then going to work. Five hours a day in the afternoon gave him his evenings back and gave his mother better care.

Most families in Newmarket 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.

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.
