Resources

How care usually starts in Richmond Hill

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 Details are generalized and nothing identifying is included — we do not publish information about the people we care for.

Waiting for long-term care

Placement was months away and the family were told to manage in the meantime. Six hours a day made “the meantime” manageable, and in the end he stayed at home rather than moving at all.

A caregiver who had stopped sleeping

Overnight wandering had been going on for weeks before anyone called. Evening and night support changed the household within days — for the caregiver as much as for her mother.

A parent alone in a large house

Bayview Hill, a quiet street, and no driving. Four hours a day covering meals, medication and company.

What this looks like in practice

Most families in Richmond Hill 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 Mackenzie Health — Mackenzie Richmond Hill Hospital.

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 above, the outcome was the same: the person stayed in their own home and received their care there.

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