Home and Community Care Service

Home and Community Care

Home and community care services are designed to enable patients to receive care at home rather than in a hospital or long-term care facility, allowing them to live as independently as possible.

With Community Care, patients can benefit from a suite of adaptable and individualized services that make staying at home a viable and comfortable option. A bit of help with daily activities can go a long way, allowing individuals to maintain their independence and enjoy a higher quality of life in their own homes.

Personalized Support for Independent Living

Help at home can look different for everyone. For some, it might mean getting assistance with shopping and cooking. For others, it could involve personal care, such as help with bathing, dressing, and getting in and out of bed. It might even include home modifications to improve safety and mobility.

Community health nurses play a vital role in this process. They work closely with individuals and their families to manage conditions, maintain health, and address any current health issues. While supporting the patient’s caregiver, community nurses also strive to promote and preserve the patient’s independence, safety, and overall healthy lifestyle.
