Sometimes we need extra help around the house. Whether you’re a new mother, a caregiver needing respite, recovering from surgery, or need help preparing nutritious meals.
We provide short and/or long-term support and can assist with physical and/or emotional limitations that impact daily living. We believe that every individual should have the opportunity to remain as independent as possible.
Our philosophy is collaborative, and we connect with other service providers, Alberta Health Services and family members to ensure that we are all working together to meet the needs of every individual.
Our services include:
- Personal care
- Homemaking
- Medication assistance
- Companionship
- Meal preparation
- Accompaniment to medical appointments, shopping and community activities
- Caregiver respite
- Advocacy and emotional support
Our Home Support Workers are screened and trained in personal caregiving or as Health Care Aides and supervised by an LPN.
