What Is Home Care?

Canada has many options for seniors who have trouble living on their own. In the past, seniors would relocate to nursing homes and residential care homes so they can receive around-the-clock support. But over time, more and more seniors have started preferring to live out their golden years at home. So what choice is right for them?

Home care is increasingly popular because seniors and others who need assistance are able to maintain their independence, continue to live according to their habits and preferences, and maintain existing social and community ties.

However, finding the right option for in-home senior care can be difficult. Many families offer to be their loved one's caregiver, but this may not be the best option if family members have other obligations or their loved one's care needs become too advanced. If this sounds like your situation, consider professional home care from Senior Home Care by Angels. We've been helping seniors get the support they need while staying independent for many years, and we can help your loved one, too.
