Home Support & Resident Care

The Home Care program is based on aboriginal culture, so the family is very important. Workers are certified, and work directly with family members to give care to our elders and others in need of their services.

The first thing that is completed for a client is an assessment. The client, family, and the Home Care team agree on services to be provided, and a schedule is proposed. Services often begin immediately, and may include:

  • Help at home with bathing and bed making.
  • Therapeutic whirlpool bath.
  • Rehabilitative exercises and activities.
  • Measuring vital signs.
  • Infection control.
  • Medication monitoring.
  • Family teaching for diabetes.
