Get Started!
As loved ones age or face health challenges, some of life's everyday activities can become a bit more challenging. You can relieve the stress of everyday tasks by asking for help from professional in-home care services.
At ComForCare North York, our home care services provide seniors and individuals with disabilities much needed assistance when daily tasks become difficult. We help by providing for daily activities and personal care in any setting they call home, whether it is a private residence, nursing facility, independent or an assisted living community.
ComForCare caregivers will assist you with transportation to run errands, get to medical appointments, attend social activities, and help with shopping. Having more flexibility with transportation, a
companion to run errands with, and assistance getting around can help individuals avoid injuries and enjoy going out more. Spending time away from the house also provides a much needed mental break for individuals that spend most of their time at home.
Our caregivers not only provide home care assistance, they also provide companionship, which can greatly improve the quality of life. Caregivers play games, read to seniors, and even go on outings with clients, depending on individual capabilities and preferences.
We know that daily tasks can become difficult due to aging, disabilities or physical limitations. We also offer services that include assistance with household chores such as laundry, dishes, meal preparation, dusting, and vacuuming. Our caregivers are here to provide assistance with any specified home chores, helping to relieve the burden on clients and their family members.
ComForCare also provides respite for family caregivers that have been providing help, which can ease the stress and allow families to have a more balanced relationship that is based on spending quality time together. With ComForCare by your side, individuals and their families can rest assured knowing that their loved ones are being taken care of and that quality of life is being maintained.

How do I determine if my loved one needs in-home care assistance?
If a loved one is having difficulties completing daily living activities, such as meal preparation, medication management, or grooming, this may be a sign that in-home assistance would be beneficial.
In-home care can also be provided on a short-term basis, such as post-hospital care, to assist when a senior’s mobility is limited while they recover from an injury or surgery.
Are in-home care services covered by insurance or Medicare?
Private long-term care insurance policies can cover some of the costs of in-home care services. The amount covered will depend on the specific provider and policy.
In Canada, Medicare does not currently cover the cost of in-home care services. However, some in-home care services are subsidized by government agencies, depending on a senior’s eligibility.
What are the common signs that indicate a senior may benefit from in-home care services?
Common signs include requiring help with daily tasks, feeling lonely or isolated, or needing regular reminders for medication. If caring for a loved one is impacting your daily routine, such as work or childcare, this could also be a sign that in-home care is a positive solution for the entire family.
Are there specific activities or tasks that in-home caregivers can assist with?
Yes! In-home caregivers can assist with several tasks depending on a senior’s needs. Examples of common caregiver duties include bathing assistance, toileting, and meal preparation. Our caregivers can also do light housekeeping and provide companionship.
For seniors with dementia, ComForCare’s DementiaWise training program equips caregivers with the necessary expertise to support a senior’s specific diagnosis.
How does the cost of in-home care compare to nursing home care in North York?
In general, in-home care costs less than nursing home care. We assist families by connecting them with funding sources to off-set the cost of in-home care, including long-term care insurance, public resources, and veteran’s benefits. ComForCare’s care plans are also very flexible, giving families total control over their care schedule to accommodate their budget.
Can in-home care services be adjusted as the needs of the senior change over time?
Yes, ComForCare’s care plans are designed to evolve as an older adult’s needs change over time. Our team is always available to discuss care plan changes or adjust a caregiver’s schedule. We strive to deliver the best personalized care plans with professionalism and compassion.
How are the privacy and confidentiality of seniors maintained when receiving in-home care?
ComForCare takes the privacy and confidentiality of seniors very seriously. We recognize our caregivers will have access to sensitive personal and medical information about your loved one when fulfilling a comprehensive care plan. Our healthcare professionals and personal support workers are held to strict ethical standards to ensure this information remains private.
Are there specialized in-home care services available for seniors with specific health conditions?
ComForCare provides specialized in-home care services for seniors with specific health conditions, including disability care, dementia care, and post-hospital care. Our team of personal support workers will devise a care plan that accommodates your loved one’s specific medical circumstances. Our staff is also trained to carry out medication reminders.
What is the process for assessing the needs of a senior and developing a customized care plan?
Once families contact us, we’ll set up a thorough in-home assessment with one of our healthcare professionals to learn about your loved one’s specific requirements. This assessment will lay the foundation for a customized care plan. We then provide ongoing support and supervisory visits to ensure our care is fulfilling their needs.
