At ComForCare Canada, we believe aging at home should be safe, comfortable, and empowering. Our private elder care services provide personalized, non-medical support that allows older adults to maintain independence and dignity — while receiving the care they need, right where they feel most at ease.
Elder care refers to a range of non-medical, in-home support services for aging adults who need help with daily activities. This may include assistance with personal hygiene, mobility, meal preparation, or simply having someone to talk to.
In Canada, care services for older adults are generally not covered by the public healthcare system, which makes private care an essential option for families seeking consistent, reliable support for their loved ones.
Families often explore care for older adults when a loved one begins to experience physical or cognitive decline, struggles with routine tasks, or becomes increasingly isolated. The goal is to help aging adults live well at home — with safety, companionship, and compassionate attention.
Home care isn’t just about assistance — it’s about giving families peace of mind, supporting independence, and preserving quality of life. If you’re wondering why care for older adults plays such an important role in today’s aging society, our article on why care services matter explores the deeper impact of in-home support.

More than 90% of Canadians over the age of 65 want to remain in their homes as they age — and home care makes that possible. Staying at home offers more than just familiarity and comfort; it helps preserve independence and reduces the emotional strain that can come with relocating to a care facility.
For many families, the real question becomes: Can we continue supporting our loved one at home, or is it time to consider outside help? If you’re weighing these options, our guide on recognizing the signs it may be time for care can help you identify the moments when additional support becomes essential.
And if you’re unsure whether in-home care is the right alternative to assisted living or long-term care, you can explore the differences in our article on home health care vs in-home care.
Making a decision about care is never easy — but it doesn’t have to be overwhelming. Start by considering your loved one’s physical and cognitive needs, their preferences, and how much support they require on a daily or weekly basis.
Whether you’re looking for a few hours a week or continuous care, we’ll help you create a plan that works for your family.
Home care is typically a private-pay service in Canada. While provincial healthcare programs may cover certain medical needs at home, non-medical support, like help with bathing, mobility, and companionship — is usually not included.
We understand that cost is a concern, and we’re here to provide guidance and flexibility. Visit our resource page to learn more about what to expect:
