We help make every day as full of meaning and hope as possible.
We help our clients stay healthy, live well and remain active. We support those in frail and failing health and we contribute to the health and improved quality of life of Canadians in their homes and communities, where they want to be.
We strongly believe that clients and their families have the right to make informed decisions about their care. We encourage them to become partners in both its planning and delivery. We ensure that every plan of care we develop responds to the unique needs and concerns of our clients and their families, including personal and cultural values.
We provide care based on need not the ability to pay.
We are a trusted registered charity who works hard to raise donations from individuals and corporations. We also receive pay-for-service fees from provincial governments; grants from federal, provincial and municipal governments and from foundations and other charitable organizations; and pay-for-service fees from community partners and recipients. More information is available in our annual reports.
