Non-medical home care in Delta
Delta is three distinct communities that happen to share a municipal government — North Delta, Ladner and Tsawwassen — and a family in one rarely thinks of themselves as living in the same place as a family in another.
Ladner and Tsawwassen in particular have a lot of long-settled households where one person has become the full-time carer for another without ever deciding to. Respite is the service we are most often asked for here, and it is usually overdue by the time anyone rings.
What we help with in Delta
Companionship and social visits
Someone to sit with, talk to and do things with — the part of the day that stops being lonely.
Appointment driving and accompaniment
More than a ride. We park, walk in, and wait with them rather than leaving them alone.
Meal preparation, including diet tracking
Proper meals cooked in your parent's own kitchen, the way they actually like them.
Coming home from Delta Hospital
Coming home from a hospital stay, with someone there for the drive, the shopping and the first evening. For families in Delta this is the call we can usually answer fastest — often the same day, and usually within 24 hours.
We collect them from the ward, drive them home, pick up a prescription the pharmacy has ready, stock the fridge, clear the walkways, and stay to get them settled on that first evening.
