Specialized
Health Matters provides skilled and extensively trained staff for those with increased care needs due to illness.
Palliative (End-of-Life) Care
Through a difficult stage, staff assists caregivers by educating and preparing them for the next steps and provide care with the utmost dignity and respect, allowing caregivers to solely focus on spending time with their loved ones, providing time to be at peace and enjoy one another. Comfort is the ultimate goal and is encouraged throughout the end stage. This service helps to lift the burden through a very difficult time.
Alzheimer’s Care
Advanced care for individuals with forms of Dementia. Activities include, providing and encouraging eating nutritious meals, monitoring and managing behavioural changes, providing stimulation through social interaction, and supervise daily activities.
Respite Care
Respite Care provides the opportunity for those who are normally primary caregivers, to attend to other life or family situations, either temporary or permanent. The purpose of Respite Care is to allot a larger amount of time to work through personal circumstances and deal with situations that require time away from the loved one. Respite Care is often utilized by families going away on vacation and needing their loved one properly attended to.
Live In
Experienced PSW’s are available for short-term, live-in requirements, staying overnight, for a few nights or weeks.

Parents Helper
While we are really passionate about Seniors, we recognize the need that younger generations often have as well. A mom about to give birth, or parents trying to manage care for a newborn or a toddler, while still feeling the need to maintain a home. Our staff are available for as little as two hours per visit to make a meal, do laundry, light housekeeping, help older children get ready for school, make lunches, care for your newborn while you have a nap.
Makes a great baby gift!
