Our in-home care program offers specialized, nurse-monitored personal care for individuals living with dementia. To prioritize dementia and memory care, we provide personalized and safe assistance in the comfort and familiarity of our client’s homes. Our highly trained care managers will come visit you in your home to provide assistance with grooming, toileting, mobility, memory care, and ensure exceptional dining and food choices.

We adapt our services to cater to each individual’s needs. As an alternative to assisted living facilities, our services enhance the quality of life by encouraging clients to maintain daily routines and independence, providing coping strategies for challenging behaviours like wandering and agitation. For a comprehensive understanding of our services, we invite you to a free one-hour in-home assessment with a Choice Homecare Ottawa care manager, addressing any concerns and customizing dementia care plans.
