ORCA is a voluntary, not-for-profit organization that sets professional operating standards, and inpsects and accredits retirement residences in Ontario.  Their website offers information, pictures of accredited retirement residences, tips on how to choose the best residence for your needs, and information on the standards that residences must meet before they can become an accredited member.

This website is part of the Collaborative Seniors' Portal Network - a national project - and has been developed with the cooperation of all three levels of government, as well as numerous seniors groups and service providers.

The Ontario Seniors’ Secretariat works to improve the qualify of life for Ontario’s seniors by developing policies and programs that meet the needs of seniors and helps them to lead active, healthy and dignified lives. It also advises on the development of policies and programs across government on behalf of seniors, provides seniors with the information they need about vital programs and services, healthy lifestyles, and aging and promotes the important contributions seniors make to families, communities, and the province of Ontario. It also maintains close working relationships with seniors organizations across the province.

The resources on this Web site have been compiled by the Ministry of Health and Long-Term Health to help seniors and their families easily find health care information and other services according to their individual needs. Here, you can find information and services that are available from government and community sources as well as contact details for various organizations.
