About Community Support Agencies
Community support services help you stay healthy and independent while living at home. There are many services that can be delivered in your home or available in other locations, such as a community centre. Community support services are usually delivered by people working or volunteering for a charitable or non-profit organization. Some examples of services include:
- Friendly visitor programs
- Personal emergency response systems (such as a call button on a bracelet or necklace)
- Delivered meals
- Congregate meals
- Escorted transportation
- Adult day programs
- Caregiver support groups
- and many more
We can help you get in touch with these agencies and find resources in your community that could be of help in your specific situation.
Note: For some of the services, there may be a consumer fee.
