CarePro Solutions brings personal support, nursing, or companionship directly to your loved one’s home across Ontario. Services range from a few hours weekly to full 24-hour live-in care.
Say a parent needs help after a hospital stay. We can arrange short-term daily visits, then adjust as needs change.
What Is Home Care?
Home care is professional support delivered in someone’s own home. It covers personal care, nursing, or daily assistance.
It differs from facility-based care in one key way: the person stays in familiar surroundings.
A senior recovering from surgery might get daily visits for medication reminders. This avoids the disruption of moving into a facility.
Home Care Services We Provide in Ontario
CarePro Solutions offers six core services across Ontario, each built around individual needs. From companionship to 24-hour live-in support, every plan starts with your situation, not a fixed package.
A family caring for a parent with early-stage dementia might start with weekly visits. Support increases as needs grow.
Personal & Companion Care
Covers bathing, dressing, meal prep, and friendly companionship. It helps seniors stay independent at home.
A widow living alone might get daily visits for meals and conversation. This eases isolation and daily tasks.
Nursing & Complex Care
Provides skilled medical support at home, including wound care and medication management. Registered nurses deliver this care.
Someone managing diabetes might need daily insulin administration and health monitoring.
Dementia & Alzheimer’s Care
Offers specialized support for memory loss, confusion, and behavioural changes. Caregivers are trained in dementia-specific techniques.
A parent with Alzheimer’s might need structured routines and supervision. This keeps them safe and calm at home.
Palliative & End-of-Life Care
Focuses on comfort, pain management, and emotional support during serious illness. It supports both patients and families.
A family caring for a terminally ill parent can manage symptoms while staying home together.
Respite Care for Family Caregivers
Gives family caregivers temporary relief while a trained professional steps in. This prevents caregiver burnout.
A daughter caring for her mother full-time might book respite care for a weekend to recharge.
24-Hour & Live-In Care
Provides continuous support through rotating shifts or a live-in caregiver. It ensures round-the-clock safety.
Someone recovering from a stroke might need overnight supervision alongside daytime assistance.
How Much Does Home Care Cost in Ontario?
Cost depends on care type, hours needed, and whether you choose private-pay or government-funded services. Private care typically starts around $30/hour.
A family needing 10 weekly hours might blend government-funded hours with private-pay support to cover the rest.
Private-Pay | Government-Funded (Ontario Health atHome) | |
Cost | 30$/hour, billed directly | Free or subsidized based on need |
Eligibility | Open to anyone | Requires a care needs assessment |

How to Get Started With Home Care
Getting started takes four simple steps, beginning with a free assessment. Most families begin care within days of their first call.
A son arranging care after his father’s fall might book an assessment, get a plan the next day, and start visits that same week.
- Book a free in-home care assessment
- Get a custom care plan and match
- Begin care with ongoing check-ins
- Adjust the plan as needs change
Home Care vs. Retirement Home vs. Nursing Home
These three options differ in setting, independence, and level of medical support. The right choice depends on your loved one’s needs.
A parent who’s mobile but needs reminders might thrive with home care. Someone with complex medical needs may require a nursing home.
Home Care | Retirement Home | Nursing Home | |
Setting | Own home | Residential community | Licensed facility |
Level of Care | Flexible, light to complex | Light assistance, social focus | High, 24/7 medical |
Independence | Highest | Moderate | Lowest |
Typical Cost | 30$/hour | [X]–[X]– [X]–[X]/month | [X]–[X]– [X]–[X]/month |

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does home care cost in Ontario?
Costs vary by care type and hours needed, typically 30$/hour for private care. Ontario Health atHome may cover part of the cost. A free assessment gives you an exact estimate.
Is home care covered by OHIP?
OHIP doesn’t directly cover in-home personal care. Ontario Health atHome funds nursing, personal support, and therapy based on need. Private-pay fills gaps not covered publicly.
How do I apply for government-funded home care?
Contact Ontario Health atHome directly, or ask your doctor for a referral. An assessor evaluates your needs and connects you with approved providers.

Home care keeps your loved one in their own home. A retirement home offers communal living with built-in staff. Home care is often more flexible for lighter needs.
