Rehabilitation and therapy

Physiotherapy, occupational therapy, speech-language and dietitian services in the home.

Community programs

Supportive housing, adult day programs, community health workers, and school and community nursing.

How it works

We match locally, because home care depends on who lives near the client.

  2. We match locallyWe look for professionals who live near your service area and fit your client mix.
  3. We verifyRegulator registration, certificates, vulnerable-sector screening and vaccination documentation your program requires.
  4. You confirm and onboardYou approve each person and run your own orientation and client-safety process.

Rural and remote coverage may take longer. We tell you plainly.

How home care is funded and overseen

Home care is funded and structured differently in each province. This shapes how providers hire, schedule and bill.

British Columbia (our home province)

Publicly funded home and community care, including home support, is delivered or contracted through the regional health authorities (Fraser Health, Interior Health, Island Health, Northern Health and Vancouver Coastal Health). Care aides working in publicly funded settings register with the BC Care Aide and Community Health Worker Registry.

Ontario

Ontario Health atHome, created on June 28, 2024 when the 14 Home and Community Care Support Services organizations were amalgamated, coordinates publicly funded home care and contracts with service provider organizations. It is a Crown agency and subsidiary of Ontario Health, and Ontario Health Teams are taking on more responsibility for home care over time.

Alberta

Home care sits within the province's continuing care system, which Alberta is reorganizing under Assisted Living Alberta (operational September 2025). Structures are changing, so confirm current contacts with your funder.

Other funders

Veterans Affairs Canada, workers' compensation boards (for example WorkSafeBC in BC and WSIB in Ontario), private insurers and private pay. Contracted providers are selected or assigned through provincial procurement, with service volume and rates set by the funder. This limits how much providers can flex pay.

Professional regulation and accreditation

Nurses and therapists must be registered with their regulator. Aides are generally unregulated, though some provinces, such as BC, have registries or training standards. Some agencies hold Accreditation Canada accreditation, which is often a contract requirement or a quality signal.

Privacy

Client records are personal health information under provincial law. Staff must follow your privacy policies.

Structure changes often. Confirm current rules with your funder.

What makes home care staffing hard

Visit-based scheduling

Split shifts, travel time and short visits make schedules hard to fill. We are upfront about what candidates want.

Rural and distance

Coverage across wide areas. We recruit locally where possible.

Retention

Aides and nurses leave for hospital or facility roles. We focus on fit and realistic expectations.

Fixed funding

Rates are set by funders. We work within your budget and tell you if the market cannot match it.

Coverage and scheduling models

Visit-based and shift-based work

From one-hour visits to full shifts and live-in arrangements (varies by employer).

Contract and relief

Cover caseloads during leaves and growth. See contract and relief staffing.

Permanent

Full-time and part-time roles through direct hire.

Typical coverage includes mornings, evenings and weekends, as clients need care across the day.

Frequently asked questions

Do you supply PSWs and health care aides for home care?

Yes, where available in your province. Aide titles vary: PSW in Ontario, HCA or care aide in BC, and CCA in Nova Scotia. Tell us your service area, visit types and scheduling windows and we will say what we can find, and how long it may take.

Can you cover rural or remote areas?

We can try. Coverage depends on who lives in the area or is willing to travel there, so rural and remote placements can take longer. We recruit locally where possible, and we will tell you plainly what we find rather than overpromise.

Does your service meet our funder's requirements?

We verify the credentials and documents you specify, such as registration, certificates, vulnerable-sector screening and vaccination records. Your contract with your funder remains your responsibility. Tell us what your funder requires and we will confirm exactly what we can check for you.

I am a nurse. Can I work visits only a few days a week?

Possibly. Many providers offer part-time and flexible schedules, though it depends on the provider, your area and the client mix. Tell us your availability and preferred days when you submit your profile, and we will say honestly what we see.

Does it cost nurses or aides anything to work with you?

No. Free for candidates. Always. Providers pay for our service. We never charge nurses, care aides or therapists to submit a profile, to be matched or to take an assignment. If anyone asks you to pay, that request is not from us.

Do you help with managed or outsourced home care programs?

See our vendor and managed programs and workforce outsourcing pages for how those services work, then contact us to discuss your program. Every program is different, so we start with a conversation about your funding, service area and staffing needs.
