We offer services to clients within the categories of physical disability, mental health and frail & elderly. Our service is available to private clients as well as those funded through Social Services. Our services help support a client’s independence in order for them to remain living at home, prevent them from having to go into a long-term care home or hospital and reduce physical or emotional stress on the client, their family or carers.
