Palliative Care
This program offers support and comfort at home to those needing palliative care and their loved ones through specialized nursing care that helps with symptom management, including pain control. Social support and education are also at the heart of our care.
This service is provided free of charge by specialized nurses, home health aides, and our social worker.
We work in collaboration with CLSCs to establish the treatment plan for all visits. Our role is to support the public system, so we work in partnership with it.
HOME SUPPORT
On a scheduled basis, Nova Home Care's trained home health aides help with daily activities such as personal hygiene, physical and psychological well-being, treatments, medications, and other home activities.
This service is offered to people with chronic illnesses or neurocognitive disorders such as Alzheimer's disease, multiple sclerosis, stroke, cancer, and frailty.
We offer individualized psychosocial support to family caregivers through a social worker.
Nova Home Care relies on grants from l'Appui and the Grace Dart Foundation to provide these services free of charge. These grants enable us to provide free respite to those caring for seniors.

​No medical referral is required.
Nova Home Care offers a maximum of 6 hours of services per week.
