Family Managed Care Program

Through the Ontario Family-Managed Home Care program, eligible patients or their substitute decision-makers, receive funding to purchase home care services or employ care providers.

This offers greater flexibility and choice as those approved for Family-Managed Home Care choose their provider, determine how and when the care plan is delivered and handle all related administrative tasks including managing providers, funding and reporting requirements.

Our highly skilled PSWs, DSWs, RNs and RPNs can provide round the clock care for children with complex and non-complex care needs. Our field-staff and client care managers have extensive experience in caring for children with special needs receiving funding from the Family Managed Home Care program and can customize a care plan for your child.

Families must first have an assessment completed to determine their needs, meet the general and specific eligibility requirements for traditional home care and have a plan of service developed by Home and Community Care Support Services.
