Personal Care Homes
A Personal Care Home (PCH) provides 24-hour nursing and personal care for individuals who can no longer manage independently at home with family support and/or other community services.
There are 22 personal care homes in our region, providing several options where you or your loved one will have access to support and nursing care services based on your care needs.
Our resident-centred philosophy ripples across our vast geography and intends to support residents’ choices, help people function at their highest level and provide the best quality of life possible in a home-like environment.
