A small number of clients are attending the day center each day. In addition to some onsite attendance at each centre, CHOICE teams continue to provide outreach care and support to clients and families through home visits, virtual visits and phone calls. We are reviewing all client care needs and scheduling program attendance if required. We will continue to work with all of you at this time. For any questions or updates, contact the program you attend directly.
The Comprehensive Home Option of Integrated Care for the Elderly (CHOICE) assists seniors to continue living independently and in their own home longer by managing all their health requirements.
Clients attend one of three day centres, one to five days a week, and receive services which include ongoing medical, psychological and social support.
Clients health needs are continually assessed and monitored.
Transportation to and from the CHOICE day centre is provided.
Clients may stay overnight at one of the centres while they receive treatment for short-term illness.
Respite care is available so home caregivers can receive a break while the person they care for stays at one of the centres for a few days.
