What do the visit notes cover?

What was done, what was eaten, how the mood and mobility looked, anything that changed. Short, factual, written for the family; they're often the first place a developing problem shows up.

Can we start small and see?

That's the recommended way in. One or two visits a week, the same caregiver, and the schedule grows only if the situation asks. No long commitment to begin.

Who it's for

Older adults whose family wants them to stay in their own home, with help. The 'eyes-on a few times a week' service that prevents the bigger crises.

Hours and schedule

Four-hour minimum per visit. Most families start with one to three visits a week and adjust over time.

Just enough hours to matter.

Hourly care in Burnaby is mostly the maintenance layer: a few visits a week that keep a Willingdon Heights apartment running and a parent on her own schedule rather than her children's. The caregiver cooks something real, handles the laundry, walks the groceries home, and pays attention, which is the underrated part. Small changes get noticed and reported early, while they're still small.
