It’s not about someone hovering over you.
It’s about having the right support in place so you can stay safe, comfortable, and independent.
Day or night, trained nurses and support workers help with things like:
Medical care at home, including catheter and wound management.
Medication assistance to make sure nothing is missed.
Overnight monitoring to prevent falls, manage pain, and provide reassurance.
Personal care, like help with bathing, dressing, and moving safely.
"Imagine having a new person walk into your home every other day. It wouldn’t feel great, right? That’s why we make sure our clients see familiar faces. A little consistency makes all the difference in feeling safe and secure." – Rachael
Living with a disability or complex mental health needs can make daily tasks challenging.
Some days, things feel manageable.
Other times, you might need extra support.
That’s where 24-hour care steps in - fitting into your life, giving you the help you need, when you need it.
"Time matters. If we’re late, it can throw off an entire routine. We make sure we’re on time so our clients don’t have to worry." - Cassie

Nobody understands your needs better than you and your loved ones.
That’s why 24-hour care isn’t just about the person receiving it.
Families play a key role.
Whether it’s being involved in care decisions, receiving updates, or simply knowing a loved one is safe, support extends to those who care about you most.

Support shouldn’t take over your life. It should make it easier.
The goal of 24-hour care is to help you live as independently as possible while getting the assistance you need.
Some days, that might mean hands-on help.
Other days, it might just mean having someone nearby in case you need them.
The right support gives you more freedom - not less.
Setting up 24-hour care is easy.
Here’s how it works:
That’s normal! Care should adapt as life changes.
If you need more support, less, or just a different approach, adjustments can be made anytime.
24-hour care means never having to go through tough moments alone.
If you need medical support, help with daily tasks, or just the comfort of knowing someone’s there, the right care makes all the difference.
