Our Home and Community Care Department

Our caring, professionally certified staff provide a range of services for people of all ages who need care in their homes in the Nass Valley.

Home and Community Care Services can help seniors and people with complex medical conditions to live safely and comfortably in their own homes for as long as possible. We support people managing chronic health issues, recovering from a medical setback, or with special needs or a disability. As well, we offer respite services to provide caregivers with much-needed time off.

Our staff develop relationships with clients based on respect and trust. The program incorporates Nisga’a culture and supports clients in using their wilp in the process of palliative care and dying.

How the program works

If you or someone you know could benefit from our services, contact us at 250-633-5025 or toll free at 1-888-233-2212 Ext: 5025. Anyone can request services if they have discussed it with the individual. Doctors, nurses, and other medical professionals also refer clients.

When we receive requests and referrals, we set up a home visit. A nurse will then complete an assessment and intake form.

Based on the assessment, we create a care plan and schedule. Services can begin immediately, depending on our staffing capacity. Staff monitor the client’s status and communicate with authorized family members and health professionals to modify the plan of care as needed.

Home care services are provided only to clients who wish to receive it.
