We understand that the transition into a long-term care home is big a change for individuals in need of care and their families. Whether coming from a hospital or the community, we collaborate with health system partners to help make the welcome to your new home as smooth as possible.

In Ontario, Ontario Health atHome coordinates all applications to long-term care homes across the province and manages decisions about eligibility and access

  • Ontario Health atHome will assess your needs to ensure long-term care is the right care setting for you.
  • Ontario Health atHome will provide you with lists, including wait times, and other basic information about the options for long-term care homes in your community.
  • Ontario Health atHome can help you choose and apply to a maximum of five homes.
