In-home services: COVID-19 information
Effective April 6, 2023, the Provincial Health Officer provided an update on the official end of the respiratory season and many of the remaining COVID-19 Provincial Health Orders have been lifted. To learn more about these changes, please see: Acute care and hospital visitor information.
Home health provides a wide range of health care needs and personal support services to residents throughout the Northern Health region – in their homes, at clinics and other community locations. These services will complement and supplement, but not replace the efforts of individuals to care for themselves, with the assistance of family and friends.
If and when required, Home Health will assesses the need for other levels of care such as assisted living or residential care and can help with the transition to appropriate care needs, including home-based end-of-life care.
Information on eligibility, referral and applications for services can be found on the accessing services page. Information on associated costs for services can be found on the costs page.
