Home care in Chilliwack

Chilliwack is spread across distinct areas: downtown, Sardis and Vedder Crossing to the south, the hillside homes on Promontory, and farming communities like Yarrow and Rosedale further out. Chilliwack General Hospital on Menholm Road handles most local hospital care, and Fraser Health's Chilliwack Home Health office is on the same road. Where someone lives makes a real difference. Downtown and Sardis are fairly flat and close to shops and clinics, so short visits work well. Promontory's steep streets and the rural east side mean more driving, and in winter a bit more planning, so longer, less frequent visits sometimes suit better. We sort that out with you at the free assessment.

Companionship to 24/7 live-in care, from a small, consistent team. Free in-home assessment: call 604-374-1927, 7am to 9pm, seven days a week.
