Home care in Delta

Delta is three communities, Ladner, Tsawwassen and North Delta, separated by farmland and Burns Bog, and where you live changes how care works. Delta Hospital is in Ladner, on Mountain View Boulevard, with a 24-hour emergency department, inpatient beds and a residential care unit. Families in Ladner and Tsawwassen mostly deal with Delta Hospital, while many North Delta homes are closer to Surrey Memorial Hospital. The distances between the three communities are longer than they look on a map, so a caregiver's route is part of how we set visit times. Tsawwassen also has the ferry terminal to Vancouver Island, which helps relatives who come over from Victoria to share the care.

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.

Questions about care in Delta

We live in North Delta. Which hospital will we use?

It depends on the reason for the visit. Delta Hospital in Ladner is the community hospital for Delta, but North Delta homes are often closer to Surrey Memorial Hospital in Whalley. Public home support works the same either way: start with Fraser Health at 1-855-412-2121.

Can a caregiver drive my mother to appointments outside Delta?

Yes. Rides and company at appointments are part of companion care, including trips through the Massey Tunnel to Richmond or Vancouver. Book appointments outside rush hour when you can, because the tunnel backs up.
