Home First: When you need long-term care… (Fraser Health) [English] Permalink Public

Home First is a special way of helping seniors currently in the hospital whose higher health care needs would normally mean a move to long-term care. We offer extra help and support in the home to those seniors who are likely to qualify for long-term care, allowing them to stay at home. As health care needs change, moving to long-term care could still become an option. (English) Colour
