Private Services at VHA Home HealthCare

We are a private-for-community department of VHA Home HealthCare; every dollar we make goes back to fund community health care initiatives. Whether it is a little extra support or around-the-clock care, VHA’s private services offers a range of support at home, in a long-term care facility or during a hospital stay

Clients who are already receiving care from VHA may also purchase additional hours through our Private Services. These Private Service hours are paid for by clients (and are not covered by Home and Community Care Support) but can be used as a supplementary "top up" of their regular ongoing care.

What health care services does VHA offer for private purchase? Our private services for purchase include foot care services, nursing and rehabilitation services, palliative care services, as well as personal care, meal preparation, light housekeeping, companionship, escorting to appointments and grocery shopping.

Our private services team will create a care plan that works best for you, with you, or your caregiver.
