Ontario Long-Term Care

Ontario’s long-term care system provides specialized housing and healthcare services for seniors and individuals with chronic or complex health needs. These facilities offer 24/7 nursing care, assistance with daily activities, and social support to ensure safety and well-being. Funded primarily by the government, they serve residents who require a higher level of care than can be provided at home. Access is typically coordinated through assessments, with the goal of supporting independence while ensuring appropriate medical and personal support. The system aims to improve quality of life for residents and provide peace of mind for families.
