In many parts of Canada, eligible seniors and adults may receive approved care dollars through a
client-directed care home care program. These programs are designed to give individuals and
families more choice and control over their home care services.
Instead of having every detail of care arranged for you, client-directed care may allow you to
choose the home care provider that best fits your needs, preferences, schedule, and values.
Comfort Keepers® can help you use your approved care funding and provide the invoicing to
receive compassionate, dependable support at home, while helping you maintain independence,
dignity, connection, and joy.
What is client-directed care?
Client-directed care gives eligible individuals more say in how their care is delivered. Depending
on the program available in your province or region, funding may be provided directly to the
client, family, or designated representative to help arrange approved home care services.
This means you may be able to choose a trusted home care provider, such as Comfort Keepers, to
deliver the support you need at home.
Because programs vary by province, region, and individual eligibility, families should confirm
current program details, covered services, and approval requirements with their provincial health
authority, case manager, care coordinator, or program administrator.

Using your approved care funding with Comfort Keepers
If you have been approved for a client-directed care program, Comfort Keepers can help you
explore how home care services may fit your care plan.
The process may include:
1. Confirming your approved program, funding amount, and service requirements
2. Discussing your care needs, goals, preferences, and schedule
3. Creating a personalized care plan
4. Matching you with a compassionate caregiver
5. Providing ongoing support and communication as needs change
Program rules differ by province and region, so families should verify whether Comfort Keepers
services are eligible under their specific funding program before starting care.
A better way to receive care at home
Client-directed care gives families the ability to make choices that reflect what matters most. For
many people, that means choosing care that supports safety, independence, comfort, and quality
of life at home.
At Comfort Keepers, we believe care should do more than help with daily tasks. It should help
people stay connected, engaged, and uplifted.
