Gordon's story: Regaining independence at home
When 82-year-old Gordon was discharged from Surrey Memorial Hospital after a fall, his daughter Sherry was juggling full-time work and overwhelming care responsibilities. Exhausted and worried about another fall, Sherry faced her father's firm desire to stay in his own home, not move to a facility.
Own Chair Home Care responded within 24 hours with our "First Two Weeks Home" package. We matched Gordon with a dedicated Health Care Assistant who understood his routines, and prepared familiar, fresh meals. Our caregivers provided unhurried, three-hour visits, offering safe mobility assistance, medication reminders, and companionship.
Thanks to this personalized support, Gordon maintained his independence and recovered safely at home, while Sherry found peace of mind and relief from burnout. This is the positive difference Own Chair Home Care makes every day.
Advice from our happy clients
Don't wait for a crisis
Most families reach out only after a major hospital discharge or injury. Our happy clients wish they had started with just 3–6 hours a week earlier, avoiding immense stress, burnout, and fear.
Protecting independence
Seniors often fear losing control. Our clients share how Own Chair Home Care caregivers help seniors keep their routine, stay in their own home, and sit comfortably in their own favorite chair on their own terms, protecting their independence.
The comfort of a familiar face
Families often worry about a "revolving door" of strangers. Our clients assure prospective families that we match you with consistent primary caregivers who take the time to share tea, listen, and truly feel like extended family.
