    What is home support?

    [Translate to English:] Maison

    The professional interventions that are offered can be preventive, curative and palliative. These services include assessment, treatment, education and follow-up activities.

    These activities are intended for people of all ages, as well as their loved ones, who have one or more temporary or permanent disabilities and who must receive some of the services at home.

    Services offered:

    • technical assistance required at home (equipment, accessories and technical aids such as walker and commode)
    • medical services
    • nursing services (dressings, injections, monitoring of general condition, supervision of medication)
    • home help services (hygiene care, help with getting up, help with dressing, administration of medication)
    • pharmacy services
    • psychosocial services (social reintegration and socialization, adaptation to changes, screening for situations of neglect and abuse)
    • occupational therapy and physiotherapy services (travel and positioning safety, post-fracture rehabilitation)
    • nutrition services (swallowing disorders, anemia)
    • respiratory services
    • services for caregivers (respite, support group)

    Community and citizen services are also available and complementary to home support services. They include measures relating to housing, community services (meals on wheels, recreation, respite, etc.), access to paratransit, services, tax measures and benefits for people with disabilities and their caregivers, etc.

    Who can benefit?

    Any person, regardless of age, with a temporary or persistent disability, the cause may be physical, psychological or psychosocial, and who must receive some or all of the required services at home. The support is also intended for the caregivers of these people.

    Thus, anyone who, due to a disability, cannot go to outpatient services to receive their services, can receive home care and support services.

    Palliative and end-of-life care is intended for people of all ages struggling with an incurable disease that could compromise their survival, in the more or less short term. They are not limited only to people with cancer but also to people with heart, respiratory, degenerative neurological diseases and dementia.

    Palliative and end-of-life care also targets the person's loved ones, especially in terms of support, psychosocial support and respite, in all phases of illness and bereavement.
