Across Ontario, the Ministry of Health‘s Home Care Program can bring the health services you need right to your doorstep â€" services like visiting nurses, physio and other therapies, drugs, dressings and medical supplies, laboratory services. Homemaking and mealsonâ€"wheels are purchased from local community services as needed. There is no charge, if you qualify. To be eligible you must be under the medical supervision of a doctor, and need a professional health service that cannot be met on an outpatient basis. Here‘s how it works. On the advice of your doctor, you may be admitted to the Program either from a hospital or from your home. A home care team, in consultation with your doctor, will provide the visiting service you need. Once you are well enough, you will be discharged from the program and referred to other community services as needed.
