Our difference starts with our Total Healthcare philosophy: to address the challenges facing our aging population in a revolutionary new way.

Our clinical team looks beyond the obvious needs of our patients to become advocates for their physical, mental and emotional well-being. Whether you are faced with a new diagnosis, recent surgery, chronic health problem or a long-term illness, we can provide highly skilled and compassionate care.

Our Total Healthcare programs provide specialized services to promote optimum health and help keep you independent for as long as possible. Our Registered Nurses and other staff receive advanced training and credentialing. Each patient’s skilled Total Healthcare team is coordinated by a nurse care manager who works closely with the patient’s own physician to achieve the goals of treatment.

Other members of the home-health team include: physical, occupational and speech therapists, to increase the patient's strength, mobility, safety and communication; medical social workers to identify resources and offer counselling and support; dieticians, and other specialists.

Rehabilitation Services Surgery and various medical conditions can cause difficulties with your ability to walk, take care of yourself, communicate and do the things you normally do. Almost Family Services provides a complete range of therapy services that will help you maximize your ability to be safe and independent. Our experienced professionals are specially trained in these fields:
