Access to high-quality palliative care should not depend on where you live, your diagnosis, or your circumstances. Care should follow the person—not the system.
Home and community care increasingly relies on internationally trained workers to meet growing demand. Temporary Foreign Workers (TFWs) help fill roles that are difficult to recruit for domestically.
One of the biggest challenges caregivers – and many individuals seeking care – face is navigating home and community care systems. Navigation involves understanding what services exist, determining eligibility, knowing where to start, and coordinating across multiple providers and organizations.
This advocacy event brought together CHCA members, health leaders, care providers, caregivers, and federal policymakers to spotlight the urgent need for continued federal investment in palliative care across Canada.
Home and community care is more than a service, it’s a lifeline. Every day, caregivers, providers, and policy leaders work tirelessly to ensure Canadians can live with dignity, independence, and comfort in their homes.
Established in 1990, the Canadian Home Care Association (CHCA) is a national non-profit membership association dedicated to advancing excellence in home and community care.
