Take control of your home care services.
Today, Albertans have more freedom and power to choose their home care provider thanks to Alberta Health Services' (AHS) Client Directed Home Care Invocing (CDHCI) program. The CDHCI program increases options available to eligible home care clients, including greater choices in home care agencies and input on how their care is delivered.
Compassion Network has been an approved vendor for Client Directed Home Care services since the pilot program launched in the Edmonton Zone in 2018. We currently service both Edmonton and Calgary areas under this program. For more information about the CDHCI program, contact your AHS case manager directly.
