The Alternative to the Nursing Home.

When a loved one requires constant supervision—whether due to dementia, risk of falling, or complex medical needs—families often feel they have only two choices: exhaust themselves providing care, or move their loved one into a facility.

There is a third option. Compassion Network Home Care's Live-In Care service places a consistent, dedicated caregiver in your loved one’s home. They sleep there, eat there, and ensure safety is maintained day and night.

The Difference is Consistency. Unlike standard home care where you might see a rotating door of staff, Live-In Care provides a stable, familiar presence. Your loved one builds a relationship with one primary caregiver who knows their routine, their preferences, and their personality.

We Are CDHCI Strategy Experts.

Navigating the Alberta Health Services (AHS) funding system, such as the Client Directed Home Care Invocing program (CDHCI), can be confusing. Families often feel restricted by their budget, forced to choose between safety and affordability.

Don't leave funding on the table. At Compassion Network Home Care, we specialize in Funding Optimization.

• We review your "Authorization for Funding" to understand your full entitlement.
• We design intelligent care plans that stretch your budget further, often providing a level of coverage that standard hourly agencies cannot match.

Specialized Support for Complex Needs

Live-In Care is not just for companionship. We are a clinical care provider equipped to support high-acuity medical needs in the home environment.

We are the preferred choice for families managing:

• ALS & Motor Neuron Disease: Staff trained in Hoyer Lifts, BiPap support, and Cough Assist devices.
• Advanced Dementia: Safety monitoring to prevent wandering and manage sundowning behaviors.
• Spinal Cord Injury (SCI): Supporting independence and dignity for younger adults and seniors.
• Palliative Care: End-of-life support that keeps families together at home.

Our Intake Process.

Step 1: The Funding Review
‍Before we commit to a schedule, we review your CDHCI agreement. We calculate exactly what your funding covers and provide a transparent quote for any private top-up.

Step 2: The Home Assessment
‍A Nurse visits your home to assess safety requirements, transfer protocols, and the living environment for the caregiver.

Step 3: The "Perfect Match" Selection
‍Living together requires chemistry. We select a primary caregiver based on clinical skills and personality fit.

Our Guarantee: If the connection isn't right in the first month, we will find a replacement.

Step 4: The Trial Period
‍We typically start with a 1-month trial period to ensure the routine works for your loved one and the caregiver before committing to a long-term arrangement.

Peace of Mind is Our Policy.

1. Clinical Oversight
‍We are not a booking agency. Every Live-In Client is assigned a dedicated Nursing Care Manager who conducts regular home visits, updates the care plan, and liaises with your health team.

2. Reliability & Backup
‍The fear of a "No-Show" is real. We maintain a "Bench" of orientation-ready staff. If your primary caregiver is sick or needs vacation, we deploy a backup who has been briefed on your specific care plan. You are never left alone.

3. Direct Billing Convenience
We are an approved vendor for Alberta Blue Cross and can bill directly for eligible services. We handle the submission and paperwork so you don't have to chase reimbursements.
