More at Home Society

ORGANIZATION DESCRIPTION:

More at Home Society is a registered charity in British Columbia that helps seniors stay safely in their own homes when they can’t afford the care they need. We support older adults who fall into the gap between limited public services and costly private care, many of whom are at risk of declining health, hospitalization, or being forced into long-term care.

We also support family caregivers who are often stretched to their limits trying to fill this gap alone. By providing financial assistance for home care, we help preserve dignity, independence, and connection to community, because where you live and how you age matters.

"What programs or services do you currently offer?"

More at Home Society provides financial support to low- and moderate-income seniors so they can access essential home care services and remain safely in their own homes. A core part of our approach is supporting equity in the aging experience by enabling seniors to hire caregivers they know, trust, and connect with, rather than being limited to assigned care. This also supports family caregivers by helping offset the cost of care, reducing burnout and allowing them to continue supporting their loved ones safely. We also connect seniors with other community, nonprofit, and government resources to provide more holistic, wraparound support when possible."Low- and moderate-income seniors in British Columbia who are unable to access enough home support are the primary beneficiaries of our work, including those living in extreme risk without the care they need to stay safe at home. Family caregivers benefit through reduced financial strain and burnout, allowing them to continue supporting their loved ones. The broader community also benefits, as our work helps prevent crises, reduces pressure on hospitals and long-term care, and supports healthier, more connected communities where seniors can age safely at home with dignity and choice."
