Home, Not Facility

No 2-year waitlist. Care starts now.
The alternative to placement
24-hour care at home - because a facility shouldn't be the only option
The doctor says "it's time for a home." The waitlist for a long-term care bed is 2–5 years. Private facilities cost $6,000–$12,000/month and your parent shares a room with a stranger. Meanwhile, their own home - the place they've lived for decades - sits empty.
Live-in care is the alternative. A trained, consistent caregiver lives in your parent's home, providing 24-hour presence - personal care, meal preparation, medication reminders, companionship, overnight support, and household management. One-on-one care in familiar surroundings, at a cost often comparable to private LTC facilities.
This is the highest level of home care Aviora provides. It's designed for families who've been told "they can't live alone anymore" and refuse to accept that a facility is the only answer. For families who need part-time relief, see respite & overnight care. For complex needs involving memory loss, see dementia-friendly care.
When families search for live-in home care near me or 24-hour care in Ontario, Aviora provides a dedicated caregiver who becomes part of the household. We deliver live-in care across 120+ Ontario communities - from Toronto and Kitchener to London, Thunder Bay, and rural areas - with placement starting within 48 hours.
Is this the right service?
Who live-in & extended care is for
Seniors who can't live alone safely
Fall risk, cognitive decline, inability to self-care - they need someone present around the clock, but a facility isn't the right fit or isn't available.
Families avoiding facility placement
You've seen the facilities. You've seen the waitlists. Your parent wants to stay home. Live-in care makes that possible with professional support.
Complex care needs requiring full-day coverage
Multiple daily personal care needs, continuous supervision, overnight toileting, dementia-related behaviors. Too much for visit-based care alone.
Couples aging together
Both need support. One caregiver in the home can serve both partners - often more practical and less disruptive than separate facility placements.
Remote or rural locations
No facilities nearby. Limited visit-based options. Live-in care brings professional care to the home regardless of location. See: rural care planning.
Transitioning from hospital with high needs
Discharged with complex recovery needs. Live-in care provides the continuous presence that makes safe recovery at home possible. See: hospital-to-home care.

Common questions
What families ask about live-in care
