ABOUT US
About Truly HomeCare Services in Calgary
Truly HomeCare Services supports seniors and adults who need extra help managing daily life at home. Whether someone requires assistance with personal hygiene, movement, companionship or regular routines, our approach begins with understanding what the individual can manage independently and where support is needed.
We recognise that accepting care can be a significant change for both the individual and their family. Our caregivers focus on respectful, one-on-one assistance that considers personal preferences, privacy and familiar routines.
As a provider of home care in Calgary, we help families explore suitable care arrangements without assuming that every person needs the same services or level of assistance.
When Aging Parents Need More Support at Home
For many families, the need for additional care becomes noticeable through small changes in everyday life. A parent may struggle to get dressed, find bathing more difficult, miss meals or become less confident moving around the house.
Other changes may be less visible. A loved one might withdraw from social activities, become confused during familiar routines or need more help during the evening and overnight.
These situations do not always mean someone must leave their home. Depending on their needs, senior home care in Calgary may offer practical assistance while allowing them to remain in familiar surroundings.
Personal care can help with bathing, dressing and hygiene. Companionship provides regular social interaction, while respite care gives family caregivers time away from their usual responsibilities. For those needing more frequent assistance, ongoing or overnight support may be considered.
The appropriate level of care depends on the person’s abilities, safety needs, preferences and existing support from family or healthcare professionals.

Private Home Care and Funding Options in Calgary
Understanding how care is arranged and paid for is an important part of choosing the right support. Calgary families may explore privately funded home care or, where eligible, services through Alberta’s Client Directed Home Care Invoicing (CDHCI) programme.
The appropriate option depends on the individual’s needs, eligibility, available care arrangements and authorised services.
Private-Pay Home Care
Private home care in Calgary allows individuals and families to discuss the assistance they need directly with a provider. This may include personal care, companionship, respite, overnight assistance or ongoing support.
Before arranging care, ask which activities are included, how visits are scheduled, whether minimum visit periods apply and what the proposed services will cost.
A personalised quotation helps families understand the services being discussed before making arrangements.
Client Directed Home Care Invoicing (CDHCI)
CDHCI is an option for eligible home and community care clients who wish to choose a registered agency to provide approved services.
Eligibility and care requirements are determined through an assessment by Assisted Living Alberta. Eligible clients receive authorisation for specific services and a maximum number of care hours. Registered agencies submit claims through Alberta Blue Cross for covered services.
Approved support may include personal care, eligible homemaking assistance or respite care, depending on the individual’s assessment. Not every service requested privately is automatically covered through CDHCI.
What Affects the Cost of Home Care?
Private home care costs depend on the type of assistance needed, the length and frequency of visits, scheduling requirements and the level of support involved.
For example, occasional companionship visits and regular personal care with hands-on mobility assistance may require different arrangements. Overnight support may also need a separate discussion about duties and scheduling.
Families using CDHCI should review their authorised hours and any potential charges beyond the programme’s approved limits or maximum reimbursement rate.
Truly HomeCare can discuss your care requirements and provide information about the available arrangements during an assessment.
Why Choose Us
Why Families Choose Truly HomeCare in Calgary

Short-term, overnight, respite and ongoing care options allow families to discuss arrangements suited to their circumstances.
Respect for Independence

Home Care Across Calgary: Support That Fits Daily Life
Families across Calgary often arrange home care when an aging parent begins struggling with bathing, preparing meals, moving around the house or managing daily routines alone. Others need support because work, family responsibilities or living in another part of the city makes regular caregiving difficult. The right arrangement depends on what help is needed and how often someone can be there.
In communities such as Beltline, Varsity, Midnapore and Seton, care needs may differ from one household to another. A senior living alone in a condominium may need regular personal assistance and companionship, while someone in a detached home may require mobility support or help during family caregivers’ absence. Truly HomeCare Services can discuss suitable visits based on the person’s needs, location and available care arrangements.

CALGARY LOCAL EXPERTISE
Home Care Across Calgary: Planning Support Around Your Home
Home care should account for more than a person’s health and daily routines. The layout of their home, accessibility, family involvement and practical arrangements for caregiver visits also matter.
In Calgary neighbourhoods such as Beltline, Varsity and Seton, families may be arranging care in different kinds of homes, from apartments and condominiums to detached houses. Each home presents its own practical considerations.
Planning Caregiver Access
For an apartment or condominium, families may need to arrange building entry, visitor parking, lift access or instructions for reaching the care recipient.
In a detached or multi-level home, stairs, bathrooms, entryways and mobility equipment may be relevant when discussing the assistance required.
Preparing for Calgary Winters
Snow, icy walkways and cold temperatures can make entering and leaving a home more difficult for someone with limited mobility.
When planning support, families should consider accessible entrances, clear walking paths and whether a loved one requires assistance moving safely around the home during winter.
Care That Fits the Household Routine
Daily support may need to account for meal times, family visits, appointments and periods when a senior is usually alone.
If you are arranging care for someone in Calgary, share their address, living arrangements, access requirements and daily challenges during the initial discussion. Truly HomeCare can then discuss whether suitable service arrangements are available for that location.
Approved and Recognized Home Care Provider in Alberta
We are approved by Alberta Health Services for Client Directed Care and are also approved by Alberta Blue Cross. This allows eligible families to access funded home care support with confidence and transparency.
