  • Who benefits from our services?
    Everyone does! We work with seniors and their loved ones to narrow down options and services for aging at home or relocating to the right retirement home. We find options best suited for both lifestyle and budget. We work directly with healthcare providers and offer a 24 hour, 7 days a week, urgent residence locator service. We quickly locate accommodations and care services based on client needs for prompt connections.
  • Why should I use your service as opposed to contacting the community or service provider myself?
    Navigating resources, services and accommodations can be exceptionally time consuming, not to mention comparing the offerings and services can be confusing for first timers. Our FREE service provides you with the advice and guidance to help you to make informed and knowledgeable decisions.
  • What can I expect when working collaboratively with Help for Mom?
    We are not a call centre, you will work with the same advisor. As an impartial party, we have the ability to help you compare and analyze options by providing you with experience and quality information. You will have peace of mind knowing that you are making the best, informed decisions for you or your loved ones.
  • What criteria do you use to base your recommendations?
    During what we call a "Discovery Meeting" we discuss all of the aspects regarding your circumstances, including; medical needs, dietary requirements, mobility, financials, interests and hobbies. It is the information we receive from you that we base our recomendations on. The more you can provide us with, the better we can provide stree-free solutions. We have a database of fully vetted homes and service providers across Canada, and can read our clients reviews to gain even more insight as to what places and companies will be the best for you. This is insight gained from people, like you, who have provided us with trusted, first-hand reviews.
  • How qualified are you to provide recommendations?
    We are the most qualified advisory service in Canada. We are a Canadian company lead by a team with real industry experience. We are run by a CEO that is one of the largest, senior's housing experts in Canada. Collectively we are deeply rooted in the Canadian senior's housing and care industry and we have a deep understanding of providers throughout Canada.
  • Your service is free, but are there hidden fees?"
    Absolutely not! Help for Mom is a free service to our clients. If a client chooses a service providor or retirement residence which is partnered with us they will pay us a referral fee which cannot be passed along to the client. However, we will suggest what we believe to be the best option whether we receive a fee or not.
  • What is a respite stay?
    Respite stay refers to accommodations for a short time. Reasons may include post-operative recovery, convalescence, caregiver relief or simply a trial run. Fees are generally consistent with what the residence would charge for permanent occupancy.
  • Should I keep my loved one at home during the Covid-19 pandemic?
    This is a very personal choice. We are happy to discuss the differences between retirement living and long term care, shared rooms, private rooms, stages of health and the multitude of other factors involved when making this decision. Call us!
