Service Description
Provides funding for non-medical, social support services to First Nations seniors, adults with chronic illness, and children and adults with disabilities (mental and physical) on reserve to help them maintain their independence.
Program includes three major components:
- In-home Care – for individuals in need of assistance with daily living activities
- Adult Foster Care – for individuals in need of personal non-medical care in a supported living environment
- Institutional Care – for individuals in need of personal non-medical 24-hour care.
Eligibility
First Nations individuals residing on-reserve*, or ordinarily resident on-reserve*, who has been formally assessed by a health care provider as requiring social support services.
Individuals must not have the means to obtain such services themselves, or access to other sources of support from the federal, provincial, or Yukon governments.
*Ordinarily resident on-reserve means that individuals live on-reserve and do not maintain primary residence off-reserve. Individuals who are off-reserve to obtain care not available on-reserve are considered ordinarily resident on-reserve, and eligible for funding through the Assisted Living Program, if all eligibility criteria are met.
Application Process
If you are ordinarily resident on-reserve and wish to find out if you are eligible to receive assisted-living services such as in-home care, adult foster care and institutional care under the Assisted Living Program, contact your band's assisted living coordinator or your band's manager.
