Home Care Services

Home Care is a cost effective alternative to residential care; many people considering Assisted Living, Long Term Care or Hospice prefer to remain in the comfort of their own homes with the support of some Home Care services.  Whether you need a Companion or a professional Nurse, Shylo can provide the appropriate level of support you need to safely remain in your own home.  Although we specialize in Senior Care and Palliative Care, we are certainly available to help anyone in need who might benefit from Home Health Care services.

Shylo Nursing and Home Healthcare offers a full complement of Home Support and Professional Nursing services.  We can provide a Homemaker to help with housekeeping, shopping and meal preparation; a Companion to drive and escort you to medical or social appointments; a Nurse’s Aide to help with personal care and medication administration; or a professional Nurse for complex nursing or hospice care; whatever your situation, we can meet all of your healthcare needs.  We have experienced Home Care Nurses and Care Aides who specialize in Hospice and Palliative Care, Alzheimer’s and Dementia Care, as well as many other diseases and conditions common in the elderly community.

Some agencies only offer non-professional staff (Housekeepers or Resident Care Attendants), but Shylo is a full service home care agency with every level of professional and non-professional health care staff available.  Most people’s health fluctuates over time, and on occasion you may temporarily require a higher level of home care support.  With Shylo you never need to worry about calling different companies as your needs change; we offer the peace of mind knowing you can rely on one familiar and reputable agency to meet all of your home healthcare needs.

Shylo thoroughly screens all potential employees during the hiring process; we require multiple personal and work-related references, a recent criminal record check and original certificates as evidence of education.  We carry $5M Liability Insurance, BC Workman’s Compensation Insurance and we are proud to provide our employees with fair wages and benefits, and a safe and supportive work environment.
