Common questions
A little clarity goes a long way.
Is assisted living the same as long-term care?
No. Retirement residences and long-term care homes are different settings with different care and admission processes. In Ontario, contact Ontario Health atHome about long-term care assessment and placement.
How much does senior living cost?
Costs vary by suite, provider and services. Ask for a written breakdown including care, meals, medication support, housekeeping and any additional fees. This directory does not publish unverified prices.
Can I arrange a tour here?
Open a residence profile and contact the provider directly. We are an independent information directory, not a care provider or booking service.
