The Seniors Community Support Programs provides service to those older adults identified as having care needs requiring support to live independently in the community. This program offers access to a basket of services based on assessed need to eligible older adults living in Penetang and in some cases the immediate surrounding area. We strive to impact positively on the wellness, independence and quality of life for at-risk seniors so that they are able to live longer, in better health and in their chosen environment.

Referral applications can be made by healthcare professionals, family members, community agencies and/or individuals who would qualify for the Residence or in-home service.
