The Implications of Self-Directed Home Care in Ontario: A Case Study on Gotcare Services

Academic Institution

Project Funder

The Ontario home care system is fragmented. Its services are divided among the public sector, for-profit, and nonprofit home care companies. Publicly funded care is often insufficient and leaves many older adults having to seek out additional privately funded care. An Ontario home care company called Gotcare provides supplementary home care delivery to Ontarians that are the hardest to reach, in a way that is consistent, transparent, and sustainable.
