Connected Care – More Than A Check-In
A Connected Care visit is more than a check-in — it’s an essential step for staying healthy at home. Each month, your Clinical Leader visits your home to assess your well-being, monitor for new or changing needs, and look for early signs of concern. These check-ins help ensure your health, comfort, and safety are always supported.
Rather than rushing through a brief visit, your Connected Care clinical leader takes the time to really understand how you’re doing. They help manage day-to-day health concerns, review medications, and monitor your mobility. They can also identify environmental risks, such as clutter, fall hazards, or signs of difficulty managing daily tasks. Depending on your needs, they may suggest additional support like physiotherapy, occupational therapy, or household services.
Your Connected Care professional works as your long-term partner in aging well. Their consistent monthly visits create a system of early detection, informed decision-making, and personalized attention — giving you and your family peace of mind knowing someone is actively looking out for your health while you continue to age in place with confidence.
What Happens During Your Connected Care Visit?
Each client’s health care needs are as unique as they are and that’s why we take the time to learn your needs from the first visit. These visits help determine the care plan you’ll receive and what matters most to you. We take a holistic approach to fully understand your needs and a Connected Care visit can be focused on any of the following:
Physical
Staying ahead of changes in your health is one of the most powerful ways to prevent complications. That’s why each Connected Care visit includes a focused review of your overall physical condition — from energy levels and mobility to breathing, heart health, and any subtle shifts that might signal something more serious. Your dedicated health care professional knows what to look for and takes the time to monitor early indicators that are often missed in quick appointments. When something needs attention, they communicate directly with your doctor or pharmacist, helping ensure nothing slips through the cracks. By identifying concerns early and coordinating the right next steps, Connected Care helps you avoid unnecessary emergencies and stay healthier, safer, and more confident at home.
Cognitive
Staying ahead of changes in your health is one of the most powerful ways to prevent complications. That’s why each Connected Care visit includes a focused review of your overall physical condition — from energy levels and mobility to breathing, heart health, and any subtle shifts that might signal something more serious. Your dedicated health care professional knows what to look for and takes the time to monitor early indicators that are often missed in quick appointments. When something needs attention, they communicate directly with your doctor or pharmacist, helping ensure nothing slips through the cracks. By identifying concerns early and coordinating the right next steps, Connected Care helps you avoid unnecessary emergencies and stay healthier, safer, and more confident at home.
Environmental
Clinical Leaders also conduct an environmental assessment during each Connected Care visit, recognizing that early indicators of decline often present in the home before they appear clinically. They observe for changes such as increased clutter, difficulty maintaining household hygiene, expired or inadequate food supplies, or accumulating mail and unpaid bills — all of which signal emerging physical limitations, cognitive changes, or reduced capacity for daily functioning. Identifying these environmental risk factors allows the Clinical Leader to intervene early, communicate with family members when appropriate, and recommend additional supports or services to maintain a safe and stable home environment. This proactive monitoring is an essential part of ensuring clients can continue to live independently while reducing preventable safety risks.
Mobility
As we age, changes in mobility can happen slowly — a bit more stiffness when bending, needing an extra hand when standing, or feeling slightly unsteady on familiar steps. These subtle shifts can be early signs of muscle loss, joint pain, bone fragility, or chronic conditions like arthritis, neurological disorders, or cardiovascular issues. During each Connected Care visit, your Clinical Leader looks closely for these changes, watching how comfortably you move and identifying anything that may put you at risk of a fall. By catching mobility issues early, they can help you strengthen your stability, recommend personalized strategies, or work with your doctor to address underlying concerns. It’s a proactive approach designed to keep you moving safely, confidently, and independently in the place you call home.
We also understand some of our client’s needs are more specialized, so as part of our holistic approach to care, we offer Occupational Therapy, Physiotherapy and Kinesiology services at a 10% discount when combined with your Connected Care Plan.
Medication
Managing medications can be one of the most challenging parts of staying healthy as we age, especially when prescriptions change or when multiple medications are involved. During each Connected Care visit, your Clinical Leader can take the time to review when and where medications should be taken, clarify instructions from your physician, and ensure you never run out of what you need. For clients living with Alzheimer’s or dementia — where remembering doses, timing, and purpose can feel overwhelming — this support becomes even more essential. Your Clinical Leader helps bring order and reassurance to the process, reducing the risk of errors and coordinating directly with your doctor or pharmacist when something needs attention. It’s compassionate oversight that keeps you safe, supported, and confidently on track with your health.
For clients who are unable multiple prescriptions, we can offer our CarePack™ service that provides the additional peace of mind of pre-sorting your medications and packaging them for you in convenient pouches. Each pouch is pharmacist approved before being sent out for delivery and accompanied by a summary of your medications
being shipped.
