About We Care Health Services

At We Care, we understand that seniors, and others who need care and support, enjoy an improved quality-of-life when they continue living at home in familiar surroundings. That’s why we’ve created the most professional, compassionate and attentive home care program in Canada. And it’s how we’ve grown into Canada’s largest independently owned home health service.

We’re locally based, so we understand your community and its history. We know the area’s unique character. Our own families are growing up here and in many instances, our parents and grandparents have helped shape the community’s history.

On the bigger scale, we’re nationally linked, with over 50 locations across Canada. We share successful practices, provide exclusive services, and are there when you need us.

It’s our compassion, along with the resourcefulness of a professional national network, that make us the care provider of choice for thousands of families all across Canada.

Established in 1984, We Care Health Services is now Canada's largest franchise system in the health care industry. We Care franchisees benefit from exploding demand for our services due to aging populations and government cutbacks, as well as the extensive support and infrastructure required to supply that demand.
