Senior Care Services We Offer
Home Care
Seniors who need help in the home.
Stay in Your Home Longer.
We can help you with your everyday needs like meal preparation (nutrition support), laundry, housekeeping (light homemaking), getting dressed (bathing, grooming, hygiene) and assistance with medications (medication reminders/medication management).
We are not a US-based franchise; we are a local business. We live where you live, so you can trust us to know the neighbourhood (from Lower Lonsdale to Deep Cove) and know the ins and outs of our healthcare system.
Our Geriatric Nurse Specialists conduct all new client assessments, develop a personalized care plan, and provide complementary Registered Nurse (RN) support for clients and staff.
Staying in your home is the best way to age comfortably; we even have drivers to get you where you need to go — transportation for seniors with door-to-door assistance, including escorted rides in Edgemont Village and Central Lonsdale.
Companion Care
Adult Children with Aging Parents.
Trust Shylo to Help Mom!
We know you want to help your mom or dad stay in their home, but you can’t always be there. However, you worry – will they be in good, safe hands?
We at Shylo Home Healthcare offer a free nurse assessment for your parents, and our online care system lets you see when we visited and how we helped (visit verification/EVV and secure family portal access) – it is a little peace of mind.
Helping your mom or dad stay in their home is the best way for them to stay safe, stay calm and carry on with the life they love.
We also provide respite care for flexible family caregiver relief.
Family Care
Families with New Babies.
Shylo Can Help You with the Chores!
We know you want to be a super mom, but you were up half the night with the baby, and there are only so many hours in a day. You’re tired, and you need help around the house.
Caring for a young family is easier when someone has the meals, the laundry and housekeeping covered. The years when your kids are young are short.
We can help you enjoy those precious years more by lending a hand. Who knows you might even get to take a well-deserved mental health break!
Professional Care
Post Operation Care
Allow Shylo to Support Your Recovery!
Our caregivers can help with pain medication (including medication reminders), and our drivers can drive you to check-ups with your doctor for post-surgery appointments.
Palliative Care
Families dealing with palliative care
It Is a Family Affair.
We know how hard it can be on a family when a loved one is chronically ill. It demands special time and attention that you may or may not have. It is hard to be a family member and a caregiver.
Be kind to yourself as well as your loved one. Get the help you need, so you do not experience burnout — our respite care provides breaks for family caregivers.
Special Care
Families Dealing with Special Health Issues.
Dementia, Alzheimer’s and other Special Needs.
(memory care, Parkinson’s care, and more)
You still have a full-time job, kids that need you, and a loved one who cannot manage safely on their own.
Let us help you help your loved one.
Rides By Shylo
Assisted Ride Care Service
Let Us Help You Get Out of the House
Wherever they need to go — doctor’s appointments, the grocery store, or just out to walk the seawall — we are here to help, including support with mobility aids.
Plus, we don’t just drop you off; we provide door-through-door assistance, making sure you — and any packages or wheelchairs — get inside safely.
About Shylo
MEET THE OWNER
Margot Ware
Owner of Shylo Home Care for 25+ years!
I am Margot Ware, RN BScN, GNC (c), the present Director/Owner of Shylo Home Healthcare. I initially joined the Home Care Agency as a Companion in 1986.
Impressed by both Betty's and Linda's in-home nursing and palliative/end-of-life care of my terminally ill mother and later my aged grandfather, I felt that I literally stumbled into my vocation through their wonderful example.
I started my educational journey towards a Registered Nursing degree while continuing to work as a Home Healthcare Aide at Shylo.
Ten years later, when Betty and Linda decided to retire, I took over the company that she'd grown to love.
