Burnaby Home Care Services

Seniors in Burnaby live longer and healthier lives when they can remain in their homes.

However, challenges such as age, limited mobility, surgery, or other health complications can make it difficult to manage daily tasks.

Family members may not always be in town or available to provide the necessary support. That’s where our senior home health care services come in.

We’re here to assist your loved ones by managing and supporting their daily, weekly, or monthly care plans, ensuring they remain comfortable and cared for in Burnaby.

At Shylo, we help seniors stay in the comfort of their own homes by providing support with daily tasks like meal preparation, housekeeping, getting dressed, and medication assistance.

As a local business, we understand the community and the healthcare system, ensuring personalized care you can trust.

Every new client is assessed by a Geriatric Nurse Specialist, with Registered Nurses available to support both clients and staff.

Trust Shylo to Help Mom!

At Shylo Home Healthcare, we understand how much you want to help your mom or dad stay safe and comfortable in their own home. But when you can’t always be there, it’s natural to worry: are they receiving the care they need?

That’s why we offer a free nurse assessment to evaluate their needs and provide tailored support. Plus, with our online care system, you’ll always know when we visited and exactly how we helped — giving you peace of mind even from a distance.

Keeping your parents at home allows them to feel secure, maintain their routines, and enjoy the life they love. Let Shylo help make that possible.

Shylo Can Help You with the Chores!

Welcoming a new baby is always joyful right!
But it demands a lot of time too.

Between sleepless nights and endless to-do lists, it can sometimes feel a bit overwhelming to juggle everything.

At Shylo, we provide practical support to lighten your load — helping with meals, laundry, and housekeeping so you can focus on what truly matters: bonding with your little one.

The early years with your child are fleeting and precious.

Let us take care of the chores, giving you the time and space to enjoy these special moments. Maybe even sneak in a well-deserved break — because you’ve earned it.

Professional Care

Post Operation Care

Allow Shylo to Support Your Recovery!

Recovering at home after surgery can be more comfortable than staying in a busy hospital, but it’s natural to need a little extra help during this time.

We’re here to support your senior loved ones’ recovery by taking care of everyday tasks like meal prep, laundry, housekeeping, and even assistance with dressing.

Our team also provides support with managing pain medications and can ensure you get to your doctor’s check-ups safely with our reliable transportation services.

Let us help you or your loved one focus on what matters most — healing and feeling at ease in the comfort of home.

Palliative Care

Families dealing with palliative care

It Is a Family Affair.

When someone you love is facing a palliative diagnosis, it’s not just their journey — it’s the whole family’s.

Balancing caregiving responsibilities with your role as a family member can be overwhelming and exhausting; trust us, we have seen it many times.

You don’t have to do it all alone.

Prioritize your own well-being as much as your loved one’s. By seeking support, you can avoid burnout and focus on spending meaningful time together.

Special Care

Families Dealing with Special Health Issues.

Dementia, Alzheimers’ and other Special Needs.

Life changes when someone you love begins to face the challenges of dementia or Alzheimer’s.

Familiar routines can suddenly feel unfamiliar, and simple tasks often become complex. As their world shifts, so does yours.

The constant balancing act of ensuring their safety, meeting their needs, and maintaining your own responsibilities can feel like an uphill battle.

With specialized care designed for the unique demands of dementia and Alzheimer’s, we focus on creating a safe, comforting environment where your loved one can thrive.

From gentle reminders to meaningful routines, our approach is rooted in compassion and respect.

MEET THE OWNER

Margot Ware

Margot Ware Shylo Healthcare

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.

Life has been made easier, thanks to Shylo! Shylo provides companion care for my elderly stepmom. The office staff have been so helpful and responsive, the caregivers are sociable, experienced, punctual and so patient with my stepmom. My elderly father is enjoying the respite - hiring Shylo has really lifted the stress and worry from his mind. As the person who coordinates their care, I really appreciate the wonderful, personalized service we’ve received. Thank you, Shylo!

Recently had the occasion to work with the Shylo staff for the care of a friend. Although it turned out to be short term, I found the staff very caring and adaptable to the quickly changing situation. They were attentive to my friends needs as well as helping me through the circumstances.
