Residential Charges at personal care homes

The cost of personal care home services is shared by the provincial government and the client who needs the services. The government pays the majority of the cost through the Regional Health Authorities and the client pays a residential charge. The residential charge paid by a client is based on income. The rate structure ensures that all clients have a reasonable amount of spending money for personal expenses after paying the residential charge. The initial charge assessed for each client is the maximum daily rate. You may apply for a reduction to the maximum rate by completing a Tax Information Release Form, or by completing an Application for Reduced Residential Charges and providing a copy of your Canada Revenue Agency Notice of Assessment from the previous year. Facility staff will give you the correct form(s).
