ConsidraCare is a superior and more affordable alternative to long-term care facilities in and around Cambridge. We can source experienced caregivers from across Canada and match them to the requirements of families looking for care for their loved ones in Cambridge. If you or a loved one in Cambridge is seeking to stay and receive care in their own home, please reach out and we will be happy to help.

Aging comes with many challenges. Finding care and managing caregivers, whether part-time individuals or care providing organizations, can be an arduous challenge. We know because we have been there. Many families in Cambridge may opt to move their loved one’s to assisted living facilities to avoid the hassle of arranging in-home care.
However, assisted living facilities and retirement homes in Cambridge may not be the best solution as they can be expensive depending on the level of care required, cannot provide 1:1 personalized care, or the same caregiver for that matter, remove seniors from their communities and familiar surroundings, and can have many restrictions on daily activities such as family visits, meals and keeping pets.
Hourly care agencies in Cambridge may be a better option, but can be expensive if care is needed for more than a couple of hours a day, and also cannot guarantee the same caregiver. Care, especially for dementia, after all is built on trust and that can be only established if care is provided by the same person every day.
Live-in Caregivers from ConsidraCare can provide the same type of services available in a long-term care facility, but which is better quality and can be more affordable in many cases. Our care experts can help you assess your needs and match you or your loved one with a screened, professional and dedicated live-in caregiver experienced in providing care for common seniors’ conditions. We also provide you, your family and your caregiver in Cambridge with tools and support to deliver an affordable and superior alternative to long-term care facilities.
Senior home care allows seniors to age in place instead of moving to a residential care facility and is provided in their homes by professional caregivers. It can also provide respite to family caregivers.
Care can include bathing, helping with mobility, meal preparation, transportation, medication and exercise reminders, light housekeeping, companionship, and more. It does not cover medical treatments.
Depending on a senior’s needs, a caregiver may visit on some days a week for a few hours (referred to as live-out or hourly care) or live in the senior’s home to provide live-in care around the clock.
Yes, we offer live-in care where a dedicated caregiver stays with your loved one 24/7, ensuring round-the-clock support for those needing continuous assistance.
ConsidraCare maintains a pool of hundreds of prescreened and experienced caregivers. Our client care experts first discuss your elderly care needs with you and your family members and develop a complementary senior care plan.
If the senior needs only a few hours of care a day, we provide matched caregivers from the pool of our own bonded, insured and experienced employees. We take care of their scheduling and monitor them constantly during care delivery.
If the senior has more complex needs which required a caregiver living in with them to provide 24×7 care we help the families interview and hire caregivers directly from our pool as it is more cost-effective. <br><br>
However, we take care of all the hassle of hiring and setting up and running the payroll. Once you and your family have made a choice, your live-in caregiver will arrive on a designated date and start providing elderly care as per our care plan.
All of ConsidraCare’s caregivers go through a rigorous screening process including interviews, background and vulnerability sector checks and onboarding training.
ConsidraCare uses a custom-built, state-of-the-art platform to screen and match caregivers with our clients and keep families updated in real-time on the care delivery of their loved ones. The automation in our platform allows us to deliver care at 20 – 30% below the average industry rates.
We are very selective and only 6% of our applicants make it to the interviews. Our caregivers undergo constant training to ensure they deliver the best possible care to their clients.
We are a physician and female-led organization which enables us to get a deeper understanding of the care needs of our clients and advocate for them with their primary healthcare providers.
The cost of home care services depends on the level of care needed, the number of hours required, and the type of support provided. On average, home care costs range from $25 to $40 per hour. For full-time care, costs may range from $4,000 to $10,000 per month, depending on the level of care required. In contrast, a private room in a nursing home can cost $6,000 to $12,000 per month.
Choosing in-home care can be a more cost-effective solution for seniors who require only part-time assistance or companionship. Contact us for a personalized care plan and detailed pricing based on your loved one’s needs.
Home care services allow seniors to maintain their independence and stay in a familiar environment while receiving personalized care. Unlike nursing homes, in-home care provides one-on-one attention, customized support, and the emotional comfort of staying close to family.
Yes, our caregivers receive specialized training in dementia and Alzheimer’s care. Most of our caregivers are also certified in Gentle Persuasive Approach (GPA), a proven method for supporting individuals with dementia. GPA training helps caregivers understand the behavioral responses of seniors with dementia, allowing them to provide compassionate, non-confrontational, and effective care. This approach reduces anxiety, minimizes resistance, and enhances the overall well-being of seniors by prioritizing dignity, patience, and trust.
