For Families in Kelowna, Alzheimer and Dementia care starts at home
Caring for a loved one living with dementia or Alzheimer's disease can be emotionally and physically challenging. At Home Heart Health, our specialized dementia care services in Kelowna are designed to help individuals remain safe, comfortable, and supported in the familiarity of their own home.
For many people living with dementia, familiar surroundings provide comfort, reduce confusion, and help maintain daily routines. Remaining at home can often improve quality of life while allowing families to stay actively involved in their loved one's care. Our compassionate team works alongside families to provide personalized support that evolves as care needs change.

Supporting Families
Every Step of the Way
Dementia affects the entire family—not just the person receiving care. Family caregivers often experience emotional stress, exhaustion, and burnout while balancing caregiving with their own responsibilities.
Our respite care services provide family members with the opportunity to rest, attend appointments, travel, or simply take time for themselves, knowing their loved one is receiving compassionate, professional care.
Whether you need a few hours each week, overnight support, or ongoing daily care, we'll work with you to create a schedule that supports both your loved one and your family.
