In past Zoom events, we have had guest speakers discussing caregiving provided through the Ministry of Health (Ontario Health atHome), and in Long Term Care & Retirement Homes.
Our guest speaker will discuss a third alternative: hiring a live-in caregiver. Sometimes such caregivers are hired from another country through a sponsorship arrangement. Imtiaz will discuss the processes, costs, and how to minimize risks of hiring a 24×7 live-in caregiver.

This includes programs like the CPP, OAS, the Canada Disability Benefit, the Canadian Dental Care Plan (CDCP). Click here for a more complete list of supported Federal programs. In our June 2026 Federal Benefits for Seniors Zoom event, we notice interest and questions from members about some of these programs that CRA guest presenters referred to Service Canada.
