This Senior Resources Guide has been created as a convenient starting point, bringing together helpful information on home care, health services, financial assistance, transportation, housing, recreation, caregiver support, dementia resources, government programs, and community organizations. Whether you're planning ahead, navigating a recent change, or looking for specific local services, this directory is designed to help seniors, caregivers, and families quickly find trusted resources in Victoria, BC. At Success Home Care, we believe that access to the right information empowers older adults to live safely, independently, and confidently in the community they call home.
For many older adults, nighttime can be one of the most difficult parts of the day. Once the house becomes quiet and family members have gone home, concerns about getting up safely, using the bathroom, managing medications, or simply feeling alone can become much more noticeable.
Dementia is an umbrella term for a range of conditions that affect memory, thinking, communication, and the ability to perform everyday activities. While it is more common in older adults, dementia is not a normal part of ageing.
Caring for a loved one living with Alzheimer's disease or another form of dementia can be both rewarding and emotionally challenging. As memory loss and cognitive changes progress, many families find it increasingly difficult to provide the supervision, consistency, and compassionate support their loved one requires while balancing work, family, and other responsibilities.
