What is Client Directed Home Care?
Client Directed Home Care is an Alberta Health Services program designed to give clients, especially seniors, those with chronic conditions, and family caregivers control over their home care. Instead of agency-assigned schedules and rotating caregivers, families pick providers, hours, and even specific caregivers who fit their needs and values.
Benefits of CDHCI:
- Choose who cares for your loved one.
- Set schedules that fit real life (not agency limits).
- Adjust plans easily if needs or routines change.
- Direct billing, clear costs, no surprises.
Who Qualifies?
Eligibility is centred on Alberta residency, needs assessment, and a safe home environment. If a loved one needs support with activities, health, or mobility and wants personalized care at home, you likely qualify. Get started by calling Alberta Health Services at 811 and scheduling a needs assessment.
