Searching for home care in Bedford, NS usually starts with something small that has started to feel big: a stumble in the kitchen, a hospital discharge, a missed meal, or piling laundry. You notice it before anyone else does, and you realize that you need an extra hand. You contact Continuing Care but it will take a few months to set up public home care.
