Senior care in Richmond
Language is often the deciding factor for Richmond families. A parent who has fallen back on their first language, as many people do with age or with dementia, is far more at ease with a caregiver who speaks it. The senior care booking form asks for a preferred language; if yours is not listed, choose Other and type it. It is a request rather than a guarantee, and a narrower requirement can mean a longer wait, which we will tell you about honestly.
Publicly funded home support in Richmond is arranged through Vancouver Coastal Health. Puffin is separate: private care your family books directly, from three hours at a time, on its own or alongside public visits.
Rates are the same everywhere on the island, from a Steveston house to a City Centre apartment.

Senior care in Richmond: questions, answered
Frequently asked questions
Yes, you can request one. The booking form asks for a preferred language; if yours is not listed, choose Other and type it. It is a request rather than a guarantee, and the price does not change.
No. Puffin is private care booked and paid for directly by the family. It can be used on its own or to cover hours that public home support does not.
Not as an hourly booking. For a dedicated long-term caregiver, live-in or live-out, Puffin offers senior caregiver placement across BC: the caregiver becomes your family's employee, and Puffin runs the search and the checks.
