Applications can be made by individuals, family health care providers and palliative care specialists.

Website: George’s House

Services Provided

  • Assisted living for up to 5 clients.
  • In-reach clinical and medical supports. 
  • Family, spiritual, and cultural supports.
  • 24-hour care in a safe, home-like setting.
