Personalized Care for In-Home Services
Ohana Care is a Calgary-based private company offering in-home care for seniors wanting to remain in the safety and comfort of their own. We will happily discuss all of your options over the phone, in a virtual meeting or in-person at your convenience.
What are the Benefits of the Client Directed Home Care Program?
Direct Billing
We will directly bill Alberta Blue Cross. The program covers the majority of your care. As of September 2023, the CDHCI program covers $32.92 per hour, which covers 100% of Ohana Care Health Services’ hourly rate, ensuring you no extra expenses.
Say Goodbye to Administration Headaches
If you previously were using the self-managed care program, you were required to hire private caregivers and manage all the administration involved. By choosing Ohana Care, we take care of finding you the right caregiving team with oversight from our Registered Nurses.
Choose the Best Provider for Your Family
You’re free to choose your preferred home care provider as long as they are approved by Alberta Blue Cross. This means you’re no longer required to choose a provider based on the area you live in.
How do I become eligible for the Client Directed Home Care Services?
To be eligible for the CDHCI program, you must:
- Be eligible for home care services as determined by an AHS assessment
- Have a home care assessment that determines the CDHCI program as a suitable mode of service delivery
- Ensure that the CDHCI program does not create a conflict of interest with any other AHS policy or Service Agreement
- Require a predictable level of service
- Be an Alberta resident with a valid health care card
How do I get started with the Client Directed Home Care Program?
Contact your current AHS Case Manager to discuss your eligibility for the CDHCI program, or contact the AHS Community Home Care Intake line to self-refer to the program. They will organize a Case Manager to come to your house to complete an assessment of your needs and develop a Service Care Plan outlining the approved hours and maximum care you’ve been approved for each month.

“Ohana Care was an absolute god send in caring for my father while in hospital and in long term care. His face brightened when they would appear.”
We utilized their services for companion care initially 24 hours per day and then 8 hours per day. They provided socialization and assisted with his care and daily routine. I can’t thank the entire team and especially our excellent caregivers who provided care for him. His face brightened when they would appear. I wouldn’t hesitate in recommending them.
Terri | Father was a home care client
“I highly recommend Ohana Care to ensure your loved ones can stay in their homes and know their needs are taken care of so the time you spend with them is quality time.”
My father was in a car accident and was living on his own. Before being placed into Assisted Living, I reached out for advice, guidance, and input into home care. The staff was empathetic to our situation and offered many services to assist my father in staying in his home. The staff at Ohana provided so much direction and comfort so we could make the right decisions at the right time.
