We recognize that our elders deserve the most respect and care we can give them.  Many people are familiar with the term, The Sandwich Generation. It means people who are caught between their children at home and their parents who need extra care.  According to Statistics Canada, three in 10 middle-aged Canadians who have children at home - some 712,000 people - also care for a senior.

Many times family members may not live nearby or their own hectic family schedules limit their availability to their elder family members. Because most of the Sandwich generation works full time, they find these responsibilities tiring, expensive and emotionally draining.

Often seniors and elders just need a little helping hand and assistance with various chores and day-to-day activities, in their everyday life. Time Is Money provides a little extra help yet still provides our elder clients the opportunity to maintain their sense of independence without compromising their autonomy.

This new division of Time is Money is exclusively for people 70 years and older and living in an assisted living accommodations or on their own. Exceptions may be made for those between the ages of 60 and 69, on a case by case basis.

All Mature Time services are conducted 2 times a month to meet the requests of seniors and keep the costs low for people on limited budgets. Senior assistance is only available on specific days.  Any time sensitive services (such as transportation to doctors appointments) must be scheduled 2 weeks in advance.

Service costs will be reduced if services can be performed at specific housing residences at the same time. (i.e. we can come and drop off/perform services for 5 different client all living in the same lodge/residence/etc.)
