Hey Everyone!

At Meridian Home Health, we believe care is more than a service — it’s a connection. Every day, our caregivers help bridge the gap between independence and support, between families and peace of mind, between what someone can do alone and what’s possible with a helping hand.

We’re proud to be part of so many families’ stories — bringing comfort, compassion, and consistency into the homes of those who need it most.

If someone you love could use a little extra support, we’re here to help make life easier, safer, and brighter.

Call us at 905-683-2111 or visit meridianhomehealth.ca to learn more.

Meridian Home Care is a locally owned and community based home care provider whose focus has always been about providing a great home care experience.

Hey Everyone!

October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month, and today’s post is a reminder that awareness becomes powerful when it turns into action. If you’ve been meaning to learn more about your personal risk—or to encourage someone you love—here’s a helpful place to start.

Ontario Health offers a free, confidential online breast cancer risk assessment called My CancerIQ. It walks you through a few questions and gives a personalized action plan you can discuss with your doctor. It takes about 10–15 minutes.

Take the assessment: https://www.mycanceriq.ca/Cancers/Breast

What you can do this month:
• Do a regular self-exam and know the signs
• Talk to your doctor about screening that’s right for you
• Share this resource with a friend or family member

If you or a loved one could use compassionate support at home, we’re here to help. Reach us at 905-683-2111 or visit meridianhomehealth.ca.

Hey Everyone,

September is recognized around the world as World Alzheimer’s Month — a time to learn, reflect, and raise awareness about a disease that affects more than half a million Canadians today.

Alzheimer’s is more than memory loss. It can change routines, relationships, and independence. Recognizing the early signs — like difficulty with familiar tasks, confusion about time or place, or changes in mood and behaviour — can make a real difference for families seeking support.

This month, let’s come together to spread knowledge and compassion. Awareness is the first step in supporting those living with Alzheimer’s and the loved ones who care for them.

Hey Everyone!

We love seeing people out enjoying the sunshine—but during these hot summer days, it’s easy to forget how strong the sun really is.

For seniors especially, too much heat or sun exposure can lead to serious issues like dehydration or heat exhaustion—even on days that don’t feel “too hot.”

If you’re caring for an older loved one, a neighbour, or even just checking in on family, now’s a great time to offer a shady spot to rest, remind them to stay hydrated, or help apply sunscreen before a walk.

Little things go a long way when it comes to safety and comfort in the heat.

If you’re looking for extra support this summer, we’re here to help—wherever home may be.

Hey Everyone!

June is all about celebrating the seniors in our lives—their strength, their stories, and the way they continue to shape our communities.

But even the most independent people sometimes need a little backup. That might mean help around the house, someone to walk with, or just knowing there’s a familiar face checking in.

At Meridian Home Health, we’re proud to support seniors in staying safe, comfortable, and connected—wherever they call home.

If you’ve been thinking about extra support for a parent, grandparent, or neighbour, we’re always here to talk.

Hey Everyone!

Remember the Ice Bucket Challenge? It was fun—and it worked. It brought global attention to ALS and raised millions for research. But for those living with ALS, the challenge never ends.

ALS is a progressive disease that slowly takes away the ability to move, speak, and eventually breathe. And while the mind stays strong, the body becomes more limited with time.

This month, we’re shining a light on what life with ALS really looks like—and how support at home can make all the difference.

If someone you love is facing the challenges of ALS, they don’t have to face them alone.

Call us at 905-683-2111 or visit meridianhomehealth.ca to learn how we can help with care, comfort, and compassionate support at home.

Let’s keep the conversation going.

Hey Everyone!

June is Men’s Health Month—a time to look out for the men who rarely look out for themselves. Whether it’s ignoring a check-up, pushing through pain, or brushing off stress, many men stay silent when it comes to their health.

But staying healthy means staying active, independent, and connected—now and for the years ahead.

If you or someone you love could use a little extra support at home, give us a call at 905-683-2111 or visit meridianhomehealth.ca to learn how we can help.

Let’s keep the good years rolling.

Hey Everyone!

June is Stroke Awareness Month — a good time to check in on your health and your loved ones'. Small things like high blood pressure, changes in speech, or even a brief dizzy spell could mean more than we think, especially as we age.

If someone you care about is recovering from a stroke or just needs a little extra support day to day, we’re here to help with compassionate care right at home.

Call us at 905-683-2111 or visit meridianhomehealth.ca to learn more about how we can support recovery and independence.

Hey Everyone!

May is Speech and Hearing Month—a time to recognize how vital communication is at every stage of life.

From young children developing speech skills to older adults navigating hearing changes, communication challenges can affect anyone. This month is about raising awareness, encouraging early detection, and making sure no one feels left out of the conversation.

Here are a few simple things we can all do:
• Get a hearing test (especially if it’s been a few years!)
• Keep volume levels safe—especially with headphones
• Learn the early signs of speech and language issues in kids
• Give others the time and space to express themselves
• Encourage seniors to get regular speech and hearing checkups

If you or someone you love could use a little extra support, feel free to reach out.
We're here to help: 905-683-2111 or visit meridianhomehealth.ca

Let’s help make every voice heard—this month and every month.
