NEWMARKET, Ontario—Just Like Family Home Care, a Canadian company, announced the launch of its homecare services in three towns of Ontario—Newmarket, Aurora and Bradford.
“Our journey into caregiving is deeply personal,” said Jason Durocher, director of client experience. “When our daughter was seriously injured in a car accident, we saw firsthand how vital it is to have compassionate, reliable support at home. That experience changed us. It’s why we’re so passionate about guiding other families through their own care journeys.”
Company officials said with Newmarket’s population aged 65+ growing by more than 21% between 2016 and 2021, the need for trusted, community-based homecare has never been greater.
Just Like Family provides customized in-home care plans tailored to each client’s needs, matching caregivers who not only assist with daily activities but also foster emotional well-being and trust. From hygiene and meal preparation to companionship and family respite, their services are designed to bring peace of mind to families across Newmarket, Aurora and Bradford.
Just Like Family partners with organizations including Paradise Health, Vision Loss Rehabilitation Canada (VLRC), HearCANADA and Lifeline Canada. Through Paradise Health, clients can add massage, chiropractic services and naturopathic guidance to their in-home care services. By teaming up with Vision Loss Rehabilitation Canada and HearCANADA, Just Like Family caregivers receive training that equips them to better assist clients adapting to vision or hearing changes—whether reinforcing mobility techniques, supporting the use of adaptive tools or helping with hearing aids and daily communication needs. Through their partnership with Lifeline Canada, clients benefit from personal emergency response systems and automatic fall detection.
“Our care is inclusive and respectful,” said Sandra Durocher, director of family services. “We’re building strong relationships with local churches, health centers and city representatives so families always feel supported—not just with practical help, but with genuine human connection.”
