CarePartners has grown to be one of the largest, most reputable, and well-established home care service providers in Ontario. Established in 1983, our CEO Linda Knight was a nurse who saw the need for building home care services around the patient’s needs. Since then, we’ve been on a mission to GROW and INNOVATE community health care, as we firmly believe that the future of healthcare is Home Care.

Nurses working for us in community not only experience flexible scheduling and work-life balance, but they also appreciate the home care setting, where they develop meaningful relationships with patients, while preserving patient dignity and privacy.

Working within an extremely supportive and collaborative environment focused exclusively on quality of patient care, community nurses have the chance to exercise their full scope of practice, pursue specialization and champion innovative, award-winning health care programs.
