Community Care Access Centres (CCACs) are local agencies that provide information about care options in your area. The CCACs were established by the Ministry of Health and Long-Term Care in 1996, to help the public access government-funded home and community services and long-term care homes. There are 14 CCACs throughout Ontario. Whether you are just beginning to explore your needs or ready to finalize arrangements, your local CCAC can help you : Identify your care needs Explore the options best suited to your needs and personal situation Determine your eligibility for government-funded services and settings Gather information about providers (home, community support services and residential care) in your area Find out how services are delivered Arrange for delivery of government-funded home and community support services Arrange and apply for admission to a long-term care home Get on the appropriate waiting lists To take the first step, use the CCAC Locator to find a CCAC near you.
