  • GR-2682
  • Series
  • 1972-1980

Files relating to the Home Support program, a component of the Long Term Care program, including day and subject files of the Provincial Home Support Co-ordinator. The Home Support Program seems to have evolved from the Special Care, Adult Division (SCAD) which first appeared in the Department of Human Resources annual report organization chart in 1973. SCAD was involved in subsidizing elderly and handicapped persons who were cared for outside their own home and whose income was insufficient to meet the costs of the supportive services they needed, and in providing support services to elderly persons in their own homes. The Long Term Care Program became effective 1 January 1978. It was designed to meet the needs of persons who could not live without help because of health-related problems which did not warrant care in an acute-care hospital. The Ministries of Health and Human Resources were jointly responsible for the program. In 1983, the program's official designation was changed from Home Care/Long Term Care to Continuing Care Division, Institutional Services. Contents summary: Boxes 1-2 Minister's day files regarding home support 1978-1979 Boxes 2-3 Day files of the Provincial Home Support Co-ordinator, 1979-1980 Boxes 3-7 Correspondence/subject files of the Provincial Home Support Coordinator, 1972-80
