Retirement Homes & Senior Homes in Chase, BC

Senior homes in Chase: a local guide

Chase is a small community, and SeniorHome.ca currently lists one senior home in town: an assisted living residence. No starting rate has been published for it yet, so families should call directly or use our free care assessment to clarify needs before comparing costs.

The senior home in Chase

Parkside Community (1041090 BC Ltd) is Chase's only listed senior home, located at 743 Okanagan Ave. It offers assisted living — housing with hospitality services and help with daily tasks such as bathing, dressing and mobility, plus a 24-hour emergency response system, which is how the province defines registered assisted living. No monthly rate is posted for this community; families should contact Parkside directly for current pricing, or see our assisted living listing for Chase.

How Chase costs compare with larger BC cities

Chase is too small to have a published median starting rate, but it's useful to see where nearby regional centres land. Among BC's larger markets, Kamloops and Vernon — both in the BC Interior like Chase — have median starting rates around $2,549 a month, among the most affordable of the larger cities tracked provincewide. By contrast, North Vancouver ($4,173) and Vancouver ($3,977) are considerably more expensive. This suggests Interior communities generally offer lower starting rates than coastal and Lower Mainland cities, though Chase itself is too small for a reliable local median. See the full senior homes in British Columbia guide for province-wide pricing by care type. Families searching in Chase often also look at nearby larger communities for more options, though none are listed in our current data for this area.

Public long-term care and home care for Chase residents

Publicly subsidized long-term care and assisted living in British Columbia are arranged through the regional health authority after a care needs assessment; Chase falls within Interior Health's service area. To start the process, a family contacts the home and community care office, or a doctor, nurse, pharmacist or social worker can make the referral. An assessment determines eligibility, the level of care needed, and the cost, since subsidized rates are income-based: long-term care is generally up to 80 percent of after-tax income, and subsidized assisted living is calculated at 70 percent of after-tax income, each with a set minimum and maximum. Families can call 8-1-1 (HealthLink BC) for free guidance on navigating these services. Assisted living residences, including private-pay ones like Parkside, must be registered with the province's Assisted Living Registrar.

How to choose a senior home in Chase

• Call Parkside Community directly to confirm current availability, monthly rates, and what services are included in the assisted living fee.
• Ask whether the home accepts subsidized assisted living clients referred through Interior Health, or whether it is private-pay only.
• Request a needs assessment through Interior Health's home and community care office to understand what level of care is appropriate and what it would cost.
• Use our free care assessment to help clarify care needs before touring.
• Because Chase has only one listed senior home, many families also widen their search to nearby Interior Health communities for more choice in price and care type.
• Tour in person, ask to see a written residency agreement, and confirm what happens if care needs increase over time.
