Public long-term care and home care for Picadilly residents

Long-term care in New Brunswick is arranged through the Department of Social Development, not the regional health authorities. One application covers home support services, special care homes, nursing homes and memory care homes. To qualify for the Long Term Care Program, a person must be 65 or older, live in New Brunswick, be medically stable, and need services on a long-term basis. A social worker assesses the required level of care, and pricing at licensed homes like Living Hope is set through this provincial assessment rather than purely private-pay rates — subsidy is income-tested, based on the Standard Family Contribution. Special care homes such as Living Hope are privately owned but provincially licensed and inspected by Social Development, with annual inspection reports posted online for each facility.

Families in Picadilly can start by calling Social Development at 1-833-733-7835 (Monday to Friday, 8:15 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.) to begin an application or ask about home support, or the New Brunswick Government Seniors' Information Line at 1-855-550-0552 for general guidance on programs and services.

How to choose a senior home near Picadilly

• Ask whether the home is licensed as a special care home, and request the most recent Social Development inspection report before touring.
• Confirm the assessed care level the home accepts (Level 2 or 3G for special care homes) and whether that matches your family member's needs.
• Ask about staffing at night, how monthly costs change if care needs increase, and what triggers a move to a nursing home.
• Because Picadilly has only one listed community, check senior homes across New Brunswick for nearby alternatives if this one is full or not the right fit.
• If you're unsure which care level applies, start with a free care assessment before contacting homes directly.
• Have your social insurance number, income details, private insurance information and any Power of Attorney documents ready before applying for the Long Term Care Program.
