A Quieter, Greener Corner of Richmond
Terra Nova sits in the northwest corner of Richmond, bordered by the North Arm of the Fraser River and anchored by Terra Nova Rural Park, a stretch of farmland, trails and wetland that gives the neighborhood a slower, greener feel than much of the rest of the city. Homes here tend to sit on spacious family lots, and many were built decades ago for families who never left, which makes Terra Nova one of Richmond's most established single-family pockets.
For home care, that history matters. A family calling us about a parent in Terra Nova is usually not thinking about a move. They are thinking about how to keep a longtime homeowner safely and comfortably in the house they raised their family in, on a lot that may include stairs, a garden, or a long driveway that needs to be factored into any care plan.
A homeowner who has lived on the same Terra Nova lot for thirty years does not want a generic care schedule. They want support that fits the property and the routine they already have.
Families We Work With in Terra Nova
Every Terra Nova engagement starts with the same private, no-pressure in-home assessment. These are the situations that bring families to us most often.
Long-tenured homeowners aging in place
Support for seniors who have lived in the same Terra Nova home for decades and want a care plan built around that house, not a move to somewhere new.
Families managing a gradual decline in independence
Help stepping in gradually as mobility, memory, or daily tasks become harder, without forcing an all-or-nothing decision about care.
Recovery after a hospital stay or surgery
Post-hospital or post-surgical support at home, coordinated with Richmond Hospital discharge planning so recovery happens on familiar ground.
Households that want a consistent, familiar caregiver
Matching built around long-term consistency, so the same trusted caregiver becomes part of the household routine rather than a rotating cast.
Home Care Services Available in Terra Nova
Whichever service fits, care is coordinated through our Lead Registered Nurse and backed by our full Richmond team, with proximity to Richmond Hospital for any discharge or hospital-to-home transition.

Home Care in Terra Nova: Common Questions
Yes. Many Terra Nova properties include gardens, long driveways or outbuildings, and our in-home assessment accounts for the specific layout of your property, not a standard suburban lot.
Yes, this is the most common request we get in Terra Nova. We typically start with a few hours a week and increase support as needs change, rather than starting with a large package.
