| Description | Community Care Access Centres (CCACs) are the local point of access to community-based health care services. CCACs provide access to government-funded in-home health care (nursing, personal support, physiotherapy, occupational therapy, speech therapy and nutrition) and community services, and placement to long-term care homes. Also provide information about local community support service agencies, and we can link people to these agencies. Anyone can make a referral to a CCAC - a person requiring service, a family member, caregiver, friend, physician, or other health care professional. Work in partnership with clients, families, care providers, hospitals, long-term care homes and others to ensure that the right care is available at the right time and place. The Hamilton Niagara Haldimand Brant (HNHB) CCAC Branch offices are located in Hamilton, St Catharines, Simcoe, Brantford and Burlington. The head office is located in Brantford. | |||
