A place to start

Family Support Consultation
$120 / 2-hour session

Who this is for: Families who feel unsure where to begin or need help making sense of a complex situation.

​

Sometimes the hardest part is knowing where to begin.

​

This is an opportunity to sit down, talk through what is happening, and make sense of what you and your family may need. Together we can explore your concerns, identify priorities, look at available resources, and consider practical next steps.

​

You don’t need to have everything figured out before you reach out.

Individual & Family Support

$60 per hour

 

Who this is for: Individuals and families who need flexible, in-the-moment support — whether for a few hours or on an ongoing basis.

Support may include:

• Presence and companionship for someone approaching the end of life

• Giving family caregivers time to rest and recharge

• Practical support and personal care at home

• Helping family members understand what to expect as illness progresses

• Talking through concerns and difficult decisions

• Accompanying someone to an appointment or care-related activity

• Connecting families with helpful community resources

You can arrange a single visit, a few hours of support during a particularly difficult time, or ongoing support as needs change.

A minimum visit length may apply to in-person support.

• 5 hours — $275 ($55 per hour — save $25)

Planning ahead

​

Advance Care Planning

From $175

​

Who this is for: Anyone who wants to clarify their wishes and help the people who matter to them understand what is important.

Planning ahead isn’t about expecting the worst. It’s about making sure the people who matter to you understand what is important to you, should a time come when you cannot speak for yourself.

​

This support helps you explore your wishes, values and priorities, and identify the conversations that may be helpful to have with family and those involved in your care.

​

Contentus provides guidance around these conversations. Legal documents and medical advice are outside the scope of this service.

• Caring for a loved one at home

• Supporting family caregivers

• Advance care planning
