THINGS
We still wonder about many things, thank goodness! But we believe some things, too. And we even know a few... So we incorporated these precious things into all our businesses:
Automate.
We save people for people.
We save time, make tasks easier and free up people for each other.
Compete for better.
Cooperate for more.
We always aim to be better, but we give and take help along the way.
Spread out the earnings.
Too many think they should get rich at other’s expense. We don’t.
Give a hand up, not out.
People often help themselves, if given a chance. We support that.
Health is our goal.
Our companies simply promote health and wellness in body and mind.
We take kindness seriously.
True kindness is easy to spot.
Anything else is something else...
Over time, things change
but thankfully caring goes on forever.

Prescription form for foot care / custom orthotic therapy
Prescription for home care & cleaning services due to medical conditions
NOTES
Custom orthotics from qualified providers are “zero rated” for tax as medical devices when prescribed by any physician or nurse practitioner. We can also direct bill for First Nations, RCMP, Veterans, SGI, WCB & people on Social Assistance with Supplemental SK Health.
Home care services, even from personal care home providers, is taxable. If someone says they do not have to charge tax on hourly home care fees, that is simply not true. In fact, it could be tax fraud.
“Lowering” rates this way to attract business vs law-abiding competitors
could have negative consequences for both you and them down the road.
We cannot afford to be associated with such operators. Neither can you.
Here is a link from the CRA re: taxes and medically necessary care giving.
See Example 9 in the CRA link.
Private home care is not GST exempt if public services are not * also * used.
Saskatchewan Health offers publically-funded home care services.
They are good, quick and basic. They send whoever is available.
Our staff are patient, spend quality time & get a lot done in 3 hours!
Remember, our care staff typically come from the same schools.
See Example 10 from the CRA.
We recommend blending public & private service like ours so you are * legally * tax exempt while enjoying patient, consistent staff to getting exactly what you need for meeting your unique needs.
Know what is private & what is public. And get a prescription, just in case.
