Who pays for long-term care at Region of Peel centres?
A long-term care centre is a place where an individual lives and receives care and other services provided by trained staff.
The Ministry of Health and Long-Term Care (MOHLTC), the Region of Peel and residents all share the cost of long-term care.
- The Ministry of Health and Long-Term Care (MOHLTC) provides funding for all long-term care homes in Ontario.
- The Region of Peel also contributes funding to the operations of our five long-term care centres to enhance the lives of residents.
- The amount residents pay for their accommodation is called a co-payment.
