We're owned and run by nurses — our whole team, right down to the scheduler. So when your family needs care, you don't just get a caregiver. You get a nurse in your corner: someone who knows your situation, helps you make sense of it, and makes sure nothing falls through the cracks. From companionship to complex and palliative care, across Vancouver, the Lower Mainland and the Sunshine Coast.
Need care in under 24 hours? We can help.
You're checking in every day. Cooking, cleaning, driving to appointments, lying awake wondering if you're missing something. You'd do anything for them — and you're exhausted, and maybe a little resentful that it's fallen mostly to you, and then guilty for feeling that way at all. Or maybe you're the one far away. Another city, another time zone — carrying the worry and the organizing from a distance, leaning on a sibling who helps when you ask but won't take it on, and quietly terrified that something will happen when no one's there to notice. We understand both of those people, because we help them every day. When a family comes to Proof of Care, the weight doesn't just get shared with a caregiver — it gets shared with a nurse who takes real responsibility for what happens next. That's the difference you feel in the first week: a nurse is now keeping watch alongside you, and keeping you in the loop wherever you are, so you're not the only one who has to.
Most of us don't have a nurse in the family. Someone to call about the fall, the new medication, the symptom that might be nothing — or might not. Someone who tells you what to do, who to call, and how to say it so you're actually heard. Someone who helps you walk into a doctor's office knowing what to ask, and walk out understanding what was said. That's what a nurse-led company gives you that a staffing agency can't. Our nurses don't just oversee a care plan — they help your family navigate a health system that isn't built for tired, overwhelmed people. They notice what gets missed. They help you advocate for yourself and the person you love, so your concerns don't get quietly set aside. And they stay close enough to catch small changes before they become emergencies. This is why nurse-owned matters. Anyone can send a caregiver. We give you someone in your corner.
Hiring care shouldn't mean a nurse shows up once and disappears. At Proof of Care, a nurse is assigned to your family and stays involved throughout: checking in on a regular basis, seeing how things are really going, and adjusting the plan as needs change. This nurse oversight is built into every care plan, at no extra charge — because it's not an add-on to what we do, it's the heart of it.
Tell a nurse what your family is facing — there's no pressure, just someone ready to help you find your way.
Families find us at every stage. Wherever you are, the plan is built and overseen by a nurse — from complex nursing care and palliative care at home, to end-of-life care, recovery and transition after a hospital stay, and everyday support and respite for family caregivers.
You don't have to spend life's final chapter in a hospital bed. With the right nursing support, the end of life can happen at home — in a familiar room, near a window, with family who can come and go without visiting hours. For many people it's the more peaceful, more dignified place to be, and with a nurse-led team behind you, it's a well-supported one.

Fifteen years ago, before hiring a single caregiver, our founder spent the better part of a year designing the company she wished existed — defining every role, every standard, and the right way to do each task, until there was a clear blueprint for what exceptional care actually looks like. She wanted the dependable consistency of a well-run franchise, and was determined never to become one, because real passion and authenticity can't be sold to a stranger buying a business model. That blueprint is why the care holds together. We don't hire every caregiver who applies — we hire the ones who meet the standard she set, treat them well, and keep them. And we've made a promise we've never broken: to never grow faster than our ability to deliver exceptional care.
We're nurse-owned and nurse-managed — right down to the scheduler — caring for BC families since 2011. That's 15 years of experience families trust.
A verifiable, third-party credential: we're listed on Vancouver Coastal Health's approved home care providers list.

"Proof of Care was a godsend! They stepped in at one of the most difficult times in our life. They were able to assist us first in the hospital, then at home, then at the retirement home. There was a real bond of trust among us all."
76 / Burnaby
"Proof of Care's caregivers have been so kind, patient, responsible and genuinely caring to Mom. They are not only up to the task of making sure she’s safe, clean, fed, (all the while monitoring any changes in health they observe), but they also make her laugh. I love the online shift information too."

"We had tried another company before coming to Proof of Care, but we didn't like the price or the constant changes in carers. Proof went out of their way to take on tasks to make my life easier and had a great rapport with my wife. I am grateful for the assistance Proof of Care provided, which much improved the care my wife was receiving and gave me a little bit of a respite each day."
