Meals on Wheels delivers hot meals to the homes of people so that they can continue to live at home instead of in an institution. This supports their independence and is an essential component of home support. It also makes it possible for family caregivers to take a break by freeing them from the task of meal preparation.
The program provides support to people for their nutritional needs and is available to:
- seniors;
- people who are convalescing;
- people with a disability
- pregnant women
- family members who are caregivers;
The clienteles served and the eligibility conditions may vary from one Meals on Wheels provider to another. Information is available on the website of each Meals on Wheels provider.
