Home Care Ontario

Home Care Ontario, The Voice of Home Care in Ontario™, is a 
member-based organization representing providers of quality home care services from across Ontario. For over 35 years, Home Care Ontario has promoted the growth and development of home care as a key pillar of Ontario’s health care system through advocacy, knowledge transfer, thought leadership and member service.

Home Care Ontario’s government-funded and family-funded home care service provider organizations are responsible for supporting a combined 880,000+ patients per year providing more than 70M hours of care, including nursing care, home support services, personal care, physiotherapy, occupational therapy, respiratory therapy, infusion pharmacy, social work, dietetics, speech language therapy and medical equipment and supplies in the home to individuals of all ages.

They are committed to advancing high-quality, accessible, and sustainable home care across Ontario. Home Care Ontario believes that the home is the heart of health care, and their mission is to ensure people receive the care they need where they want to be most: at home.

The Chief Executive Officer

After 27 years of outstanding leadership, Home Care Ontario’s CEO, Sue VanderBent, is retiring and the Board of Directors is seeking a new leader to further advocate for the critical role of home care in an evolving health care landscape.

The new Chief Executive Officer (CEO) will provide visionary, collaborative, and strategic leadership to take Home Care Ontario into its next transformational phase. With the support of a highly engaged Board of Directors, this leader will represent the association in advocacy efforts, policy discussions, and health sector initiatives. They will embrace the refinement and execution of the 2025-2029 Strategic Plan, currently in draft form, while advancing the mandate of the organization. They will build and maintain strong relationships with government, media, partners and member organizations. The new CEO will continue to create value, engaging and supporting existing members while driving membership growth.

This new leader will bring an understanding of Ontario’s health care system and a commitment to home care as a pillar of that system. They will have proven success in building effective advocacy and government relations strategies, as well as demonstrated acumen in developing partnerships and alliances with senior leaders in Ontario’s health system, with the board of directors and staff. They will be a strategic thinker with strong operational, financial, and organizational leadership skills coupled with political acuity.  This new leader will be an advocate for large and small home care organizations and be able to balance the needs of both. Experience in both public and private healthcare would be an asset; as well as knowledge and understanding of the home care sector.
