Attendant care program gets government funding People with physical disabilities in Elgin, Middlesex, Huron, Perth, and Oxford counties will have greater access to attendant care as a result of provincial funding. Cheshire Homes of London will receive $629,000 annually to expand its Cheshire Outreach Attendant Care Program to more people living at home in the Lon don area, Zanana Akande, Ontario's Minister of Community and Social Services, announced today. The Outreach Attendant Care Program provides day-to-day assis tance to people with physical dis abilities to allow them to continue to live in their own homes as self- sufficiently as possible. "This government believes that people with physical disabilities, and seniors should be supported in living independently at home in their own communities," said Mrs. Akande. "Funding of services such as the Cheshire Outreach Attendant Care program is part of the govern ment's Long-Term Care initiatives, designed to achieve those goals." Cheshire Homes of London is part of an international organization that provides services to help peo ple with physical disabilities to live in the community by helping indi viduals with their personal needs, as well as day-to-day assistance. Such care may include help with dressing, grooming, cooking and other activities. The Cheshire Outreach Attendant Care Program is the only attendant care program in the London area and serves more than 200 people with physical disabilities.
