RCFs are a vital yet poorly understood part of Hamilton’s housing continuum. Our team created this reference guide to make the information about RCFs more accessible and the people who live in them. This resource is geared toward those who may refer clients or patients to RCFs. RCFs are compared to retirement homes and long-term care homes to highlight distinctions across these settings.

We encourage health and social care providers and organizations to download and share the resource guide. This reference guide may also be helpful to people and families who are hoping to learn more about some of the housing options available in Hamilton.
