Meet Ali Cada — The Heart Behind Aruga 💜

Aruga Home Care was founded by Ali Cada, a recognized leader in creative engagement and dementia care. With years of experience supporting seniors and families, Ali has dedicated his life to building a model of care that goes beyond meeting basic needs — one that inspires connection, dignity, and joy.

Rooted in values of empathy, respect, and family, Ali’s vision for Aruga is simple yet powerful: to transform home care into a space where seniors are not just cared for, but truly seen and celebrated.

His expertise in integrating art, music, and storytelling into daily care has made him a voice for change in the senior care community — and a trusted partner for families across Calgary.

💜 At Aruga, Ali’s mission is clear: empower lives, nurture connection, and reimagine what home care can be.

💜 5 Caregiver Tips to Make Each Day a Little Brighter

Caring for a loved one can be both meaningful and challenging. Here are simple ways to bring more ease and joy into your routine:

1️⃣ Turn up the music – Play their favourite songs to spark memories and lift moods.
2️⃣ Keep it simple – Write down 3 “must-do” tasks and let the rest wait.
3️⃣ Find the funny – Share a laugh, a silly story, or a short game—it lightens the day.
4️⃣ Step outside – Fresh air and sunshine do wonders for both body and mind.
5️⃣ Ask for help – You don’t have to do it all. Support is strength, not weakness.

At Aruga, we believe caring for yourself is part of caring for your loved one.

As summer winds down and new routines begin, caregiving keeps moving forward. Caregivers deserve just as much care as the loved ones they support. That’s why our in-home respite care is designed to lift some weight off your shoulders while your loved one stays safe, engaged, and connected at home. 💜

✨ And here’s even better news: you may qualify for government-funded home care services.
Aruga is an authorized provider through Client Directed Home Care Invoicing (CDHCI) — a program that helps eligible families access support with greater financial flexibility.

Give yourself the space to recharge and let us help care for the people who matter most.

Connection shapes every moment of care at Aruga.

We walk by your side on bright and difficult days alike. We share tea and stories. We laugh together during art sessions. We hold hands through difficult memories. These simple acts build trust, dignity and joy.

Our caregivers listen, notice and respond with compassion. They build relationships not only with those in our care but also with families who walk this journey with us. Together, we create spaces where every person feels seen, valued and understood.

Connection gives care its meaning. It turns routine into relationship. It honours the whole person in spirit, in history and in humanity. 💜

Aruga is not traditional home care.

Where others see tasks, we see possibilities.
Where others provide basic support, we create connection.
Where others follow routine, we spark joy.

💜 At Aruga, we weave creativity into compassionate care — transforming daily moments into meaningful experiences through art, music, storytelling, and genuine human connection.

💜 We honour individuality, celebrate dignity, and empower seniors to live fully at home.

💜 Families trust us because we bring more than care — we bring life, colour, and heart into every day.

This is what makes us different.
This is Aruga.

Wondering if it’s time to explore home care for a parent?

Sometimes the signs are subtle:

☕ Forgotten meals or medications
🧺 Laundry and housework piling up
📅 Withdrawing from friends or activities they once enjoyed
🚗 Hesitation or difficulty getting to appointments

These changes don’t mean your parent is losing independence — they may simply need a little extra support to keep living life on their terms.

At Aruga, we work with families to create personalized care plans that fit your parent’s needs, lifestyle, and personality. From companionship to specialized dementia support, our goal is to make each day safer, easier, and more connected.

💬 If you’re starting to wonder, let’s talk. We can help you explore options and see what’s possible.

Aruga was inspired by our founder Ali’s mother. 💜✨

Her warmth, kindness, patience, and respect for others have always shown him what true care looks like. She builds genuine connections, brings dignity to every moment, and makes people feel valued in ways that leave a lasting mark.

Those values became the foundation of Aruga.

Every visit, every conversation, every smile we share carries the influence of her example.

Because when care comes from the heart, it changes everything. 💜
