Home & Community Support Services of Grey-Bruce

Home & Community Support Services of Grey-Bruce HCSS staff & volunteers provide support to promote independence & enhance quality of life for seniors and adults-with-disabilities. www.hcssgreybruce.com

We believe that people are worthy of human dignity and respect, and deserve the support to maintain quality of life and independence within their community. We believe that people deserve a caring environment, which promotes a personal responsibility towards a healthy existence. We believe that people working in partnership with a collaborative spirit through volunteer service, is the best method for providing a social support system of services to assist in the individual attaining a level of personal well-being. Such a system then is: consumer centered, well coordinated, resource sensitive, well planned, accountable, equitably accessible and offers an array of services directed towards optimizing and maintaining quality of well-being for individuals within their community. Our purpose is to manage and deliver Ministry of Health approved services to eligible seniors and physically challenged adults within Grey and Bruce Counties, including the City of Owen Sound. The services we provide are to assist clients in maintaining their independence within their community and daily lives.

Batter up! ⚾

We had a blast at Day Away with a fun baseball-themed morning — complete with personalized ball cards for our clients!

These cards were such a hit and brought plenty of smiles as we celebrated teamwork, community, and a little friendly competition. 💛

🍂🌬️Layer for Changing Weather

Fall weather can be tricky — warm and sunny one moment, cool and breezy the next! 🌤️

Dressing in light, comfortable layers makes it easy to adapt and stay safe, no matter what the day brings.

And don’t forget a cozy sweater or jacket when heading out — comfort is key this season!

⛺ We’re Out of Tents... Can You Help? 💛

There’s still a little more than a month to go before our overnight services open for the season, and we’ve officially run out of tents.

For many of our Participants, a tent isn’t just shelter; it’s safety, privacy, and a small measure of security while they navigate incredibly difficult circumstances.

If you have a tent you’re willing to donate, please drop it off at:
📍 Safe 'N Sound
310 8th St E, Owen Sound
🕘 9am–3pm, any day of the week

Every single donation makes a difference. Thank you for showing up for your neighbours. 💙

What an incredible day! 🎉✨

A huge THANK YOU to everyone who walked, donated, volunteered, and cheered us on at The Grand Parade this past weekend. Because of you, we were able to come together as a community and show our seniors and their caregivers just how much they are valued and supported.

Together, we surpassed our $20,000 fundraising goal — making an incredible impact for seniors and caregivers across Grey-Bruce! 🥳

Your generosity will make a real, lasting difference in the lives of local seniors, helping to provide rides to medical appointments, friendly visits, meals, Day Away programming and so much more.

From all of us at HCSS Grey-Bruce, thank you for making this event a success and for walking with purpose and heart. 💛

🏡🍁Home Safety Check

As the seasons shift, it’s a great time to do a quick safety check at home.

🍂 Watch out for tripping hazards like fallen leaves on steps, wet floors, or loose rugs. Caregivers can help by taking a walk through the home and yard to make sure everything is clear and safe.

A few small changes can help prevent slips, falls, and injuries this fall!
