About Home Care in Fergus

Senior home care in Fergus — right where they belong.

Fergus is Wellington County's Scottish gem — a beautiful stone town of approximately 21,000 in the Grand River valley, famous for the Fergus Scottish Festival and Highland Games and for the remarkable preservation of its 19th-century limestone architecture. Elora, adjacent to Fergus, adds the dramatic Elora Gorge to this community's already exceptional natural and cultural assets — creating a twin-community that is among Ontario's most beautiful and livable.

Fergus's senior population is quintessentially small-town Ontario — predominantly Scottish-heritage families whose roots in Centre Wellington go back to the community's founding in the 1830s, alongside newer arrivals drawn by the town's beauty and the outstanding quality of life in Wellington County. The Fergus seniors who have lived near the Grand River their entire lives are not going to leave it — and RoyalCare's role is to make staying possible.

Centre Wellington's position between Guelph and Orangeville and its strong agricultural character mean RoyalCare's rural placement capabilities are relevant throughout the township. Farming families in the Elora Road corridor, Shand Dam area, and surrounding townships access our services through the Centre Wellington community.

Groves Memorial Community Hospital in Fergus provides acute care for Centre Wellington. Our Wellington County coordinator team is integrated with their discharge planning process and can arrange home care for Fergus residents within 24–48 hours of discharge.
