Senior Home Care in Timmins, Ontario.

Timmins is the largest city in area in Canada that is not a territorial capital — a vast mining city of approximately 42,000 spread across 2,961 square kilometres of the Canadian Shield in Cochrane District. Timmins was built by gold — the Hollinger Mine and Dome Mine made Timmins famous around the world — and the mining heritage, the multicultural workforce of Finnish, Italian, French-Canadian, and Polish miners who came to extract the Shield's riches, and the extraordinary Northern character of this community define Timmins to this day.

Timmins's senior population reflects this remarkable multicultural mining heritage. Finnish-speaking seniors in the Schumacher area, Italian-speaking retirees from the McIntyre and Moneta mining communities, and French-speaking seniors throughout the Cochrane District all call Timmins home. RoyalCare's language matching capabilities extend to Timmins — Finnish, Italian, and French are all requested languages in this unique Northern city.

Timmins's Indigenous community has connections to Mattagami First Nation, Moose Cree First Nation, and other Cree and Anishinaabe communities throughout the Cochrane District. RoyalCare approaches care for Indigenous elders in the Timmins area with deep cultural respect for both Cree and Ojibwe traditions.

Timmins and District Hospital provides acute care for the city and surrounding Cochrane District communities. Our Northern Ontario coordinator team coordinates with their discharge planning process for Timmins residents.
