Middlesex London Paramedic Service

Senior Care Path Summary

Middlesex-London Paramedic Service runs a Community Paramedicine for Long-Term Care (CPLTC) program mandated by the Ministry of Long-Term Care. This service offers 24/7 access to paramedic-delivered non-emergent care in patients' homes for those waiting for long-term care placement, soon to be eligible for placement, or living with specific chronic conditions.

Community paramedics are specially trained to provide primary care services in the home, working under the direction of a medical advisor and delegated authority from patients' primary care physicians or palliative care providers. They can perform a range of healthcare services beyond the traditional emergency response role, supporting patients to age in place during the transition period.

The service also operates the Mobile Paramedic Outreach Program (MPOP) in Strathroy and surrounding communities, providing healthcare assessments and navigation support for marginalized patients who lack usual healthcare access. Both programs focus on vulnerable populations and improving equity in healthcare.

Seniors waiting for long-term care, those assessed as eligible for placement, or those with chronic conditions who need ongoing support at home can be referred through their primary care provider or Home Community Care Support Services.
