Contact Us"A number of years ago Mom became a client of VCHSS, first in Iona and then in her home in Ottawa Brook. Your team evolved into a very important part of her extended family. Our family cannot fully put into words what your care and support meant over the years, but especially in Mom’s final weeks. Your ability to help us so quickly helped take away so much of the stress and challenges we were experiencing. Thank you doesn’t seem to be enough to express the gratitude we feel."Family of Glenna Gaudley
