What is a Personal Support Worker (PSW)?
"Personal Support Workers provide care to any person who requires personal assistance with activities of daily living (ADL). They may also provide additional care as delegated by an RHP as needed and when it can be performed safely and within Provincial legislation. PSW’s provide personal care and related paraprofessional services in accordance with an established plan of care. They are typically involved in both personal care tasks and incidental activities of daily living such as housekeeping, meal preparation, socialization, and companionship. However, the Role and Responsibilities of the PSW have increased slightly, with growth occurring yearly to meet the demands of our vulnerable sector."

What makes me different?
As a Personal Support Worker (PSW) I take my job seriously. The key to a good relationship is communication, a positive attitude, honesty, flexibility, trust, and empathy. I do my best to connect well with my clients and handle their various needs with tenderness and warmth. My goal is to build clients’ self-esteem and self-confidence, encourage them to be as active as possible, to be as independent as possible and to live their best life.
