Personal Support Workers assist with the tasks of daily living. Services are provided in homes and apartments in the community, in longterm facilities, congregate housing settings and day programs.
Personal Support Workers must develop a broad range of abilities beyond dexterity skills. They must provide not only for the comfort, safety and wellbeing of their clients, but also demonstrate sensitivity and respect for those in their care. The attitude, abilities and approach of the worker are critical to the well-being and health of the people they support.
Students registered in Personal Support Worker Program within the Ontario College of Technology (OCOT) have the opportunity to participate in a number of clinical placements. Mon Sheong Richmond Hill LTCC , Bayview Retirement Home, Markhaven Inc, Huronia Guest Home, and Green life Retirement Residence Trenton Inc and are the institutions we’ve been proud to work with.
