The Personal Support Worker (PSW) program will equip students with the relevant industry skill sets required to help patients, clients, and residents with various conditions and health care needs in a nurturing environment. As you care for patients with compassion and help them with things like personal hygiene, making meals, running their homes, and dealing with different long-term conditions, you often form close and rewarding relationships with them.
The Personal Support Worker courses will cover all home and health-related services that people with physical disabilities, cognitive problems, and long-term and short-term illnesses need. The skills and knowledge you learn will give you the freedom to work in places like hospitals, homes, schools, community residential agencies, and long-term or chronic-care facilities.
The Personal Support Worker program offers a fast-track, hands-on skills training program with a practicum guaranteed, which can often lead to employment in the vibrant city of Toronto and Brampton. You can become a qualified Personal Support Worker and enter the in-demand healthcare field in less than 9 months.
