PSW HomeCare

Everyday Care That Makes All the Difference

Personal Care That Honors Independence and Dignity

Personal Support Workers (PSWs) are the backbone of in-home care, providing essential assistance with daily activities that help individuals remain safe, comfortable, and independent in their own homes. From bathing and dressing to meal preparation and companionship, our certified PSWs deliver compassionate care that respects each client’s dignity, preferences, and routines. Unlike medical nursing care, PSW services focus on the personal, practical, and emotional support that makes everyday life not just manageable, but meaningful.

Our PSWs are more than caregivers—they become trusted companions and advocates for your loved ones. With specialized training in dementia care, palliative support, safe mobility techniques, and behavioral management, our team is equipped to handle complex needs with patience, empathy, and professionalism.

Frequently Asked Questions

PSW Care FAQs—We're Here to Help

What's the difference between a PSW and a nurse?

Personal Support Workers focus on non-medical assistance with daily activities like bathing, dressing, meal preparation, and companionship, while nurses provide medical care such as wound management, injections, and medication administration.
