When your loved one begins to need more help at home, it’s natural to feel overwhelmed.You might wonder:

  • Who can we trust?

  • What kind of help is available?

  • Will they treat my parent with dignity and compassion?


That’s where Personal Support Workers (PSWs) come in and at APlus Homecare Services, our PSWs are more than just trained professionals.They’re companions, advocates, and everyday heroes who bring warmth and care directly into the homes of families across the GTA.

👵 What Exactly Does a PSW Do? What a PSW Can Do for Your Family?

A PSW supports seniors in their day-to-day lives, helping them stay safe, independent, and emotionally well. This includes:

  • Assistance with hygiene and personal care (bathing, grooming, dressing)

  • Meal preparation and nutritional support

  • Medication reminders to promote health and prevent complications

  • Companionship - simply being there to talk, listen, and connect

  • Mobility support - including help getting around the house or out to appointments

  • Accompaniment to places of worship, local events, or walks in the community

At APlus, we believe care is personal. Our PSWs get to know your loved one’s preferences, stories, and routines because comfort and dignity matter.
