Some agencies may require a minimum number of hours per visit, and some may also offer discounts if you would like to hire a PSW for more than a certain number of hours. Although some home care agencies in Ontario make their pricing publicly available, oftentimes you will need to directly contact the agency to get a rate.

Each of our caregivers is thoroughly screened, interviewed, and must pass a background check. Our caregivers are bonded and insured as well as covered by Workplace Safety and Insurance Board (WSIB). All caregivers receive a thorough introduction to our company’s policies, our approach to care and our internal continual education opportunities.

We understand that hiring a caregiver is an unfamiliar experience for many seniors and that this may be the first time you introduce a caregiver to the home. To help alleviate any anxieties that arise, a senior care manager will accompany the staff member to introduce them to your loved one at the beginning of service and provide any client-specific training to deal with unique and complex care situations.

Long-term care facilities provide 24-hour resident-focused care for the elderly who need nursing care. Sometimes the government-mandated minimum level of care just isn’t enough for many seniors. Here is what Promyse offers to help:

• If your parent or loved one needs to be bathed or washed more than twice a week (the minimum standard set by the Ontario government), we can assist with this.
• We can help with feeding, eating, and drinking. 
• Staff at nursing homes may be stretched thin. We can help frail seniors with toileting, general hygiene, and other daily tasks to keep them comfortable and safe.

We can provide companionship, socialization, and mental stimulation for your parent or loved one in a nursing home.
