Original job description

Personal Support Worker (PSW) - Home Care | Flexible Hours | Cobourg/Port Hope, ON

Looking for a PSW role where your work feels meaningful, your schedule is predictable, and your skills are truly valued?

At Home Instead, you’ll support older adults in their homes through consistent, relationship-based care. This is your opportunity to build trust with clients, work independently with strong team support, and be part of a care model that puts people first - both clients and Care Professionals.

We offer flexible scheduling with 15-40 hours per week available, including part-time and full-time opportunities.

What You Can Expect in This Role

  • One client at a time - no rushing between multiple residents
  • Longer, more meaningful visits
  • Supportive team that values your work
  • Competitive pay: $19.50-$23.00/hour + bonus and growth opportunities
  • Paid mileage
  • Ongoing support and communication from the office
  • Shifts to fit your work-life balance (days, evenings, overnights, weekends)
  • Ongoing communication and support from a dedicated office team
  • Paid training and opportunities for continued learning and development
  • A supportive, people-first culture that values your contribution


What You’ll Be Doing

As a Personal Support Worker (PSW), you will provide essential non-medical care that helps seniors remain safe, comfortable, and independent at home:

  • Assisting with personal care routines (bathing, grooming, dressing, toileting, and daily routines)
  • Supporting mobility, safe transfers, and fall prevention techniques
  • Providing companionship and emotional support to reduce isolation
  • Preparing simple, nutritious meals and snacks
  • Completing light housekeeping and maintaining a safe home environment
  • Offering medication reminders according to care plans
  • Supporting clients with cognitive changes, including dementia care
  • Assisting with errands or transportation when required


What We’re Looking For

  • PSW certificate and caregiving experience
  • A valid driver’s license and vehicle
  • Favourable professional references
  • Clear Vulnerable Sector
  • Ability to take the initiative
  • Collaborative team player
  • Passion for providing high-quality, relationship-based care


Why Join Home Instead?

This is more than a shift-based job - it’s a chance to build a career in community care where relationships matter.

At Home Instead, you’ll be supported by a responsive team, matched with consistent clients, and given the time and trust to deliver care the way it should be delivered.

Apply today for a Personal Support Worker in Cobourg & Port Hope where you can feel valued and make a meaningful impact every day.
