Cambridge, Ontario, Canada Michal K. - Private Household Full time

Are you looking for meaningful work that you can feel good about? As a personal support worker, you can truly make a positive impact in the life of another person in need.

I'm a gentleman with Muscular Dystrophy who refuses to be institutionalized; instead, I am hiring a small, close-knit support team to help me live with dignity and independence in my own home.

You'll get the benefit of full-time hours, a relaxed atmosphere, and the consistency of working with a single person in a single location.

If you are tired of the hustle and bustle of healthcare corporations, then come join me in reimagining private home care


This permanent, full-time position is perfect for those who are looking for a longer-term commitment, who are passionate about providing quality care, and who understand how critical it is to be reliable as a caregiver.

For the night shifts, you will have the flexibility to sleep in between providing care.
