**_Nursing Student (Barrie, ON 2021)_**
I had a wonderful experience working with Home Care Assistance of Barrie as a personal support worker. They are a very responsive and supportive company and all the staff members are so welcoming and encouraging. They take the time to appreciate their employees and check in at regular times to ensure you are happy with how things are going and they always ask for feedback on how they could ever improve your experience. Excellent employer,-. I should also point out how much they strive for excellent care to their clients. They have so many resources available that can be used for different client needs that make their services above and beyond what other companies offer. They really care about the work they are involved in and it really shows.
**_Caregiver (Bradford, ON 2021)_**
I have worked for many different agencies and this is by far the best one out there. The managers are the absolute best, I have never had an employer that genuinely cares for me as much as these guys do I haven't had any problems or complaints but I am confident that if something were to happen it would be dealt with immediately. Everyone they hire is also amazing, I love coming into work and getting to see them. Thank you guys for everything you do
