The Ontario Personal Support Workers Association

The Ontario Personal Support Worker Association is the Professional Association for PSWs across our Nation. OPSWA is managed by PSWs for PSWs and public safety. We understand the difficulties PSWs deal with everyday. OPSWA represents thousands of Personal Support Workers across Ontario and continues to grow. Our goal is to make the PSW a profession of choice in the Health Care field and not just as a stepping stone. PSWs work closely with all of societies most vulnerable individuals. We at OPSWA believe in due diligence and our PSWs must meet certain criteria in order to be an OPSWA Registered PSW. All of our PSWs have an annual National Police Check completed at NO extra cost to them. Since OPSWA is operated by your fellow Peers, OPSWA PSWs also have opportunities to obtain extra training at a discounted price, discounts at major retailers, liability insurance and so much more! Mission Statement: To continuously strive to improve the professional status of the Personal Support Workers of Ontario through advocacy for excellence and consistency in training, services, working conditions, and value to those we serve.
