May 19 is Personal Support Worker Day!

May 9, 2025

Since 2010, Ontario has celebrated Personal Support Worker (PSW) Day on May 19. It is a time to recognize and honour the essential care, support and empathy these dedicated workers give to some of the most vulnerable Ontarians.

PSWs play a vital role for patients, residents and clients across the health-care system, ensuring their comfort and safety, maintaining their dignity and helping them stay as independent as possible. We are proud to count personal support workers among its members.
