Help with personal care can mean the difference between people living independently and giving up their homes. The demand for personal support workers is greater than ever and keeps growing in order to meet the needs of a retiring population.

  • Learn in small clinical and lab groups under the guidance of experienced faculty.
  • Practise monitoring and recording changes to clients’ conditions in Loyalist College’s Human Simulation Lab with manikins simulating realistic scenarios.

  • Learn how to shop for clients and provide nutritious meals on a balanced budget.
  • Learn and practise skills in a virtual learning environment (VLE) as an avatar.
