Before you apply
How AI is used in hiring
We use artificial intelligence (AI) to help screen and assess applicants for this position. AI tools compare the information in each application with the requirements of the job and suggest an order for review. You may be invited to answer pre-screening questions in a chat that uses AI to word the questions and record your answers. Written answers and interview transcripts may be assessed with AI against job-related criteria. Your face, voice and emotions are never analyzed. A person on our hiring team reviews every result and makes every hiring decision. You can ask to deal with a person instead at any stage.

Why this language is required
Residents of the Gatineau home receive their care in French and most residents of the Ottawa home speak English. Each PSW works at one home, so only that home’s language is required.
About the job
Maple Grove Care Homes runs two long-term care homes, one in Alta Vista (Ottawa) and one in the Hull sector of Gatineau. Northline Staffing is recruiting personal support workers for both homes. You will be employed by Northline and work regular lines at one home.
What you will do
- Help residents with bathing, dressing, grooming, meals and getting around, following each person's plan of care
- Transfer residents safely with mechanical and sit-to-stand lifts, always with a partner
- Notice changes in a resident's condition and report them to the nurse on shift
- Chart the care you gave before the end of your shift
- Spend time with residents and families; many residents live with dementia
What you need
- A PSW certificate (Ontario) or a DEP Assistance à la personne (Quebec)
- Current CPR and first aid
- Availability for days and evenings, plus every other weekend
- English for the Ottawa home or French for the Gatineau home
Nice to have
- Dementia care training such as GPA
- Long-term care or home care experience
Lines are 22.5 to 37.5 hours a week. Northline pays weekly, and evening and weekend premiums apply. Uniforms and paid orientation are provided.
