Elder Caregiver and Personal Support Worker Recruitment

At Portico, we recruit Personal Support Workers and Elder Caregivers for families who need compassionate, highly reliable and trustworthy care at home for their aging parents so they know their loved ones are enjoying lives defined by dignity, safety, compassion, and professionalism. Elder Caregiving is one of the most intimate and high‑trust roles in any household, and we take that responsibility very seriously. We also have significant experience in placing highly qualified professionals in positions of trust.

​

We look for caregivers who are not only experienced in the practical side of care — helping with mobility, medication routines, daily routines, and personal care — but who also have real warmth, intelligence, and sound judgment. Families are putting the wellbeing of a parent, grandparent, or loved one in the hands of a Caregiver, so we look for people who can be both professional and genuinely kind. A Caregiver can all have of the skills and certificates of their profession, but without the key ingredient of kindness, none of it truly matters. We understand that.

​

Portico places Personal Support Workers and Elder Caregivers who:

  • Understand the difference between being “helpful” and being “intrusive,” and always respect a person’s independence and dignity

  • Communicate clearly and calmly with both the care recipient and family members, so everyone feels informed and reassured

  • Remains calm under pressure and utilizes their skills without freezing

  • Have a high degree of empathy and intuitively understand when those under their care are having a difficult day

  • Are intelligent and able to adapt to the interests and hobbies of their employer

  • Can adapt to changing health needs, household dynamics, and emotional moments without becoming overwhelmed

  • Bring consistency and reliability to their work, so the family can feel confident that the right person is there every day

 

If you’re looking for a Personal Support Worker or Elder Caregiver who can offer reliable, thoughtful, skilled, and respectful care for the ones you love, we’d be happy to speak with you.

Contact Portico to discuss your caregiving needs, and we’ll help you find a Caregiver who fits both the practical and emotional demands of the job.
