Personal Support Worker (Current Employee) - Collingwood, ON - 30 August 2019
Featured review
GotCare selected this as a representative reviewI have only been with Got Care for about a month but it is so refreshing to be employed by a company who allows me to be me. I feel that they trust in my ability to do my job to the best standards and my clients feel freedom to make their own times and choices.

Great work/life balance. It takes awhile to get clients but when you do, you get to create your own schedule.
Pros
management, pay, flexibility with schedule, good collaboration with other professionals
Cons
Takes a while to get clients when you live in a specific area

First time working with an agency, wasn’t to sure what to expect but it was good.
Personal Support Worker (PSW) (Former Employee) - Muncey, ON - 4 February 2022
I worked for GOTCARE as a private home care PSW. The part I liked about GOTCARE is they have clients who are close to you so you’re not traveling to far to care for them. Very flexible with scheduling, I was going to school and working. I was able to choose as many hours as I liked and I picked up more when I could. They have an app to track your hours and to clock in & out of which client you’re with that day.
Pros
Clock in app Close clients Flexible schedule
Cons
The pay could be better

You feel appreciated!
DSW/PSW (Former Employee) - Southwest Middlesex, ON - 29 October 2020
I have to recommend Gotcare! I actually felt that I was important, a person, not just an employee. When I called I had someone answer the phone with "hello (insert my name)" it was a breath of fresh air. I didn't have to jump through hoops to speak to someone. Although I only worked with Gotcare for almost a year, it was a year of non-stress, as I knew if I had a problem, they were only a phone call away! Amazing company to work for!! Looking forward to being offered another job soon!
Pros
Flexible hours, you coordinate with your client the hours that are best for both of you.
Cons
You never know when your assignment will end. :(

You get work with flexible hours at gotcare
PSW (Former Employee) - Thornhill, ON - 30 July 2019
So having worked with this company for 8 months of time as a home to home PSW i can confidently say this group of individuals who organize the company manage it well. A typical day at work consists of having a printed schedule detailing the patient information, (address, start to end time, and even distance measured in KM) You then travel to the address attending to the patient in standard PSW practice. In all honesty they allow you to pick the hours, and after that you tend to the patient on your own terms especially if you are familiar with care giving at home and of course you will discuss how to care for the patient with the patient and their families. Gotcare uses a phone app that helps you clock in and out your hours. This allows you to manage and track your hours easily. I am not too savvy with technology and the management staff still helped me with all my questions anytime i called them. That was the hardest part of the job handling technology app. Finally be prepared to drive around the GTA because you will be scheduled at different places thankfully at the usual scheduled times. Got care Is very welcoming !
Pros
Flexible hours and very welcoming and understanding staff
Cons
Driving around
