- Description
- A Little Britain woman is concerned there are different rules for personal support workers (PSWs) who see people in their own homes versus the PSWs who work in retirement and long-term care.
PSWs who provide homecare do not have to take a COVID test. Instead, they rely on self-evaluation - something that doesn't sit well with her, considering her grandmother relies on home care. - Publisher
