To be eligible for consideration, all Advisory Committee appointees must fulfill the requirements set out in the Health and Supportive Care Providers Oversight Authority Act, 2021 and regulations.

Ontario Regulation 214/24 – Personal Support Worker Advisory Committee sets out the legislated composition of the Advisory Committee. Ontario Regulation 213/24 – Rules for Advisory Committees sets out the rules for the Advisory Committee.

The functions of the Advisory Committee, together with the composition of the Committee and the *Eligibility requirements can be found on the Advisory Committee web page.

  • are registered with HSCPOA as PSWs;
  • represent the interests of persons who receive health services or supportive care services from PSWs;
  • provide education to PSWs;
  • represent organizations that advocate for organizations that employ PSWs;
  • individuals who represent organizations that employ PSWs; and

IMPORTANT NOTE:

The HSCPOA Board intends to appoint the members of the PSW Advisory Committee by December 1st 2024 when the legislation and regulations creating the PSW Advisory Committee come into force. With respect to the PSW applicants, the HSCPOA Board will only be able to appoint PSWs who are registered with HSCPOA once PSWs are legally permitted to be registered with HSCPOA. PSWs will only be legally allowed to register with HSCPOA beginning December 1, 2024.

For now, HSCPOA encourages applications from individuals who are currently working as PSWs. The HSCPOA Board will consider those applications and will approve PSW members of the PSW Advisory Committee on a tentative basis until those applicants are able to complete the registration process. Any applicant approved by the Board for a PSW position on the Advisory Committee will only be formally appointed once they are registered with HSCPOA.
