RPNs
The role of the RPN is as team leader and home area advocate. They perform to their full scope of practice as identified by the College of Nurses of Ontario. Their duties include: assessment, documentation, care plan development and updates, addressing resident and family concerns, dispensing medication, administering specific treatments, addressing care issues, ensuring that the care plan is implemented, as well as many other responsibilities.
PSWs
The Personal Support Worker (PSW) is the primary caregiver to the resident. The present certificate program requires nine months of college training. The role of PSWs has changed significantly over the years and now encompasses every aspect of the resident's personal care. Besides personal care, PSWs also deal with less tangible issues including: social, psychological and emotional needs, and behavioural issues. PSWs are required to provide individualized care for the rest of a person's life and at the same time maintain a passion for the job and a compassion for each resident for the length of their career. We are proud of our PSWs, and their commitment and dedication to our residents and Lakeland.
