In other cases, it can include sitting quietly nearby to ensure immediate response if the client needs assistance. In some instances PSWs may take a few moments of rest to be ready for all levels of care.

Our care protocols include ongoing assessment of their condition, progress on their recovery, their mental state and overall well-being.
