Regulations under the Health and Supportive Care Provider Oversight Authority Act

Aug 19 2024 Letter re HSCPOA Regulations

Hello all
On September 17, 2024, the OCHU and CUPE Ontario Health Care Workers Coordinating Committee wrote a letter to Doug Ford’s office asking for a meeting about the regulations under the Health and Supportive Care Provider Oversight Authority Act. We have attached a copy of the letter for your records.
OCHU, along with HCWCC, will hold a town hall call with all of our PSWs to discuss the Regulations and what they mean for the PSW classification. The meeting will be held on the phone on November 18th at 7:00 p.m. Once details have been confirmed, we will send them out.
Any help you can provide to get PSW online would be greatly appreciated.
Michael, Kevin, Sharon
