Define the PCA role in your setting

Personal care aide titles and responsibilities vary between organizations. Describe the work you need performed instead of relying on the title alone. Include the relevant training, experience and documents for the opportunity.

If either a PCA or a PSW can do the work, one posting can accept both. Your team still confirms that the duties and each professional's qualifications fit the opportunity.

Give applicants enough information to choose

Set out the schedule, location, rate and any onboarding steps before the shift. Independent professionals use that information to decide whether to apply.

Staffy provides the marketplace for posting shifts, coordinating bookings and processing payments. Your organization reviews fit and the applicable account terms before confirming a booking. Availability is specific to the role, location and shift.

Frequently asked questions

Can we accept a PCA on a posting that also accepts PSWs?

Yes, when either role is suitable for the work. The posting option can accept both PSW and PCA applicants. State the actual duties and required training so applicants and your team can assess suitability.

What duties and qualifications should we include for a PCA?

Describe the personal-care support needed in your setting, such as help with meals, dressing, mobility or personal hygiene. Specify the relevant experience, training, client-required documents and orientation. Requirements vary by client and shift.

Who decides which PCA is booked?

Independent professionals request the shifts they want. Your organization reviews the applicants and decides whom to book. Staffy provides the marketplace and onboarding workflow; an application alone is not a confirmed booking.

What happens if an applicant has less experience than we requested?

When you set a minimum experience level in the posting, applicants below it are marked Pending review. Your team can review them separately against the work and requirements you have specified.

Can we search for a PCA who has worked with us before?

Yes. Use Previous Workers to search by name or shift date and review that professional's history with your organization before arranging another booking.
