Remarkable Moments
Good things are happening everyday at ParaMed. Whether it’s a brief encounter or a life changing event, we do everything we can to bring a remarkable moment into the homes of Canadians across the country daily.
We would like to thank the ParaMed Nurses Eleanor and Deidre for their care, continued support and compassion that they provided for our mom during her illness.
Eleanor and Deidre - Nursing, St.Catharine's, ON
We appreciated all the hard work and dedication. You made our lives easier knowing our mom was well cared-for.
Kenora, ON
Upon visiting a client for malnutrition and dehydration, it was noted that the clients fridge was empty and she had no means to get groceries. After a few phone calls, more frequent PSW care and cooking was arranged as well as grocery delivery. This was very rewarding and explains why we do what we do.
Personal Support, Oshawa, ON
Thank you so much for taking care of me when I was sick at my house. You were so very kind to me. People are very lucky when they get you for a nurse. Thanks again

Potential employee applications are reviewed by a member of our Human Resources team to determine if the person’s qualifications match our requirements. This includes a review of their education, experience, and responses to our on line questionnaire.. The most qualified candidates are contacted for a pre screen.
A Pre Screen consists of a phone call with a member of our Human Resources team. A representative calls the potential employee a series of questions to get more information about their qualifications, preferences and experience. This call lasts only 5-10 minutes. Following the call, responses are evaluated and the most qualified candidates are invited to participate in an in-person interview.
During the interview, we ask a series of questions to determine the potential employee’s suitability for the position. We recommend that candidates bring a resume and references and they may be asked to provide additional documents such as proof of education. The interview typically lasts 30-60 minutes. Following the interview, responses are compared against that of other candidates. If the candidate is successful, the next stage includes the completion of background checks.
Then the new employee begins their new career with a paid orientation at ParaMed!
