Nursing Care (RN-led) is clinical care delivered by a CNO-registered Registered Nurse covering wound care, medication administration, post-surgery recovery, tube care, vital signs monitoring, and medical escort. PSW is non-clinical daily living assistance covering bathing, dressing, meal preparation, mobility support, toileting, and companionship. Homemaker Services is household support for seniors who do not require clinical or personal care covering cleaning, laundry, meal preparation, grocery shopping, and light errands. Comparison table: Nursing Care is delivered by CNO-registered RNs, regulated by College of Nurses of Ontario. Full scope of clinical tasks: wound care, injections, IV therapy, tube feeds, vital signs, clinical assessment. Personal care included when clinically necessary. Visit durations: 4hr, 8hr, 12hr blocks. Same-day available with 2-hour notice. Languages: English, Cantonese, Mandarin. Not covered by OHIP (private pay, HSA, or insurance). PSW is delivered by certified PSWs (Ontario PSW program). No clinical tasks — PSWs cannot perform clinical procedures. Full personal care: bathing, dressing, grooming, toileting. Safe transfers, walking assistance, fall prevention. Full meal preparation and feeding assistance. Core companionship part of every visit. Light tidying related to care tasks. 4hr ($140) or 8hr ($240) sessions. Same-day available with 2-hour notice. Homemaker is delivered by trained homemakers. No clinical tasks. No personal care. No mobility support. Meal preparation and kitchen cleaning. Incidental companionship. Full household tasks: cleaning, laundry, grocery shopping, errands. 2hr ($120), 4hr ($220), 8hr ($400). Same-day available with 2-hour notice. Choose nursing care when: a surgical wound, pressure injury, or diabetic ulcer requires professional assessment; medications need administration by injection, IV, or feeding tube; a family member just discharged from hospital needs clinical monitoring; vital signs need tracking and interpretation; a chronic condition requires active management; a palliative care plan requires pain assessment and family coaching. Choose PSW when: a parent is medically stable but struggles with bathing, dressing, grooming, or toileting; meal preparation has become difficult; mobility has declined and falls are a concern; a family caregiver needs regular respite; a senior living alone benefits from companionship; a family member with dementia needs consistent, familiar caregiver. Choose homemaker when: the client bathes, dresses, and moves independently; primary need is housekeeping; meal preparation needed but client eats independently; grocery shopping and errands have become difficult; seasonal household tasks need help. Common scenarios: Parent just discharged after surgery → Nursing Care (RN-led). Elderly parent stable but cannot bathe/dress alone → PSW. Senior independent but house unmanageable → Homemaker. Family member with dementia needing supervision → PSW with dementia training. Wound not healing properly → Nursing Care. Parent needs personal care AND house is messy → PSW (primary) + Homemaker (supplementary). Palliative care at home → Nursing Care (RN-led). Primary caregiver needs respite → PSW. Yes, you can combine service types. Common combinations: RN twice weekly + PSW daily (RN handles clinical, PSW covers daily living). PSW daily + Homemaker weekly (PSW provides personal care, homemaker handles deep cleaning). RN for clinical oversight + PSW for ongoing support (chronic conditions like COPD, heart failure, Parkinson's). ### What a PSW Does During a Home Visit A Personal Support Worker (PSW) is a certified healthcare professional trained to assist with non-clinical activities of daily living. PSWs are certified through Ontario PSW programs. At WOXY Health, every PSW undergoes additional orientation covering fall prevention, safe transfer techniques, dementia-friendly communication, and visit documentation standards. Task breakdown for a 4-hour visit: - Personal Care and Hygiene (45-75 min): Bathing/showering assistance, sponge bathing, hair washing, oral care, grooming, dressing, toileting, incontinence care, skin moisturising, nail care (filing only). - Mobility and Transfers (20-40 min): Walking assistance, supervised ambulation, bed-to-chair transfers, toilet transfers, use of gait belts and slide boards, wheelchair repositioning. - Meal Preparation and Nutrition (45-60 min): Meal planning and cooking, dietary alignment (low-sodium, diabetic, soft-food, culturally specific), feeding assistance, hydration monitoring, kitchen cleanup. - Companionship and Engagement (ongoing): Conversation, accompaniment on short walks, assistance with phone calls, cognitive stimulation activities, dementia-friendly communication. - Positioning and Comfort (15-25 min): Repositioning in bed/chair, pillow alignment, pressure relief, comfort adjustments, range-of-motion exercises. - Home Safety Monitoring (10-20 min): Clearing walkways, securing loose rugs, checking lighting, ensuring emergency contacts accessible, monitoring fall hazards, medication storage safety check. - Light Housekeeping (15-20 min): Tidying care areas, making bed, washing dishes, laundry related to care tasks, taking out garbage. - Medication Reminders (5-10 min): Reminding client to take scheduled medications, checking safe storage, noting missed doses. - Documentation and Reporting (10-15 min): Visit notes, documenting changes in condition/mood, flagging safety concerns. What PSWs CANNOT do: Administer medications by any route (can only remind); perform wound care or dressing changes; take clinical vital sign measurements for medical decision-making; manage IV lines, feeding tubes, catheters, or any medical device; make clinical assessments or diagnoses; cut nails, trim corns/calluses, or provide foot care beyond basic washing; perform heavy lifting or two-person transfers alone. ### PSW vs. Registered Nurse: Understanding the Difference PSW focuses on non-clinical, hands-on assistance with activities of daily living — bathing, grooming, dressing, toileting, meal preparation, feeding assistance, mobility support, transfer assistance, companionship, and light safety monitoring. PSWs are certified through Ontario PSW programs. RN is licensed with the College of Nurses of Ontario and provides clinical care — medication administration and management, wound care and dressing changes, vital signs monitoring, post-surgical recovery support, chronic condition management, catheter and tube care, and clinical assessments. Choose PSW when primary needs are assistance with daily routines, personal hygiene, mobility, meal support, companionship, or respite. Ideal for seniors who are medically stable but need help maintaining independence. Choose RN when clinical care is required — post-discharge monitoring, wound care, medication administration, IV therapy, catheter management, tube care, vital signs tracking, or any situation requiring clinical assessment or decision. PSW and RN services can work together. A typical arrangement: RN visits twice weekly for clinical monitoring and wound care, while PSW visits daily for personal care, meal preparation, and companionship. ### What Home Care Services Are Available Health assessments: Comprehensive health evaluations performed by registered nurses in your home, including blood pressure, cholesterol, HbA1c, lung function, and body composition analysis. Post-surgery recovery: Specialized care after hospital discharge to ensure proper wound management, medication compliance, and recovery monitoring. Medical escort and bedside support: Accompaniment to medical appointments and dedicated bedside care during hospital stays. Private nursing and tube care: Ongoing private nursing for complex needs including feeding tube management, medication administration, and vital signs monitoring. ### What to Expect During a Nurse Home Visit Arrival and identification: Your nurse will arrive within the scheduled window, wearing WOXY identification and a blue verified badge showing their active CNO registration. Health check and assessment: The nurse will review your health history, take vital signs, and perform any ordered tests or assessments in a comfortable, private setting. Documentation and next steps: All findings are documented in your secure health record. You will receive a summary before the nurse leaves, with clear next steps and follow-up instructions. ### How Much Does Home Care Cost? Single home care visits start from $180 depending on service type and duration. Health assessments range from $120 to $350 based on complexity and number of tests included. Ongoing care plans offer discounted rates for regular visits. Monthly packages include scheduled assessments, nurse visits, and priority booking. We accept all major credit cards, Interac e-Transfer, and HSA/insurance receipts are provided for all services. ### Is Home Care Covered by OHIP? What OHIP covers: OHIP covers medically necessary services delivered in hospitals and clinics by physicians. Home care nursing provided by CCAC/LHIN is limited to post-acute cases with strict eligibility criteria. What OHIP does not cover: Preventive health assessments, private duty nursing, ongoing wellness monitoring, and elective home care services. Using HSA and private insurance: WOXY provides itemised receipts for all services. These can be submitted to your Health Spending Account (HSA), workplace wellness benefits, or private insurance plans. Tax deductions: Home care expenses may be eligible for the Medical Expense Tax Credit (METC). ### How to Verify a CNO-Registered Nurse Check the CNO public register at cno.org using the "Find a Nurse" search tool. Enter the nurse's first and last name to view registration status, category (RN or RPN), and any disciplinary history. The blue verified badge on WOXY means we have independently confirmed active CNO registration, liability insurance, and background check within the last 12 months. If you have concerns about credentials, contact support@woxy.ca or call +1-365-698-5115. We re-verify all credentials quarterly. ### How Do I Arrange Care for My Parent? Start with a health assessment so our registered nurse can evaluate your parent's current health status, medication list, mobility level, and care needs. Share the full medication list, allergies, preferred language, emergency contacts, and specific concerns. Family members receive real-time visit summaries through the WOXY app after each appointment. Signs your parent needs more care: frequent falls, missed medications, unexplained weight loss, increasing confusion, and difficulty with daily activities. ### How to Access Your Health Reports Sign in to your WOXY account and navigate to Health Reports from your dashboard.

Custom and ongoing care plans: Flexible hours and visit frequency, multiple visits per week, overnight or live-in options, specialized care coordination, dedicated caregiver assignment, and family portal access. Same-day and next-day availability: For urgent situations, WOXY makes every effort to arrange same-day or next-day PSW support. Toronto, North York, Scarborough, and Markham typically have fastest response times. Every PSW visit fee is all-inclusive: caregiver travel time, hands-on personal care, meal preparation, mobility assistance, companionship, documentation, and coordination with nursing teams. ### PSW Care Plans, Continuity, and How Families Stay Informed Every PSW service begins with a free initial care assessment. A care coordinator visits your home to understand care needs, preferences, dietary requirements, mobility status, and safety concerns. A personalised care plan is developed covering personal care scope, meal arrangements, visit frequency, and special considerations. Whenever possible, WOXY assigns a consistent PSW to build familiarity, trust, and routine. Continuity is prioritised for all ongoing care plans. After every visit, a written visit note documents care provided, client condition and mood, observations, and recommendations. Weekly or bi-weekly summaries track trends across multiple visits. Care plans are designed to adapt as needs change — mobility decline, dietary changes, new medical diagnoses. Families can request plan reviews anytime. When PSW service overlaps with RN-led clinical care, PSW and nurse teams coordinate closely. ### PSW Service Areas, Same-Day Availability, and How to Get Started WOXY provides PSW services across the entire GTA — Toronto, North York, Scarborough, Markham, Richmond Hill, Vaughan, Mississauga, Brampton, and Etobicoke. Caregivers travel from our North York office to serve communities within a 30 km radius. Standard bookings: recommend 24-48 hours advance scheduling for best caregiver match. Urgent situations: same-day or next-day support available. Fastest response in Toronto, North York, Scarborough, and Markham. Getting started: Step 1 — Contact WOXY at +1-365-698-5115 or dashboard to request initial care assessment. Step 2 — Care coordinator visits for free assessment. Step 3 — Review and approve care plan, we match PSW and confirm first visit. Most families: first contact to first visit within 3-5 business days. ### How WOXY Screens Every Caregiver Multi-layer vetting process: CNO registration independently verified through CNO public Find a Nurse registry (re-verified every 3 months). Vulnerable Sector Screening (VSS) — enhanced police background check required for all caregivers. Any conviction involving violence, theft, fraud, or offences against vulnerable persons results in permanent disqualification. Two professional references contacted by direct phone/email. Skills assessment and WOXY orientation before seeing any client. Ongoing quarterly re-verification of CNO registration, annual VSS renewal, mandatory refresher training every 12 months. ### The Blue Verified Badge Three-part confirmation: (1) Active CNO registration with no restrictions — independently verified. (2) Vulnerable Sector Screening clearance within past 12 months. (3) WOXY full vetting completion — skills, references, and orientation passed. All three must be confirmed. Badge removed immediately if any check fails. CNO re-checked every 3 months, VSS renewed annually, skills assessed every 12 months. ### PSW, RPN, and RN Credentials: Understanding the Difference PSW: Completes recognised Ontario PSW training program. Assists with personal hygiene, mobility, meal preparation, dementia-friendly communication, and home safety. Cannot administer injections, perform clinical wound care, or make clinical decisions. RPN (Registered Practical Nurse): CNO-licensed, holds practical nursing diploma. Can administer oral medications and subcutaneous injections, perform wound care, monitor vital signs, and manage urinary catheters for stable, predictable conditions. RN (Registered Nurse): Bachelor degree in nursing, broadest scope. Can perform all RPN tasks plus IV therapy, NG and PEG tube management, complex wound care, palliative care coordination, and clinical assessment of complex or unstable conditions. ### Vulnerable Sector Screening VSS is an enhanced police background check required under the Criminal Records Act for people working with vulnerable populations including seniors. VSS surfaces sexual offences for which a record suspension has been granted — records that would not appear on a standard check. Permanent disqualification at WOXY for any conviction involving violence, theft, fraud, exploitation, or any sexual offence. VSS renewed annually for all active caregivers. Caregivers missing renewal are placed on administrative hold. ### How WOXY Matches Clients with the Right Caregiver Four-factor matching system: (1) Clinical skill and service type — dispatch filters for caregivers whose verified skills match the service requested. (2) Language preference — treated as high-priority criterion, not optional. Available in English, Cantonese, and Mandarin. (3) Geographic proximity — prioritises caregivers closest to your address across the GTA. (4) Caregiver continuity — once matched with positive visit, same caregiver assigned as first preference for all future visits. ### Language Matching: How to Request a Bilingual Caregiver WOXY treats language matching as a first-priority criterion in the dispatch system. All services available in English, Cantonese, and Mandarin. Specify preferred language when booking through dashboard or by phone. Families are never assigned a non-bilingual caregiver without prior notification and agreement. For bilingual caregiver not immediately available, families are informed and offered alternatives. ### Caregiver Continuity: Same Nurse Every Visit Continuity is the system default for ongoing care plans. For seniors with dementia, Parkinson's disease, or anxiety, consistency is a clinical requirement. Formally request same caregiver by calling +1-365-698-5115, emailing support@woxy.ca, or logging into dashboard. When regular caregiver unavailable, families are always notified before the visit. For dementia and palliative clients, caregiver changes require clinical team approval and formal handover. ### Clinical Skill Matching Specialty-specific experience is captured, verified, and used as a primary matching criterion. Competency tags assigned by WOXY clinical leadership after reviewing employment history, post-registration training, and practical skills — never self-reported. Six core nursing disciplines: wound care, palliative, dementia, stroke rehabilitation, geriatric, and bilingual nursing. ### Same-Day and Urgent Caregiver Matching WOXY dispatch system runs 24 hours a day. Urgent requests before 10:00 AM typically confirmed by early afternoon. Minimum notice: 2 hours for home care. For post-discharge urgent matching, contact care team before expected discharge date. Have ready: full address, type of care needed, preferred language, earliest arrival time, health conditions. If same-day matching cannot be confirmed, never charged for visit that does not occur — full refund including any prepaid fees. ### How to Update Matching Preferences and Care Plan Care plans are living documents, not fixed contracts. No penalties for changes. Most changes applied within 24 hours. Changeable preferences: language, clinical skill requirement, caregiver continuity, visit frequency, visit duration, geographic address. Request by phone (+1-365-698-5115), email (support@woxy.ca), or dashboard. Changes apply to all future bookings. For existing visit changes, contact team at least 48 hours before. ### Nursing Disciplines on the WOXY Care Team Six clinical disciplines: Wound care nursing (post-surgical incisions, pressure injuries, venous/arterial ulcers, diabetic foot ulcers, dehisced wounds, infected wounds). Palliative care nursing (comfort-focused clinical care, pain assessment, opioid monitoring, subcutaneous medication, family coaching). Dementia and cognitive care nursing (person-centred communication, cognitive/behavioural observation, polypharmacy risk monitoring, home safety). Stroke and rehabilitation nursing (neurological checks, anticoagulant monitoring, fall risk assessment, physiotherapy coordination). Geriatric nursing (polypharmacy review, frailty assessment, multi-condition monitoring for heart failure, COPD, CKD, diabetes, Parkinson's). Bilingual nursing in Cantonese and Mandarin (all six disciplines available). ### How Care Plans Are Built, Updated, and Communicated Every care plan begins with a free initial home assessment by a care coordinator. Written personalised care plan prepared within 24-48 hours, shared with family for review before services begin. Care plan specifies: type of care, frequency/duration of visits, specific tasks, dietary instructions, emergency contacts, language preference, and goals of care. Updates triggered by: new diagnosis or hospital discharge, significant change in mobility/cognition, family request, clinical recommendation from GP/specialist, or scheduled formal review at 30-day or 90-day mark. Changes applied within 24 hours. After every visit, caregiver completes structured visit note documenting tasks completed, client condition/mood, observations, concerns/incidents, and recommendations. Every ongoing care plan assigned a named care coordinator as primary family contact. ### Trust Standards: PHIPA Compliance, Liability Insurance, Client Safety PHIPA compliance: All personal health information governed by Ontario's Personal Health Information Protection Act. WOXY operates as health information custodian. Health information collected only for specific care service, stored in encrypted systems, never shared without explicit written consent. Right to access own health records anytime. Professional liability insurance: Every RN holds active professional liability insurance as CNO registration condition. Verified at onboarding and annual re-verification. Nurses without active insurance suspended from clinical visits. Consent protocols: Structured consent before any clinical service — service consent, information sharing consent, data handling consent. Documented before every series of visits, reviewed when care plan changes. Can withdraw/modify consent anytime by calling +1-365-698-5115. Incident response: Caregiver follows emergency protocols, notifies dispatch immediately, documents incident. 911 called first for life-threatening emergencies. Care coordination team contacts primary family contact as soon as situation stable. Written incident report shared within 24 hours. Every incident triggers formal clinical quality review. Ongoing monitoring: CNO registration re-checked quarterly, VSS renewed annually, liability insurance confirmed annually, client feedback and incident flags reviewed after every complaint. ### Understanding the RN and RPN Roles in WOXY Home Care Both RN and RPN are CNO-licensed. Distinction is scope of practice. RPN: licensed for stable, predictable, less complex conditions. Can administer oral medications and subcutaneous injections, perform wound assessment/dressing changes for non-complex wounds, monitor vital signs, manage urinary catheters for stable clients. RN: four-year BSN, broadest scope. Can initiate/manage IV therapy, manage NG/PEG tube feeds, perform complex wound care including dehisced wounds and cavity packing, assess complex/unstable conditions requiring real-time clinical judgment, provide palliative care clinical oversight. WOXY assigns RN or RPN based on: service type and clinical complexity, specific tasks needed (IV therapy always requires RN), client care plan and health status, caregiver availability. You can request RN or RPN specifically when booking. ### How Far in Advance to Book Home Care Standard booking window: 24-48 hours ahead for most visits. Same-day visits available every day including weekends. Urgent requests before 10 AM typically confirmed by early afternoon. Popular morning slots (8-11 AM) fill fastest — book 3-5 days ahead for weekend or holiday appointments. Evening visits after 6 PM available but limited. New clients: health assessments require 48 hours lead time for nurse to review health history. Existing clients: follow-up visits often schedulable with few hours notice. ### What Happens After You Book Email confirmation from noreply@updates.woxy.ca with booking reference, service type, date, time, address, cancellation policy, and calendar invite (.ics). SMS messages at key moments: immediately after booking with reference/date/time, reminder before visit with reschedule option, en-route notification with ETA and provider details. Provider assigned during business hours shortly after booking; after-hours bookings processed next dispatch cycle. Track booking status in WOXY account: Confirmed (payment received), Provider Assigned, En Route, In Progress, Completed. ### Understanding Your Confirmation Email Contains: service name and plan, date/time (Eastern Time), service address and entry instructions, payment status, price breakdown with base cost and HST, View Booking Details button, cancellation policy summary, location info. Sent from noreply@updates.woxy.ca with subject "Appointment Confirmation." If not received: check spam/junk, promotions tab (Gmail), verify email address, ensure inbox not full. Contact team to verify and resend if needed. Add noreply@updates.woxy.ca to safe sender list. ### SMS and Notification Updates Notifications at key stages: confirmation SMS immediately after booking, reminder approximately 24 hours before appointment, confirmation if rescheduled or cancelled. Language determined by profile preference (English, Traditional Chinese). If not receiving SMS: verify phone number correct with country code, check device messaging app for blocked senders, check do-not-disturb mode. Email serves as complete backup for all booking communications. ### How to Check Your Booking Status Two ways: via confirmation email/SMS direct link (no login required), or through account booking history. Status timeline: Pending (booking received, payment processing), Confirmed (booking and payment processed), Completed (appointment done, reports being prepared). Provider assignment shows full name, professional role, photo, verification status, experience, languages, bio. Payment status: Paid Online (Stripe) or Pay at Appointment. ### What to Expect Before Arrival Provider assignment not instantaneous — depends on staff scheduling, service complexity, geographic proximity. Before provider arrives: ensure entry accessible and well-lit, have medical records/medication lists/allergy info/insurance cards ready, prepare clean comfortable work area, write down symptoms/questions, ensure care recipient or responsible caregiver present. At door: provider introduces by name, identifies service. Verify against booking details page. During visit: provider confirms identity, reviews purpose, asks about symptoms/medications/allergies, explains each step, obtains verbal consent. After visit: provider cleans up, may provide verbal instructions/immediate observations, notes follow-up recommendations, confirms payment if applicable. ### When Your Booking Is Confirmed After checkout: booking created, payment processed, confirmation email from noreply@updates.woxy.ca sent, confirmation SMS sent, internal notification to scheduling team. Payment confirmation (from payment processor, confirms funds authorised) is different from booking confirmation (from WOXY Health, confirms appointment scheduled). Booking fully confirmed when: received WOXY confirmation email with subject "Appointment Confirmation," received confirmation SMS, booking details page shows Confirmed status, payment status matches selected option. ### After Your Visit: Reports and Follow-Up After visit: visit summary notification via email and in-app message including narrative report of clinical observations, biometric data formatted for comparison, follow-up recommendations, secure share link for physician/insurance. Lab result timelines vary: cholesterol/HbA1c through partner labs; lung function interpreted during visit with formal report after; InBody full report with trend analysis after visit; blood pressure results immediately. Follow-up recommendations may include: suggested revisit interval, specialist referral, lifestyle modifications, medication review. Access health records anytime in WOXY account — complete visit timeline, download summaries, track biometric trends, share with doctor via secure link. All records PHIPA-compliant. ### Understanding Your InBody Body Composition Report InBody score: composite metric reflecting overall body composition balance. Scores closer to 80 suggest healthier muscle-fat balance. Health summary card shows weight, BMI, body fat percentage with colour-coded indicators. Body composition breakdown: skeletal muscle mass, body fat mass, total body water (intracellular/extracellular), basal metabolic rate (BMR). Visceral fat level: fat around internal organs, metabolically active, associated with cardiovascular/metabolic risk when elevated. Segmental analysis: muscle and fat distribution across five regions — left arm, right arm, trunk, left leg, right leg. Colour coding indicates typical range. Trend analysis: sparkline charts across multiple visits, difference between first and most recent visit. Access report in WOXY account health reports section, download PDF, share secure link (auto-expires). ### Accessing Your Lung Function Spirometry Report FVC (Forced Vital Capacity): total volume forcefully exhaled after deep breath, compared to predicted value based on age/height/gender/ethnicity. At or above 80% predicted is normal range. FEV1 (Forced Expiratory Volume): volume exhaled in first second, key airway obstruction indicator. Below 80% may indicate airway narrowing. FEV1/FVC ratio: below 70% suggests obstructive pattern. PEF (Peak Expiratory Flow): maximum exhalation speed. FEF25-75%: mid-range flow, sensitive to early small airway changes. Lung age: compares measured function to average healthy person at different ages. Status colours: Green (normal, >=80% predicted), Amber (mild, 70-79%), Orange (moderate, 60-69%), Red (severe, below 60%). Clinical insights button generates automated analysis of flagged metrics. ### Reviewing Your Blood Pressure Trends Over Time Dashboard shows mini chart plotting systolic and diastolic over time. Multiple readings switch to weekly view with daily range bars. Numbers: systolic (heart beats) and diastolic (heart rests), mmHg. 120/80 commonly referenced normal. Trend value: consistent upward trend across multiple readings over days/weeks stronger signal than single high reading. Consider follow-up: sustained upward trend over 2+ weeks or multiple consecutive elevated readings. Tips: sit quietly 5 minutes before, arm at heart level, avoid caffeine/exercise/smoking 30min prior, same time of day, multiple readings averaged more representative. ### Clinical Summaries and AI Health Documents AI clinical summary generator: guides describing symptoms in plain language, produces structured medical summary with chief complaint, symptom list with duration/severity, relevant health metrics, concise narrative for physician. Supports English, Mandarin, Cantonese input. Does not diagnose or recommend treatments. My Documents library: stores all saved clinical summaries and uploaded health documents, chronologically organised, full view with structured symptom list. Share function generates secure link (auto-expires). Privacy: AI summaries processed to structure input but not used to train external models. All documents governed by same PHIPA protections as health record. ### Receipts, Invoices, and Payment Records Two document types: Receipt (issued when payment completed at booking, confirms transaction with service cost/HST/total breakdown, payment method, transaction reference). Invoice (issued for pay-at-appointment or service added to existing care plan, itemises each service line, date, provider, amount due). Each document contains: name and service address, service type and description, date/time, base service fee, Ontario HST amount and rate, total in CAD, payment status, unique document number.

Medical escort and bedside support: accompaniment to appointments, dedicated bedside care during hospital stays.

Minimum 2-hour notice. Slots spaced 60 minutes apart. Health assessments: Monday-Saturday, 9AM-7PM weekdays, 9AM-5PM Saturdays. No Sunday assessments. Minimum 4-hour notice. Slots spaced 30 minutes apart. Booking calendar automatically enforces correct rules based on service type. ### How the Provider Dispatch Pool Works Real-time list of confirmed bookings without assigned provider, organised by service type, geographic area, appointment time, required skills. Providers see available jobs on WOXY app — service type, estimated time, neighbourhood, estimated payout, client notes. Accept commits to arrival, Decline returns job to pool (no penalty). Direct job offers with time-limited windows: up to 48 hours for future bookings, within the hour for same-day. If no provider accepts: dispatch team alerted, search radius expanded, client notified with next available slot, full refund including same-day fee if cannot be fulfilled. ### What to Do When Same-Day Slots Are Full Slots calculated from scheduling rules, not live provider count. Slot may appear bookable even if all qualified providers already assigned. Guaranteed full refund if no provider assigned before appointment time — automatic, no cancellation request needed, returned to original payment method within 5-10 business days. Next available standard slot typically within 24-48 hours. For urgent needs, call +1-365-698-5115 for priority dispatch options. Tips to improve same-day confirmation: book earlier (before 10AM), be flexible with time window, provide clear address/entry, choose home care over assessment for urgent needs. ### Same-Day and Urgent Visit Fees Standard same-day fee: $50 before tax plus Ontario HST. Flat fee regardless of service type or duration. Displayed clearly on checkout before payment. Fully refundable if WOXY cancels (no provider), reschedule 24+ hours out, cancel within permitted window, or WOXY cancels operationally. Not refundable if cancel inside late cancellation window or visit proceeds. Avoid fee: book at least 24 hours in advance. ### Weekend, Evening, and Holiday Urgent Bookings Home care visits available any time including evenings after 6PM and overnight. Same 2-hour notice applies. Health assessments: Monday-Friday 9AM-7PM, Saturday 9AM-5PM, no Sunday. Saturday same-day assessment must be booked before 1PM for 4-hour prep window.

Identify patients by service address (each family member has distinct saved address) and appointment notes ("Visit for Mom"). Booking details require phone-number match — only account holder can view. Cancellations apply per booking. Tips: use appointment notes consistently, label saved addresses clearly, book consistent times per family member, forward confirmation emails to other family care coordinators. ### Health Reports, Consent, and Privacy for Family Bookings Health reports linked to booking account: InBody matches via phone number, lung function links to profile_id, AI documents stored under user_id. Consent records linked to initiating account — providers confirm consent directly with patient at visit start. WOXY operates under Ontario PHIPA. Account holder booking for family member acts as designated representative. Separate accounts recommended for capable adults (reports stored under correct profile, individual consents, own notifications). For parents who cannot manage account, family coordinator remains account holder. Reports downloadable/shareable via secure link from Results or My Documents. ### Wound Care Nursing at Home WOXY wound care nurses are RNs trained in clinical assessment and management of post-surgical incisions, pressure injuries, venous/arterial ulcers, diabetic foot ulcers, dehisced wounds, and infected wounds.

Polypharmacy review for drug-drug interactions at every visit. Chronic condition monitoring for heart failure, COPD, diabetes, CKD, and Parkinson's disease to prevent avoidable hospitalisations.

Confirmed: Active status, correct category (RN/RPN), no restrictions or disciplinary orders. Re-checked every 3 months. Layer 2: Vulnerable Sector Screening — enhanced police background check. Surfaces suspended offences not on standard check. Permanent disqualification for violence, theft, fraud, or sexual offences. Renewed annually. Layer 3: Reference verification — at least two professional references by direct phone/email, specific questions about reliability, care quality, family communication, incidents. Skills assessed practically before seeing any client. WOXY-specific orientation covering documentation, visit protocols, infection control, family communication. The blue verified badge confirms all three simultaneously: Active CNO registration (verified), Current VSS clearance (within 12 months), WOXY full vetting completed (skills, references, orientation). All three must be confirmed. Badge removed immediately if any fails. Ongoing re-verification: CNO quarterly, VSS annually, skills refresher every 12 months, immediate review triggered by any incident or complaint. ### Choosing the Right Service Plan WOXY organises services into four main categories: Health Assessments (blood pressure, cholesterol, HbA1c, lung function, InBody — no prescription needed, same-day results). Home Care Nurse-Led (private nursing, post-surgery recovery, post-discharge support, wound care, tube care, palliative care — all CNO-registered RN-led). Daily Living Support (PSW visits for bathing, dressing, meal prep, mobility, companionship; Homemaker for cleaning, laundry, errands). Specialty Care (dementia, Parkinson's, stroke recovery, palliative nursing for complex/progressive conditions). Health assessments for monitoring, early detection, baseline measurement — Monday to Saturday, 9AM-7PM. Nurse-led home care for clinically supervised care — 24/7, 2-hour minimum notice. PSW/homemaker for non-clinical daily living — 24/7, $140-$400 depending on duration. Specialty care for complex/progressive conditions — matched to nurses with verified specialty experience. ### Understanding Visit Duration Health assessments: Blood pressure 30-45min, cholesterol/HbA1c 30-45min, lung function 45-60min (three calibrated trials), InBody 30-45min (full report with segmental analysis), comprehensive panel 90min. Results same-day. Nursing visits: 4-hour block (standard — post-surgery monitoring, wound care, medication, vitals, documentation). 8-hour block (extended — multiple clinical tasks, mobility assistance, mealtime support, extended monitoring). 12-hour block (high-dependency, overnight, complex management).

All prices exclude Ontario HST (13%). ### Booking Recurring Visits Recurring visits are pre-arranged appointments on fixed weekly, biweekly, or custom schedule — automatically confirmed without manual rebooking. Ideal for regular wellness monitoring, ongoing post-surgery recovery, scheduled nursing for chronic conditions, consistent PSW support, dementia/palliative care with clinically important caregiver continuity.

WOXY 识别证及显示其有效 CNO 注册的蓝色认证徽章。健康检查及评估:护士将在舒適私密的环墶中覆查您的健康纪录、量度生命体征,并进行任何指定的检测或评估。记录及后续步骤:所有检查结果将记录在您的安全健康纪录中。护士离开前,您将收到摘要,并附有清晰的后续步骤及跟进指示。 ### 居家护理费用是多少 单次居家护理探访由 $180 起,视乎服务类型及时长而定。健康评估收费介乎 $120 至 $350,视乎复杂程度及包含的检测数量。持续护理计划为定期探访提供折扣优惠。月度套餐包括预约评估、护士探访及优先预约。我们接受所有主要信用卡、Interac 电子转账,并为所有服务提供 HSA/保险收据。 ### 居家护理是否由 OHIP 承保 OHIP 承保范围:OHIP 涵盖医院及诊所内由医生提供的医疗必需服务。由 CCAC/LHIN 提供的居家护理仅限于符合严格资格标准的急性期后个案。OHIP 不保项目:预防性健康评估、私人专责护理、持续健康监测及选择性居家护理服务。使用 HSA 及私人保险:WOXY 为所有服务提供明细收据。这些收据可提交至您的健康支出账户(HSA)、职场 wellness 福利或涵盖辅助医疗服务的私人保险计划。税务扣减:为自己或受养人支付的居家护理费用可能符合医疗费用税务抵免(METC)资格。 ### 如何核实 CNO 注册护士 前往 cno.org 并使用「寻找护士」搜索工具,输入护士的姓名即可查看其注册状态、类别(RN 或 RPN)及任何纪律处分记录。WOXY 的蓝色认证徽章表示我们已在过去 12 个月内独立确认该护士的有效 CNO 注册、责任保险及背景审查。如对资历有疑问,请联络 support@woxy.ca 或致电 +1-365-698-5115。我们每季度重新核实所有资历。 ### 如何为父母安排护理 从健康评估开始,让我们的注册护士在长者的家中环境评估其现时健康状况、药物清单、活动能力及护理需求。提供完整药物清单、任何过敏、偏好语言、紧急联络人及特定疑虑。家庭成员可在每次预约后透过 WOXY 应用程式接收实时探访摘要。父母需要更多护理的信号:频繁跌倒、漏服药物、不明原因体重下降、日益混乱及日常活动困难。 ### 如何查看您的健康报告 登入您的 WOXY 账户并前往「健康报告」部分。每份报告包含完整结果、趋势分析及护士建议。下载 PDF 将副本储存至您的装置。使用「分享」按钮将安全连结传送给您的家庭医生或专科医生。为保障隐私,连结将于 30 天后失效。 ### PSW 探访时长、时间安排及收费 探访时长选项:4 小时标准护理时段 $140,每次包括个人护理、安全行动、如厕、用药提醒、陪伴及探访记录。8 小时延长支援 $240,每次包括所有 4 小时服务加上全日覆盖、持续用餐协助、水分监察及家庭协调。自订及持续护理计划:弹性时段及探访频率、每周多次探访、过夜或住家选项、专门护理协调、专属护理员指派及家庭平台访问权限。当日及次日可用性:对于紧急情况,WOXY 尽力安排当日或次日 PSW 支援。多伦多、北约克、士嘉堡及万锦市通常有最快的回应时间。每次 PSW 探访费用均为全包:护理员出行时间、实務个人护理、膳食准备、行动协助、陪伴、记录及与护理团队的协调。 ### PSW 护理计划、连续性及家属如何保持知情 每项 PSW 服务均从免费初步护理评估开始。护理协调员到访您的家中,了解护理需求、偏好、饮食要求、行动能力状况及安全疑虑。制定个人化护理计划,涵盖个人护理范围、膳食安排、探访频率及特别考虑事项。在可能的情况下,WOXY 会安抁固定的 PSW 以建立熟悉感、信任及规律。所有持续护理计划均优先考虑连续性。每次探访后,会准备书面探访记录,记录提供的护理、客戶状況及情緒、观察及建议。每週或每兩週提供摘要以追蹤多次探访的趋势。护理计划旨在随需求变化而适应——行动能力下降、饮食变化、新的医疗诊断。家屬可以随时要求审阅计划。当 PSW 服务与 RN 主导的临床护理重叠时,PSW 与护理团队会紧密协调。 ### PSW 服务地区、当日可用性及开始步骤 WOXY 在整個大多伦多地区提供 PSW 服务——多伦多、北约克、士嘉堡、万锦市、列治文山、旺市、密西沙加、宾顿及怡陶碧谷。护理员从北约克办事处出发,服务 30 公里半径内的社区。标准预约建议提前 24-48 小时安排以获得最佳护理员配对。紧急情况:当日或次日支援可用。最快回应在多伦多、北约克、士嘉堡及万锦市。开始步骤:第一步——致电 +1-365-698-5115 或登入仪表板请求初步护理评估。第二步——护理协调员到访进行免费评估。第三步——审阅并批淮护理计划,我们配对 PSW 并确认首次探访时间。大多数家庭从首次联络到首次探访在 3-5 个工作日内完成。 ### WOXY 如何筛选每位护理员 多层审核流程:CNO 注册通过 CNO 公开寻找护士名册独立核实(每 3 个月重新核实)。易受伤害群体筛选(VSS)——所有护理员必须完成的增强版警察背景调查。任何涉及暴力、盗窃、欺诈或侵害弱势群体的定罪导致永久取消资格。通过直接电话/电邮联络至少两名职业参考人。技能评估及 WOXY 入职培训后始能服务客户。持续的季度重新核实 CNO 注册、年度 VSS 更新、每 12 个月强制进修培训。 ### 蓝色认证徽章 三部分确认:(1) 有效 CNO 注册且无限制——独立核实。(2) 过去 12 个月内易受伤害群体筛选许可。(3) WOXY 完整资格审查完成——技能、参考及入职培训均已通过。三项均须确认才显示徽章。任何核查失败徽章即时移除。CNO 每 3 个月重新核查,VSS 每年更新,技能每 12 个月评估。 ### PSW、RPN 及 RN 资格:了解区别 PSW:完成认可的安大略省 PSW 培训课程。协助个人卫生、行动能力、膳食准备、失智友善沟通及居家安全。不能进行注射给药、执行临床伤口护理或作出临床决策。RPN(注册实习护士):持有 CNO 牌照,持有实习护理文凭。可为稳定、可预期的状况给予口服药物及皮下注射、执行伤口护理、监测生命征象及管理导尿管。RN(注册护士):护理学学士学位,最广泛的执业范围。可执行所有 RPN 任务加上静脉治疗、鼻胃管及胃造口管管理、复杂伤口护理、安宁护理协调及对复杂或不稳定状况的临床评估。 ### 易受伤害群体筛选 VSS 是根据《刑事纪录法》要求的增强版警察背景调查,针对与包括长者在内的弱势群体共事的人士。VSS 揭示已获记录暂停的性罪行——这些记录不会出现在标准检查中。在 WOXY,任何涉及暴力、盗窃、欺诈、剥削或任何性罪行的定罪导致永久取消资格。VSS 每年为所有活跃护理员更新。错过更新期限的护理员会被置于行政停工状态。 ### WOXY 如何为客户配对合适的护理员 四因素配对系统:(1) 临床技能及服务类型——调度系统筛选已核实技能与所要求服务类型相符的护理员。(2) 语言偏好——视为高优先级配对标准,非可选项目。提供英语、广东话及普通话。(3) 地理邻近性——优先配对距您地址最近的护理员,覆盖整个大多伦多地区。(4) 护理员连续性——正面探访记录后,同一护理员列为所有后續探访的首选。 ### 语言配对:如何申请双语护理员 WOXY 将语言配对视为调度系统的首要优先标准。所有服务均以英语、广东话及普通话提供。预约时通过仪表板或电话指定偏好语言。未經提前通知和同意,絕不会分配非双语护理员。如双语护理员暂时不可用,家屬会收到通知并获得其他选项。 ### 护理员连续性:确保每次由同一位护士到访 连续性是持续护理计划的系统预设。对于患有失智症、柏金逊症或焦虑症的長者,一致性是临床要求。正式申请同一护理员:致电 +1-365-698-5115、电邮 support@woxy.ca 或登入仪表板。常規护理员不可用时,家屬始终在探訪前收到通知。对于失智症及安宁护理客戶,护理员更换需临床团队批准及正式交接。 ### 临床技能配对 专科特定经验被记录、核实并用作主要配对标准。能力标签由 WOXY 临床主管在审查从业记录、注册后培训及实际技能后分配——从不自行申报。六个核心护理学科:伤口护理、安宁护理、失智症护理、中風康复、老年护理及双语护理。 ### 当日及紧急护理员配对 WOXY 调度系统全天候运行。上午 10 时前提交的紧急请求通常可在下午初段确认。最短通知:居家护理 2 小时。出院后紧急配对:在预期出院日期前联络护理团队。需准备:完整地址、所需护理类型、偏好语言、最早到达时间及健康状况。如无法确认当日配对,未进行的探访絕不收费——全额退款包括任何预付费用。 ### 如何更新配对偏好及护理计划 护理计划是活文件,而非固定合约。更改无罚则。大多数更改在 24 小时内应用。可更改的偏好:语言、临床技能要求、护理员连续性、探访频率、探访时长、地理地址。通过电话(+1-365-698-5115)、电邮(support@woxy.ca)或仪表板申请。更改适用于所有未來探访。如需更改已确认探访,至少提前 48 小时联络团队。 ### WOXY 护理团队的护理学科 六个临床学科:伤口护理护理(术后切口、压疮、静脉/动脉溃疡、糖尿病足溃疡、裂开伤口、感染伤口)。安宁护理护理(以舒適为核心的临床护理、疼痛评估、鴉片类药物监测、皮下给药、家屬指导)。失智症及认知护理护理(以人为本的沟通、认知/行为观察、多重用药风险监测、居家安全)。中风及康复护理(神經学检查、抗凝血药监测、跌倒风险评估、物理治疗协调)。老年护理(多重用药审查、虚弱评估、心臟衰竭/慢性阻塞性肺病/慢性肾病/糖尿病/柏金遜症的多病症监测)。双语护理(广东话及普通话,所有六个学科均可用)。 ### 护理计划如何建立、更新及向家屬沟通 每个护理计划均从护理协调员进行的免费初步居家评估开始。书面个人化护理计划在 24-48 小时内准备,并在服务开始前与家屬分享审阅。护理计划指定:护理类型、探访频率/时长、具体任务、饮食指示、紧急联络人、语言偏好及护理目标。更新触发因素:新诊断或出院、行动能力或认知的显著变化、家屬请求、全科医生/专科医生的临床建议、30 天或 90 天的预定正式审查。更改在 24 小时内应用。每次探访后,护理员完成结构化探访记录,记录已完成的任务、客戶状況/情緒、观察、疑虑/事件及建议。每个持续护理计划指派一名护理协调员作为主要家庭联络人。 ### WOXY 的信任标准:PHIPA 合规、责任保险及客戶安全 PHIPA 合规:所有个人健康资讯受安大略省《个人健康资讯保护法》管辖。WOXY 作为健康资讯保管人运作。健康资讯仅收集用于特定护理服务,储存于加密系统,未經明确书面同意絕不分享。有权随时存取自己的健康记录。专业责任保险:每位注册护士作为 CNO 注册条件持有有效专业责任保险。在入职时及年度重新核实中验证。沒有有效保险的护士暂停临床探访。同意协议:任何临床服务前进行结构化同意——服务同意、资讯分享同意、数据处理同意。每次系列探访前记录,护理计划重大变化时重新审阅。可随时致电 +1-365-698-5115 撤回或修改同意。事件回应:护理员遵循紧急应变程序,立即通知调度中心,记录事件。危及生命的紧急情况首先致电 911。护理协调团队在状況稳定后立即联络主要家庭联络人。24 小时内提供书面事件报告。每起事件触发正式临床质量审查。持续监察:CNO 注册每季度重新核查,VSS 每年更新,责任保险每年确认,每次投诉后审查客戶反馈及事件标记。 ### 了解 WOXY 居家护理中的 RN 及 RPN 角色 RN 及 RPN 均持有 CNO 牌照。区别在于执业范围。RPN:有权为稳定、可预期、复杂性较低的状況提供护理。可以给予口服药物及皮下注射、为非复杂伤口进行伤口评估及换药、监测生命征象、为稳定客戶管理导尿管。RN:四年护理学学士学位,最广泛的执业范围。可以额外开展/管理静脉治疗、管理鼻胃管/胃造口管饲、执行复杂伤口护理包括裂开伤口及腔隙填充、评估需要实时临床判断的复杂/不稳定状况、提供安宁护理临床监督。WOXY 根据以下因素分配 RN 或 RPN:服务类型及临床复杂性、所需的特定任务(静脉治疗始终需要 RN)、客戶护理计划及健康状况、护理员可用性。预约时可特別要求 RN 或 RPN。 ### 应提前多久预约居家护理 标准预约时段:大多数探访提前 24-48 小时。每日均可安排当日探访,包括周末。上午 10 时前的紧急请求通常可在下午初段确认。热门上午时段(8-11 AM)最快满额——周末或假日预约提前 3-5 天。下午 6 时后的晚間探访可用但有限。新客戶:健康评估需要 48 小时准备时间,以便护士审阅健康纪录。现有客戶:跟進探访通常可於数小时内安排。 ### 预约后会发生什么 来自 noreply@updates.woxy.ca

应用程式上查看可用工作——服务类型、预计时间、社区、预计报酬、客戶备注。接受即承诺按时到达,拒绝则返回候补名单(无罚则)。有时间限制的直接工作邀请:未来预约最长 48 小时,当日请求在一小时内。如无护理员接受:调度团队收到警报,擴大搜索半径,客戶收到通知提供下一個可用时段,如无法履行全额退款包括当日费用。 ### 当日时段额满时该怎么办 时段根据排程规则计算而非实时护理员数量。即使所有合资格护理员已获指派,时段仍可能显示为可预约。如预约时间前未指派护理员,保证全额退款——自动进行,无需取消申请,5-10 个工作日内退回原始付款方式。下一個可用标准时段通常 24-48 小时内。紧急需求致电 +1-365-698-5115 讨论优先调度选项。提高当日确认机会的提示:较早预约(上午 10 时前)、对时间窗口保持弹性、提供清晰地址/进入指示、紧急需求选择居家护理而非评估。 ### 当日及紧急探访费用 标准当日费用:税前 $50 加上安大略省 HST。固定费用,不论服务类型或时长。结账时於付款前清楚显示。以下情况可全额退款:WOXY 取消(无护理员)、改期至 24 小时以上、在允许时段内取消、或 WOXY 因营运原因取消。如在逾期取消时段内取消或探访已进行则不退款。避免费用:至少提前

通过电话号码匹配、肺功能结果连结至 profile_id、AI 文件储存於 user_id 下。同意记录与启动预约的账户连结——护理员在每次探访开始时直接向患者确认同意。WOXY 根据安大略省 PHIPA 运作。代表家庭成员预约的账户持有人作为指定代表。建议有行为能力的成年人使用独立账户(报告储存在正確个人资料下、个人化同意、自己的通知)。对于无法管理账户的父母,家庭协调员继续担任账户持有人。报告可从结果或我的文件通过安全连结下载/分享。 ### 居家伤口护理 WOXY 伤口护理护士是接受过术后切口、压疮、静脉/动脉溃疡、糖尿病足溃疡、裂开伤口及感染伤口的临床评估及管理培训的

PSW、護理及家務服務之間選擇 WOXY Health 提供三類居家護理服務。護理服務(RN 主導)是由 CNO 註冊護士提供的臨床護理,涵蓋傷口護理、藥物給藥、術後康復、管路護理、生命徵象監測及醫療陪診。PSW 是非臨床的日常生活協助,涵蓋沐浴、穿衣、膳食準備、行動支援、如廁及陪伴。家務助理服務是為不需要臨床或個人護理的長者提供的家居支援,涵蓋清潔、洗衣、膳食準備、購買雜貨及輕度家務。 對比表:護理服務由 CNO 註冊護士提供,受安大略省護士學院監管,涵蓋全面的臨床任務,探訪時長為 4 小時、8 小時、12 小時時段,當日可用(最短 2 小時通知),語言:英語、廣東話、普通話,不在 OHIP 保障範圍內。PSW 由認證 PSW(安大略省 PSW 課程)提供,無臨床任務,全面個人護理涵蓋沐浴/穿衣/梳洗/如廁,安全轉移及步行協助,全面膳食準備及餵食協助,核心陪伴是每次探訪的一部分,4 小時($140)或 8 小時($240)時段。家務助理由受訓家務助理提供,無臨床任務,無個人護理,無行動支援,膳食準備及廚房清潔,附帶陪伴,全面家務任務,2 小時($120)、4 小時($220)、8 小時($400)。 選擇護理服務當:手術傷口、壓瘡或糖尿病潰瘍需要專業評估;需要注射、靜脈注射或餵飼管給藥;家庭成員剛出院需要臨床監測;生命徵象需要追蹤和解讀;慢性病需要積極管理;安寧護理計劃需要疼痛評估及家屬指導。選擇 PSW 當:父母醫療狀況穩定但沐浴、穿衣、梳洗或如廁困難;膳食準備變得困難;行動能力下降且擔心跌倒;家庭照顧者需要定期喘息;獨居長者需要陪伴;患有失智症的家庭成員需要一致的熟悉護理員。選擇家務助理當:客戶能獨立沐浴、穿衣及走動;主要需求是家居清潔;需要膳食準備但客戶能獨立進食;購買雜貨及處理家務變得困難;季節性家務需要協助。常見情境:父母剛手術後出院 → 護理服務,年長父母穩定但無法獨自沐浴/穿衣 → PSW,長者獨立但家居無法管理 → 家務助理,患有失智症的家庭成員需要監督 → 具失智症培訓的 PSW,傷口癒合不良 → 護理服務,父母需要個人護理且家居混亂 → PSW(主要)+ 家務助理(補充),居家安寧護理 → 護理服務,主要照顧者需要喘息 → PSW。是的,您可以結合不同服務類型。常見組合:每週兩次 RN + 每日 PSW、每日 PSW + 每週家務助理、RN 臨床監督 + PSW 持續支援。 ### PSW 探訪期間提供哪些服務 個人支援工作者(PSW)是經過認證的醫療專業人員,接受培訓以在居家環境中協助非臨床的日常生活活動。在 WOXY Health,每位 PSW 均須接受涵蓋防跌、安全轉移技術、失智友善溝通及探訪記錄標準的額外入職培訓。4 小時探訪的任務分解:個人護理與衛生(45-75 分鐘)——沐浴/淋浴協助、擦浴、洗髮、口腔護理、梳洗、穿衣、如廁、失禁護理、皮膚保濕、指甲護理(僅限銼平)。行動能力及轉移(20-40 分鐘)——步行協助、監督式行走、床到椅轉移、如廁轉移、使用步態帶及滑板、輪椅體位調整。膳食準備及營養(45-60

專注於非臨床、實務性的日常生活活動協助——沐浴、梳洗、穿衣、如廁、膳食準備、餵食協助、行動支援、轉移協助、陪伴及輕度安全監察。PSW 通過安大略省 PSW 課程認證。RN 持有安大略省護士學院牌照並提供臨床護理——藥物給藥及管理、傷口護理及更換敷料、生命徵象監測、術後康復支援、慢性病管理、導管及管路護理及臨床評估。選擇 PSW 當主要需求是日常規律、個人衛生、行動能力、膳食支援、陪伴或喘息的協助。選擇 RN 當需要臨床護理——出院後監測、傷口護理、藥物給藥、靜脈治療、導管管理、管路護理、生命徵象追蹤或任何需要臨床評估或決策的情況。PSW 和 RN 服務可以同時使用。典型安排:RN 每週兩次進行臨床監測及傷口護理,PSW 每日進行個人護理、膳食準備及陪伴。 ### 有哪些居家護理服務 健康評估:由註冊護士在您家中進行的全面健康評估,包括血壓、膽固醇、糖化血色素、肺功能及身體組成分析。術後康復:出院後的專業護理,確保適當的傷口管理、藥物依從性及康復監測。醫療陪診及床邊支援:陪同前往醫療預約及住院期間的專屬床邊護理。私人護理及管路護理:為複雜需求提供的持續私人護理,包括餵飼管管理、藥物給藥及生命徵象監測。 ### 護士上門探訪須知 到達及身份確認:您的護士將在預約時段內到達,佩戴 WOXY 識別證及顯示其有效 CNO 註冊的藍色認證徽章。健康檢查及評估:護士將在舒適私密的環境中覆查您的健康紀錄、量度生命體徵,並進行任何指定的檢測或評估。記錄及後續步驟:所有檢查結果將記錄在您的安全健康紀錄中。護士離開前,您將收到摘要,並附有清晰的後續步驟及跟進指示。 ### 居家護理費用是多少 單次居家護理探訪由 $180 起,視乎服務類型及時長而定。健康評估收費介乎 $120 至 $350,視乎複雜程度及包含的檢測數量。持續護理計劃為定期探訪提供折扣優惠。月度套餐包括預約評估、護士探訪及優先預約。我們接受所有主要信用卡、Interac 電子轉帳,並為所有服務提供 HSA/保險收據。 ### 居家護理是否由 OHIP 承保 OHIP 承保範圍:OHIP 涵蓋醫院及診所內由醫生提供的醫療必需服務。由 CCAC/LHIN 提供的居家護理僅限於符合嚴格資格標準的急性期後個案。OHIP 不保項目:預防性健康評估、私人專責護理、持續健康監測及選擇性居家護理服務。使用 HSA 及私人保險:WOXY 為所有服務提供明細收據。這些收據可提交至您的健康支出帳戶(HSA)、職場 wellness 福利或涵蓋輔助醫療服務的私人保險計劃。稅務扣減:為自己或受養人支付的居家護理費用可能符合醫療費用稅務抵免(METC)資格。 ### 如何核實 CNO 註冊護士 前往 cno.org 並使用「尋找護士」搜索工具,輸入護士的姓名即可查看其註冊狀態、類別(RN 或 RPN)及任何紀律處分紀錄。WOXY 的藍色認證徽章表示我們已在過去 12 個月內獨立確認該護士的有效 CNO 註冊、責任保險及背景審查。如對資歷有疑問,請聯絡 support@woxy.ca 或致電 +1-365-698-5115。我們每季度重新核實所有資歷。 ### 如何為父母安排護理 從健康評估開始,讓我們的註冊護士在長者的家中環境評估其現時健康狀況、藥物清單、活動能力及護理需求。提供完整藥物清單、任何過敏、偏好語言、緊急聯絡人及特定疑慮。家庭成員可在每次預約後透過 WOXY 應用程式接收實時探訪摘要。父母需要更多護理的信號:頻繁跌倒、漏服藥物、不明原因體重下降、日益混亂及日常活動困難。 ### 如何查看您的健康報告 登入您的 WOXY 帳戶並前往「健康報告」部分。每份報告包含完整結果、趨勢分析及護士建議。下載 PDF 將副本儲存至您的裝置。使用「分享」按鈕將安全連結傳送給您的家庭醫生或專科醫生。為保障私隱,連結將於 30 天後失效。 ### PSW 探訪時長、時間安排及收費 探訪時長選項:4 小時標準護理時段 $140,每次包括個人護理、安全行動、如廁、用藥提醒、陪伴及探訪記錄。8 小時延長支援 $240,每次包括所有 4

探訪費用均為全包:護理員出行時間、實務個人護理、膳食準備、行動協助、陪伴、記錄及與護理團隊的協調。 ### PSW 護理計劃、連續性及家屬如何保持知情 每項 PSW 服務均從免費初步護理評估開始。護理協調員到訪您的家中,了解護理需求、偏好、飲食要求、行動能力狀況及安全疑慮。制定個人化護理計劃,涵蓋個人護理範圍、膳食安排、探訪頻率及特別考慮事項。在可能的情況下,WOXY 會安排固定的 PSW 以建立熟悉感、信任及規律。所有持續護理計劃均優先考慮連續性。每次探訪後,會準備書面探訪記錄,記錄提供的護理、客戶狀況及情緒、觀察及建議。每週或每兩週提供摘要以追蹤多次探訪的趨勢。護理計劃旨在隨需求變化而適應——行動能力下降、飲食變化、新的醫療診斷。家屬可以隨時要求審閱計劃。當 PSW 服務與 RN 主導的臨床護理重疊時,PSW 與護理團隊會緊密協調。 ### PSW 服務地區、當日可用性及開始步驟 WOXY 在整個大多倫多地區提供 PSW 服務——多倫多、北約克、士嘉堡、萬錦市、列治文山、旺市、密西沙加、賓頓及怡陶碧谷。護理員從北約克辦事處出發,服務 30 公里半徑內的社區。標準預約建議提前 24-48 小時安排以獲得最佳護理員配對。緊急情況:當日或次日支援可用。最快回應在多倫多、北約克、士嘉堡及萬錦市。開始步驟:第一步——致電 +1-365-698-5115 或登入儀表板請求初步護理評估。第二步——護理協調員到訪進行免費評估。第三步——審閱並批准護理計劃,我們配對 PSW 並確認首次探訪時間。大多數家庭從首次聯絡到首次探訪在 3-5 個工作日內完成。 ### WOXY 如何篩選每位護理員 多層審核流程:CNO 註冊通過 CNO 公開尋找護士名冊獨立核實(每 3 個月重新核實)。易受傷害群體篩選(VSS)——所有護理員必須完成的增強版警察背景調查。任何涉及暴力、盜竊、欺詐或侵害弱勢群體的定罪導致永久取消資格。通過直接電話/電郵聯絡至少兩名職業參考人。技能評估及 WOXY 入職培訓後始能服務客戶。持續的季度重新核實 CNO 註冊、年度 VSS 更新、每 12 個月強制進修培訓。 ### 藍色認證徽章 三部分確認:(1) 有效 CNO 註冊且無限制——獨立核實。(2) 過去 12 個月內易受傷害群體篩選許可。(3) WOXY 完整資格審查完成——技能、參考及入職培訓均已通過。三項均須確認才顯示徽章。任何核查失敗徽章即時移除。CNO 每 3 個月重新核查,VSS 每年更新,技能每 12 個月評估。 ### PSW、RPN 及 RN 資格:了解區別 PSW:完成認可的安大略省 PSW 培訓課程。協助個人衛生、行動能力、膳食準備、失智友善溝通及居家安全。不能進行注射給藥、執行臨床傷口護理或作出臨床決策。RPN(註冊實習護士):持有 CNO 牌照,持有實習護理文憑。可為穩定、可預期的狀況給予口服藥物及皮下注射、執行傷口護理、監測生命徵象及管理導尿管。RN(註冊護士):護理學學士學位,最廣泛的執業範圍。可執行所有 RPN 任務加上靜脈治療、鼻胃管及胃造口管管理、複雜傷口護理、安寧護理協調及對複雜或不穩定狀況的臨床評估。 ### 易受傷害群體篩選 VSS 是根據《刑事紀錄法》要求的增強版警察背景調查,針對與包括長者在內的弱勢群體共事的人士。VSS 揭示已獲記錄暫停的性罪行——這些記錄不會出現在標準檢查中。在 WOXY,任何涉及暴力、盜竊、欺詐、剝削或任何性罪行的定罪導致永久取消資格。VSS 每年為所有活躍護理員更新。錯過更新期限的護理員會被置於行政停工狀態。 ### WOXY 如何為客戶配對合適的護理員 四因素配對系統:(1) 臨床技能及服務類型——調度系統篩選已核實技能與所要求服務類型相符的護理員。(2) 語言偏好——視為高優先級配對標準,非可選項目。提供英語、廣東話及普通話。(3) 地理鄰近性——優先配對距您地址最近的護理員,覆蓋整個大多倫多地區。(4) 護理員連續性——正面探訪記錄後,同一護理員列為所有後續探訪的首選。 ### 語言配對:如何申請雙語護理員 WOXY 將語言配對視為調度系統的首要優先標準。所有服務均以英語、廣東話及普通話提供。預約時通過儀表板或電話指定偏好語言。未經提前通知和同意,絕不會分配非雙語護理員。如雙語護理員暫時不可用,家屬會收到通知並獲得其他選項。 ### 護理員連續性:確保每次由同一位護士到訪 連續性是持續護理計劃的系統預設。對於患有失智症、柏金遜症或焦慮症的長者,一致性是臨床要求。正式申請同一護理員:致電 +1-365-698-5115、電郵 support@woxy.ca 或登入儀表板。常規護理員不可用時,家屬始終在探訪前收到通知。對於失智症及安寧護理客戶,護理員更換需臨床團隊批准及正式交接。 ### 臨床技能配對 專科特定經驗被記錄、核實並用作主要配對標準。能力標籤由 WOXY 臨床主管在審查從業記錄、註冊後培訓及實際技能後分配——從不自行申報。六個核心護理學科:傷口護理、安寧護理、失智症護理、中風康復、老年護理及雙語護理。 ### 當日及緊急護理員配對 WOXY 調度系統全天候運行。上午 10 時前提交的緊急請求通常可在下午初段確認。最短通知:居家護理 2 小時。出院後緊急配對:在預期出院日期前聯絡護理團隊。需準備:完整地址、所需護理類型、偏好語言、最早到達時間及健康狀況。如無法確認當日配對,未進行的探訪絕不收費——全額退款包括任何預付費用。 ### 如何更新配對偏好及護理計劃 護理計劃是活文件,而非固定合約。更改無罰則。大多數更改在 24 小時內應用。可更改的偏好:語言、臨床技能要求、護理員連續性、探訪頻率、探訪時長、地理地址。通過電話(+1-365-698-5115)、電郵(support@woxy.ca)或儀表板申請。更改適用於所有未來探訪。如需更改已確認探訪,至少提前 48 小時聯絡團隊。 ### WOXY 護理團隊的護理學科 六個臨床學科:傷口護理護理(術後切口、壓瘡、靜脈/動脈潰瘍、糖尿病足潰瘍、裂開傷口、感染傷口)。安寧護理護理(以舒適為核心的臨床護理、疼痛評估、鴉片類藥物監測、皮下給藥、家屬指導)。失智症及認知護理護理(以人為本的溝通、認知/行為觀察、多重用藥風險監測、居家安全)。中風及康復護理(神經學檢查、抗凝血藥監測、跌倒風險評估、物理治療協調)。老年護理(多重用藥審查、虛弱評估、心臟衰竭/慢性阻塞性肺病/慢性腎病/糖尿病/柏金遜症的多病症監測)。雙語護理(廣東話及普通話,所有六個學科均可用)。 ### 護理計劃如何建立、更新及向家屬溝通 每個護理計劃均從護理協調員進行的免費初步居家評估開始。書面個人化護理計劃在 24-48 小時內準備,並在服務開始前與家屬分享審閱。護理計劃指定:護理類型、探訪頻率/時長、具體任務、飲食指示、緊急聯絡人、語言偏好及護理目標。更新觸發因素:新診斷或出院、行動能力或認知的顯著變化、家屬請求、全科醫生/專科醫生的臨床建議、30 天或 90 天的預定正式審查。更改在 24 小時內應用。每次探訪後,護理員完成結構化探訪記錄,記錄已完成的任務、客戶狀況/情緒、觀察、疑慮/事件及建議。每個持續護理計劃指派一名護理協調員作為主要家庭聯絡人。 ### WOXY 的信任標準:PHIPA 合規、責任保險及客戶安全 PHIPA 合規:所有個人健康資訊受安大略省《個人健康資訊保護法》管轄。WOXY 作為健康資訊保管人運作。健康資訊僅收集用於特定護理服務,儲存於加密系統,未經明確書面同意絕不分享。有權隨時存取自己的健康記錄。專業責任保險:每位註冊護士作為 CNO 註冊條件持有有效專業責任保險。在入職時及年度重新核實中驗證。沒有有效保險的護士暫停臨床探訪。同意協議:任何臨床服務前進行結構化同意——服務同意、資訊分享同意、數據處理同意。每次系列探訪前記錄,護理計劃重大變化時重新審閱。可隨時致電 +1-365-698-5115 撤回或修改同意。事件回應:護理員遵循緊急應變程序,立即通知調度中心,記錄事件。危及生命的緊急情況首先致電 911。護理協調團隊在情況穩定後立即聯絡主要家庭聯絡人。24 小時內提供書面事件報告。每起事件觸發正式臨床質量審查。持續監察:CNO 註冊每季度重新核查,VSS 每年更新,責任保險每年確認,每次投訴後審查客戶反饋及事件標記。 ### 了解 WOXY 居家護理中的 RN 及 RPN 角色 RN 及 RPN 均持有 CNO 牌照。區別在於執業範圍。RPN:有權為穩定、可預期、複雜性較低的狀況提供護理。可以給予口服藥物及皮下注射、為非複雜傷口進行傷口評估及換藥、監測生命徵象、為穩定客戶管理導尿管。RN:四年護理學學士學位,最廣泛的執業範圍。可以額外開展/管理靜脈治療、管理鼻胃管/胃造口管飼、執行複雜傷口護理包括裂開傷口及腔隙填充、評估需要實時臨床判斷的複雜/不穩定狀況、提供安寧護理臨床監督。WOXY 根據以下因素分配 RN 或 RPN:服務類型及臨床複雜性、所需的特定任務(靜脈治療始終需要 RN)、客戶護理計劃及健康狀況、護理員可用性。預約時可特別要求 RN 或 RPN。 ### 應提前多久預約居家護理 標準預約時段:大多數探訪提前 24-48 小時。每日均可安排當日探訪,包括週末。上午 10 時前的緊急請求通常可在下午初段確認。熱門上午時段(8-11 AM)最快額滿——週末或假日預約提前 3-5 天。下午 6 時後的晚間探訪可用但有限。新客戶:健康評估需要 48 小時準備時間,以便護士審閱健康紀錄。現有客戶:跟進探訪通常可於數小時內安排。 ### 預約後會發生什麼 來自 noreply@updates.woxy.ca

護理員指派並非即時——取決於員工排程、服務複雜性、地理鄰近性。護理員到達前:確保入口通暢且照明充足、備妥醫療記錄/藥物清單/過敏資訊/保險卡、準備乾淨舒適的工作區域、寫下症狀/問題。門口:護理員自我介紹並說明服務。與預約詳情頁面核對。探訪期間:護理員確認身份、審閱目的、詢問症狀/藥物/過敏、說明每個步驟、取得口頭同意。探訪後:護理員清理、可能提供口頭指示/即時觀察、記錄跟進建議、確認付款(如適用)。 ### 預約確認時 結帳後:預約創建、付款處理、來自 noreply@updates.woxy.ca 的確認電郵發送、確認短訊發送、向排程團隊的內部通知。付款確認(來自付款處理商)與預約確認(來自 WOXY Health)不同。預約在以下條件完全確認時:收到主旨為「Appointment Confirmation」的 WOXY 確認電郵、收到確認短訊、預約詳情頁面顯示已確認狀態、付款狀態與所選選項相符。 ### 探訪後:報告及跟進 探訪後:探訪摘要通知通過電郵及應用程式內訊息發送,包括臨床觀察的敘述報告、生物識別數據(格式化以便比較)、跟進建議、可與醫生/保險分享的安全連結。化驗結果時間線:膽固醇/糖化血色素通過合作實驗室;肺功能在探訪期間解讀,正式報告隨後;InBody 完整報告含趨勢分析;血壓結果即時。跟進建議可能包括:建議覆訪間隔、專科轉介、生活方式調整、藥物審查。隨時在 WOXY 帳戶中存取健康記錄——完整探訪時間線、下載摘要、追蹤生物識別趨勢、通過安全連結與醫生分享。所有記錄符合 PHIPA。 ### 了解您的 InBody 身體組成報告 InBody 分數:反映整體身體組成平衡的綜合指標。分數接近 80 表示較健康的肌肉-脂肪平衡。健康摘要卡顯示體重、BMI、體脂率及顏色編碼指標。身體組成細分:骨骼肌量、體脂量、全身水分(細胞內/細胞外)、基礎代謝率(BMR)。內臟脂肪水平:器官周圍的脂肪,代謝活躍,升高時與心血管/代謝風險相關。部位分析:五個身體區域的肌肉及脂肪分佈——左臂、右臂、軀幹、左腿、右腿。顏色編碼指示典型範圍。趨勢分析:多次探訪的迷你折線圖,首次及最近探訪之間的差異。在 WOXY 帳戶的健康報告部分存取報告,下載 PDF,分享安全連結(自動失效)。 ### 查看您的肺功能肺量測定報告 FVC(用力肺活量):深吸氣後用力呼出的總空氣量,與根據年齡/身高/性別/種族計算的預測值進行比較。達到或高於預測值 80% 為正常範圍。FEV1(第一秒用力呼氣量):第一秒呼出的空氣量,氣道阻塞的關鍵指標。低於 80% 可能表示氣道狹窄。FEV1/FVC 比值:低於 70% 提示阻塞模式。PEF(最大呼氣流速):最大呼氣速度。FEF25-75%:中段流速,對小氣道早期變化敏感。肺齡:將測量的功能與不同年齡健康人士的平均水平進行比較。狀態顏色:綠色(正常,≥80% 預測值)、琥珀色(輕度,70-79%)、橙色(中度,60-69%)、紅色(嚴重,低於 60%)。臨床分析按鈕生成標記指標的自動化分析。 ### 長期檢視您的血壓趨勢 儀表板顯示迷你圖表,繪製隨時間的收縮壓及舒張壓。多次讀數切換至每週視圖,顯示每日範圍柱。數字:收縮壓(心跳時)及舒張壓(休息時),mmHg。120/80 為常用參考正常範圍。趨勢值:多天/數週內多次讀數持續上升比單次高讀數更具信號意義。考慮跟進:持續 2 週以上的上升趨勢或多次連續升高讀數。提示:測量前安靜坐 5 分鐘、手臂與心臟水平、測量前至少 30 分鐘避免咖啡因/運動/吸煙、相同時間、取多次讀數平均值。 ### 臨床摘要及 AI 健康文件 AI 臨床摘要生成器:引導以簡單語言描述症狀,產生結構化醫療摘要,包括主訴、附帶持續時間/嚴重程度的症狀列表、相關健康指標、供醫生參考的簡潔敘述。支援英文、普通話、廣東話輸入。不診斷或建議治療。我的文件庫:儲存所有已保存的臨床摘要及上傳的健康文件,按時間順序排列,完整視圖含結構化症狀列表。分享功能生成安全連結(自動失效)。隱私:AI 摘要處理以結構化輸入但不用於訓練外部模型。所有文件受與健康記錄相同的 PHIPA 保護。 ### 收據、發票及付款紀錄 兩種文件類型:收據(預約時完成付款後發出,確認交易含服務費用/HST/總額明細、付款方式、交易參考編號)。發票(到訪時付款或服務加入現有護理計劃時發出,逐項列出每項服務、日期、提供者、應付金額)。每份文件包含:姓名及服務地址、服務類型及描述、日期/時間、基本服務費、安大略省 HST 金額及稅率、加元總額、付款狀態、獨有文件編號。存取記錄:登入並導航至帳單部分,按時間順序列出。點擊任何條目查看完整文件或下載 PDF。保險/稅務:格式化以符合 HSA、職場 wellness、私人保險。可能符合醫療費用稅務抵免(METC)。遺失文件:檢查付款是否完全處理。待定交易可能不會生成最終收據直至結清。到訪時付款的發票在 1 個工作日內顯示。 ### 退款及取消政策 24 小時全額退款時限:探訪前至少 24 小時取消全額退款。逾期取消可能產生費用。當日附加費退款如 WOXY 取消(未指派護理員)、改期至 24 小時以上、在允許時段內取消、或 WOXY 因營運原因取消。如在逾期取消時段內取消或探訪已進行則不退款。退款退回原始付款方式,5-10 個工作日內。 ### 如何改期或取消預約

應用程式上查看可用工作——服務類型、預計時間、社區、預計報酬、客戶備註。接受即承諾按時到達,拒絕則返回候補名單(無罰則)。有時間限制的直接工作邀請:未來預約最長 48 小時,當日請求在一小時內。如無護理員接受:調度團隊收到警報,擴大搜索範圍,客戶收到通知提供下一個可用時段,如無法履行全額退款包括當日費用。 ### 當日時段額滿時該怎麼辦 時段根據排程規則計算而非實時護理員數量。即使所有合資格護理員已獲指派,時段仍可能顯示為可預約。如預約時間前未指派護理員,保證全額退款——自動進行,無需取消申請,5-10 個工作日內退回原始付款方式。下一個可用標準時段通常 24-48 小時內。緊急需求致電 +1-365-698-5115 討論優先調度選項。提高當日確認機會的提示:較早預約(上午 10 時前)、對時間窗口保持彈性、提供清晰地址/進入指示、緊急需求選擇居家護理而非評估。 ### 當日及緊急探訪費用 標準當日費用:稅前 $50 加上安大略省 HST。固定費用,不論服務類型或時長。結帳時於付款前清楚顯示。以下情況可全額退款:WOXY 取消(無護理員)、改期至 24 小時以上、在允許時段內取消、或 WOXY 因營運原因取消。如在逾期取消時段內取消或探訪已進行則不退款。避免費用:至少提前

Stripe 使用帳戶持有人的信用卡處理。每項預約為獨立交易。收據上的服務地址反映護理地點,帳單與您的帳戶綁定。每項預約顯示基本費用加上 13% 安大略省 HST。收據在探訪後自動發送至帳戶持有人電郵——包含服務名稱、日期、地址、基本費用、HST、總額。不自動轉發給患者。收據適合 HSA 及私人保險——附上您代表患者預約的說明。可能符合 METC。家庭預約的退款政策與個人預約相同:退款退回原始付款方式,5-10 個工作日內。 ### 管理多位家庭成員時的預約紀錄 所有預約與帳戶電話號碼綁定,按時間順序列表含即將到來及過去分頁。通過服務地址(每位家庭成員有獨特的已儲存地址)及預約備註識別患者。預約詳情需電話號碼匹配——僅帳戶持有人可查看。取消按個別預約處理。提示:持續使用預約備註、為已儲存地址設定清晰標籤、為每位家庭成員預約一致時間、將確認電郵轉發給其他家庭成員。 ### 家庭預約的健康報告、同意及隱私 健康報告與預約帳戶連結:InBody 通過電話號碼匹配、肺功能結果連結至 profile_id、AI 文件儲存於 user_id 下。同意記錄與啟動預約的帳戶連結——護理員在每次探訪開始時直接向患者確認同意。WOXY 根據安大略省 PHIPA 運作。代表家庭成員預約的帳戶持有人作為指定代表。建議有行為能力的成年人使用獨立帳戶(報告儲存在正確個人資料下、個人化同意、自己的通知)。對於無法管理帳戶的父母,家庭協調員繼續擔任帳戶持有人。報告可從結果或我的文件通過安全連結下載/分享。 ### 居家傷口護理 WOXY 傷口護理護士是接受過術後切口、壓瘡、靜脈/動脈潰瘍、糖尿病足潰瘍、裂開傷口及感染傷口的臨床評估及管理培訓的
