Ontario is expanding a program that provides clinical placements for nursing and personal support worker students in long-term care homes. The program, which has already assisted 500 long-term care facilities in providing more than 17,000 placements since 2021, will receive $94.5 million over three years to support an additional 31,000 placements by 2027. The goal of the program is to build a pipeline of talent by giving students more hands-on clinical training to improve the quality of care for long-term care residents.
