CANSWA Membership for PSW

Membership with CANSWA 

Becoming a member of CANSWA comes with several valuable benefits:

✔ Background Check Included
​
Your CANSWA membership includes a police background check. While Carelancer still requires all providers to complete ISB verification, having an existing background check can be helpful for your own records and professional use.

✔ Insurance Coverage Provided by CANSWA
​
As a CANSWA member, you are covered under the association’s liability insurance. This means you do not require internal insurance through Carelancer, as your association handles your coverage directly.
