What actually moves the price
Minimum visit length
Two to four hours, billed whether you use them or not. This changes the real cost more than the hourly rate does.
Evenings, weekends and holidays
Usually a premium of $3–$6 an hour, with statutory holidays at 1.5×. Ontario has nine.
Nurse versus support worker
Anything clinical needs a nurse, at $42–$60 an hour. Everything else is a PSW at $29.50–$38.
Overnight and live-in
Flat nightly or daily rates, and the single biggest driver once nights are involved.
