As a way to build capacity for home care and respite services in the province, Manitoba Possible launched an online platform earlier this month to match clients with support workers.

 

The organization’s Provincial Services Director Lindsey Cooke says Care Possible features interactive maps, filtering criteria, communication tools, scheduling, and a secure online payment system.

 

She adds the aim is to grow capacity by engaging people who might not have considered support work, as many home care or respite tasks don’t require specialized skills or certification.

 

Cooke explains the platform verifies identity and completes background checks for workers to ensure safety and trust.
