LTC Backfill Support Option

Backfill support is available for LTC homes who use LIPHA to train new and recent PSW and Nursing hires virtually. 

Note: Backfill support is limited and will be provided on a first come, first serve basis. The PSW Education Fund for Long-Term Care will reimburse the LTC home to cover backfill costs up to: 

• $25/hour x 14 hours = $350 of backfill per PSW 

• $25/hour x 16 hours = $400 of backfill per nurse

If you have requested backfill support in the intake form, we will walk you through the application process.
