Effective interior design is all about creating attractive, human-friendly spaces that also serve functional needs. Successful designers blend creativity with technical precision and balance their own ideas with the specific goals and needs of clients.
Interior designers work with spaces of all shapes and sizes, from factories to condos, luxury homes to restaurants, cruise ships to hotels.

"Every child deserves a champion – an adult who will never give up on them, who understands the power of connection and insists that they become the best that they can possibly be."
Wise words from 40-year veteran teacher, TED talk speaker, and professional development coach Rita F. Pierson.

Inspired to begin a career in health care? Looking at your local training options?
Many students are attracted to personal support worker (PSW) training because of the direct focus on patient care, flexible work schedules, and high level of demand across Canada for PSWs. Students also like this program because it's quite short (usually less than 12 months) and is an excellent entry point for other healthcare careers, such as nursing.
Thinking you might enrol in PSW training this year? Before you sign up for a program, take some time to consider what it takes to succeed in this field, the skills you'll focus on in training, and your local job prospects.
Read on to make sure you're a good fit for the PSW career path.

There are so many factors that can influence our relationship with food as we age. For example, while caring for seniors after PSW training, you will meet patients who have lost their sense of smell and taste, making mealtime far less appealing.
Others will be impacted by medication side effects that reduce appetite. In some cases, an illness or disease will make eating painful or unpleasant—and certain patients will make poor food choices that result in weight gain and a host of related health problems.
Poor nutrition is a far more serious issue in Canada than many PSWs realize. A recent report found that one-third of Canadian seniors were at risk for malnutrition.
How can personal support workers help ensure the seniors they care for eat a balanced diet? What should you know about tailoring diets to common issues among older patients?
Read on for practical tips, food suggestions, and helpful meal-planning advice.
