One example of our commitment to continuous education is an on-site post diploma BScN program delivered in partnership with Ryerson University. We have fully funded 30 of our registered nurses to participate in this program.
In order to maintain a healthy mix of skills and experience at Halton Healthcare, we welcome both healthcare professionals who are fresh out of school and those with experience. We partner with academic institutions to provide clinical placements for students in a range of health professions. In 2007, we hired 35 novice RNs into permanent full-time positions as part of the Ministry of Health and Long-Term Care’s New Graduate Guarantee We also welcomed many experienced healthcare professionals who live in the Halton Region and want to enhance their work-life balance by working closer to home.
