Job Postings
Nurse Practitioner, Primary Care - Full-Time Opportunity
What is it like working as a NP at our CHC in West Lorne? Janelle Johnston, with more than 7 years experience at our Centre, says "I enjoy working at the Centre because of the automomy I have in managing my own roster which allows me to follow my own clients through their lives and create meaningful connections with them. I work with a really supportive clinical team; the other nurses and doctors are very willing to consult if I have a clinical question. I also work closely with our allied health staff. Being able to offer our clients things like physiotherapy, mental health support, diabetes support and systems navigation at no cost allows me to provide the best client-centered care.
The work-life balance is another major benefit. Working one night a week gives me an additional day off every other week. Recently, we received a pay increase which was welcome and well-deseved recognition of our hard work. The leadership staff have been advocating for fair pay across the health care sectors. At the Centre I enjoy good benefits, including HOOPP pension, generous vacation and personal and family wellbeing days off. Overall, the combination of autonomy, support, flexibility, and generous non-monetary benefits makes our Centre a gratifying place to work".
