We are proud of our record of employee satisfaction and retention. Some of our people have put it in their own words:

I like working here every bit as much as my first day of work …which was 42 years ago.
-- Team Leader, Registered Nurse, employee since September 1963

I have been working at St. Joseph's for the last 20 years. I really like my job and the people I work with. I feel very fortunate to work with caring people. It makes my job easier and enjoyable.

Being an employee at the Health Centre means a strong sense of community, working together in the spirit of mission, and the philosophy of giving, sharing and unity.
-- Environmental Services employee since December 1985

The environment, atmosphere, camaraderie and the high morale here influences new employees to stay longer.
-- Porter since June 1988

I’ve been at St. Joe's for eight years this October. Working in a community hospital setting is very rewarding. There is a sense of family and community coming together to work and contribute daily by helping and leading others. What emerges is quality. In the framework of life, we are all a part of shaping our future and making St. Joe's the best place to work.
-- Registered nurse since October 1997

I like working here because of the friendly people. Management is wonderful and it’s a very clean hospital.
-- Environmental Services employee since October 2001

I've been working at St. Joe's for 3 years. Friends and family still ask, "Why are you driving all that way to Toronto when there are lots of jobs right here?" I consistently respond, "Well, I sure hate the drive but you just can't imagine the incredible team that I work with. It's a pleasure and a privilege to work with everyone on the team … they are professional and exceptionally caring!
-- Registered nurse since February 2002

The people I meet and work with daily, from housekeeping to the C.E.O., never cease to amaze and impress me. I feel accepted, respected, and truly an integral part of this wonderful and caring environment. I look forward to coming to work each day, and to me, that is a true indicator for "Quality of Work life" at St. Joseph's Health Centre.
-- Education Coordinator since May 2004
