Toronto, Ontario, Canada Unity Health Toronto Full time

FELLOWSHIP IN CLINICAL, ORGANIZATIONAL, AND RESEARCH ETHICS 20242026**
Overview

Program Goals and Vision
The goal of the program is to graduate fellows who can independently practice as a clinical ethicist (bioethicist, healthcare ethicist), in both faithbased and secular healthcare environments, in the following five domains: clinical consultations, organizational consultations (including policy review), research ethics review, the provision of ethics education, and bioethics scholarship.

Through the fellowship program, fellows will gain increased competencies in the following seven roles:
ethics expert (the integrating role), communicator, collaborator, leader, health advocate, scholar, professional.


The fellow will be expected to be able to conduct clinical ethics consultations with mínimal supervision by the end of their first year.

Upon successful completion of a oneyear review (at approximately the 12month mark), the Fellow will transition to the Senior Fellow role for the second year, which is accompanied by an increase in responsibility and compensation.

The fellowship program supports Unity Health's commitment to promoting health equity and aligned position statements such as the Canadian Bioethics Society's commitment to embracing antioppressive and antiracist actions.

Program Structure
A Fellow typically spends the first 36 months of their fellowship at Unity Health Toronto, where their time is focused primarily on immersive education and observation.

After this period, the Fellow begins to take on greater independence and responsibility, as they embark on a series of clinical rotations across Unity Health (including the 10 health systems served by the Centre for Clinical Ethics) and its fellowship program partners (CAMH, SickKids, and Sinai).

Fellows are expected to work a typical 9am5pm workday, onsite, with some flexibility for individual preferred work hours outside of this time. Although a Fellow's weekly schedule may vary depending on each rotation site's practices and current needs, approximately 6080% of a Fellow's time is dedicated to onsite clinical/organizational ethics activities, and approximately 2040% of a Fellow's time is dedicated to structured learning and scholarship.

Upon successful completion of a oneyear review (at approximately the 12month mark), the Fellow will transition to the Senior Fellow role for the second year, which is accompanied by an increase in compensation and responsibility.

Compensation
Fellows receive $54,000 CAD (inclusive of 6% in lieu of vacation) over the course of the first year.

The current salary of a Senior Fellow (in the second year of the fellowship) is $61,000 CAD (inclusive of 6% in lieu of vacation).

These are the expected yearly salaries a Fellow and Senior Fellow would receive when taking their entitled three weeks of unpaid time off each year.

Fellows are entitled to paid statutory holidays. Fellows do not receive paid sick days.


In addition, the CCE will reimburse Fellows for their University of Toronto registration fees, as well as their registration fees and travel expenses for the Canadian Bioethics Society annual conference and (with approval) other relevant conferences.

In the second year, the Fellow will receive financial support to complete the Healthcare Ethics Consultant-Certified (HEC-C) certification exam.

As fulltime temporary employees at Unity Health Toronto, Fellows are also eligible to participate in the hospital's health insurance program.
