At Grand River Hospital and St. Mary’s General Hospital, we are building a world-class health care system supporting healthier lives for the communities we serve. We value people above all else and the experiences of our patients and their families, our team members, and our partners are at the very top of our agenda.

Integration of Grand River Hospital & St Mary’s General Hospital: In April 2024, the Boards of St. Mary’s General and Grand River Hospitals both independently voted in favour of a voluntary merger of the Hospitals to form a new hospital organization. This evolution of our partnership will occur alongside our joint redevelopment work, as we strive to build a new acute care campus in the community. We welcome talent to both St. Mary’s General Hospital and Grand River Hospital that are ready to be part of an exciting, generational change for hospital care in Waterloo Region.

  • The Communications Coordinator also tracks and reports on a number of engagements, capturing public opinion/sentiment, and identifying opportunities to further engage with the communities we serve.

  • Degree/diploma in Public Relations, Communications, Journalism and/or Marketing.
  • Excellent writing, editing and proofreading skills.
