Care Coordinators are advocates and leaders, and they balance needs and expectations with available resources to ensure fiscal responsibility.

- Take the initiative to lead the health care team with respect to discharge planning, organize discharge planning meetings, and advocate for patient wishes/best practice.
- Establish a helping, therapeutic relationship with patients and their families.
- Build and maintain strong relationships with system partners (i.e., hospital staff/leadership/physicians).
- Balance patient needs and choices with available resources, ensuring patients’ values and preferences are respected.

What must you have?
- Membership, in good standing, with the applicable regulatory body in Ontario

- Knowledge of the health care delivery system and community resources.
- Strong assessment and decision-making skills.
- Excellent interpersonal and communication skills, with the ability to resolve conflicts and disagreements effectively.
- Good time management skills, with the ability to work independently and co-operatively in a busy and fast-paced multidisciplinary environment.
- Good initiative and the ability to be self-directed.
- A valid driver’s license and access to a reliable vehicle.
- Ability to use a computer in a Windows-based environment.

What would give you an advantage?
- Experience working with diverse patient groups (i.e., multicultural, unhoused, palliative, acquired brain injury (ABI), mental health, geriatrics, pediatrics).
- Previous discharge planning experience in an acute care setting.
- Ability to speak French or another second language.
