**The PRHC Difference**:
Peterborough Regional Health Centre (PRHC) is a state-of-the-art regional hospital with a proud local history extending back over a century. Our regional hospital is located in Peterborough, Ontario, a 90-minute drive northeast of Toronto. With a capacity of 494 beds and more than 3000 healthcare professionals, staff and volunteers, PRHC has one of the busiest emergency departments in Ontario and offers an extensive range of services, including specialized programs in renal, stroke, cardiac, cancer care, mental health and vascular surgery, with many opportunities in a variety of areas.

We wouldn't be the hospital we are today without our people, and nothing is more important to us than our team of dedicated employees. At PRHC, we pride ourselves on creating and maintaining an environment where people are valued, recognized, and treated with respect.

As a member of the PRHC team, you will be part of an exceptional working environment that provides a forum to share knowledge, to learn, to develop talents, relationships, and careers.

Finally, you will work at a hospital that is dedicated to ensuring our team has the resources they need. To this end, we have recently installed state-of-the art technology including a new MRI machine and other diagnostic imaging equipment.

**Life in Peterborough**

Registered Respiratory Therapists & associated team members at PRHC enjoy competitive pay (the same rate you would receive in the GTA) but also enjoy a substantially lower cost of living and a naturally beautiful place to live. Peterborough is known as the gateway to Kawartha cottage country and relocating here will allow you to enjoy a wonderful work-life balance, with access to beautiful parks, trails and the Trent-Severn Waterway. We have a lively, creative downtown core, as well as quick access to the GTA Highway 407 east extension. Some of our staff enjoy biking to work, others use their days off to paddleboard, canoe, or take a short drive to a lake.
