About the Opportunity

The Health Care Social Worker is a vital member of the interdisciplinary healthcare team, providing collaborative, holistic care across the primary to quaternary care continuum. This role focuses on the relationships between individuals and their environments, which are integral to psychosocial, emotional, and spiritual well-being.

The successful candidate will demonstrate a client-/family-centered approach, familiarity with various evidence-based treatment approaches, and excellent communication skills. Competencies in other languages, particularly French, are an asset.
