Human Resources Manager

**Program Overview**:
The eHealth Centre of Excellence (eCE) develops, implements, and advances digital health tools and services - such as eReferral, eConsult, Virtual Care, Online Appointment Booking, Patient Forms, Tools for Electronic Medical Records, and Automated Solutions - to better serve clinicians and patients across the province. We advocate for the continued and improved use of technology to enhance the connection and secure information-sharing between all clinicians in the patient’s circle of care, as well as communication between clinicians and their patients. We also support clinicians with tools that provide decision support at the point of care and improve data quality, leading to enhanced outcomes for patients.

Our organization works with system partners, regional and provincial agencies, Ontario Health Teams, clinicians, and patients to support priorities that ensure equitable, seamless care for all residents in Ontario, and co-leads two provincial programs: the Ontario eServices Program and Evidence2Practice Ontario. Our founding vision is one of innovation and partnership, and our mission is to be the leading, trusted digital health partner for primary care and integrated patient care.

Here at the eHealth Centre of Excellence, we strive to cultivate a welcoming and collaborative work environment, where people are encouraged to share ideas and work together to turn them into real and tangible solutions that address the problems facing our healthcare system today. We are proud to be recognized as a Great Place to Work and are a certified Living Wage Employer.
