University Health Network

Director Quality, Safety & Clinical Adoption

University Health Network encompasses the Toronto General and Toronto Western hospitals, the Princess Margaret Cancer Centre, Toronto Rehabilitation Institute, and The Michener Institute of Education at UHN. The scope of research and complexity of cases at UHN has made us a national and international source for discovery, education and patient care. We have the largest hospital-based research program in Canada, with major research in cardiology, transplantation, neurosciences, oncology, surgical innovation, infectious diseases, genomic medicine, and rehabilitation medicine. Consistently ranked as one of Canada’s top research hospitals, with the Toronto General Hospital named among the world’s top 5 hospitals by Newsweek of 2022, our purpose is to transform lives and communities through excellence in care, discovery and learning.

With an enterprise-wide portfolio and reporting to the VP Quality & Safety, the Director, Quality, Safety & Clinical Adoption is an integral member of the Quality & Safety strategic leadership team. With the stated mission of providing the highest levels of safety and quality care, this team plays a mission critical role in delivering meaningful and measurable progress towards zero preventable harm for patients and staff. The Director will lead and develop strategy deployment frameworks and processes to ensure alignment of patient safety priorities and resources across the hospital’s programs, services, departments, and portfolios as well as at partner hospital sites across Ontario. In an organization where above all else the needs of patients come first, the Director will play a central role in the overall enhancement of UHN’s Quality, Safety & Clinical Adoption strategy as well as decisions to implement the strategies to effectively focus on quality improvement and to reduce preventable harm to zero over time. Success in this role, simply put is visible and pragmatic process changes across the organization that enhance quality care and reduce patient risk.

The future incumbent of this role will be an established healthcare leader, formally trained and credible within the Quality & Safety portfolio with extensive experience in proactive process development and continuous quality improvement. Ideally, a health care provider with a breath of expertise. This individual will bring a proven track record leading transformational change, building solid partnerships with interprofessional heath teams and patient partners, and advising exceedingly competent executives on the path forward towards a proactive approach to quality improvement. With a solid background in leading Q&S portfolio with a similar magnitude to that of UHN, the future Director will leverage their experience and people skills to initiate change in a meaningful and pragmatic way, drive operational momentum, and deliver on critical initiatives.
