Quality of Worklife


Balancing work and life, the way it should be.

Nursing is hard work -- physcially and emotionally. To help our nurses practice effectively, we try to create working conditions that help them plan their personal lives and keep their bodies and minds healthy.

Shifts at Baycrest are reasonable in length, predictable in frequency.

Most shifts are eight hours, from 7 am - 3 pm; 3 pm - 11 pm; or 11 pm - 7 am and are scheduled on an eight-week cycle.

Rotating shifts are days and evenings or days and nights. All staff are scheduled to work every second weekend.

The on-site Esther Exton Child Care Centre, operated by early childhood education experts from George Brown College in Toronto, gives preferred admission to children of Baycrest employees.

Our fitness centre is open 24 hours a day, seven days a week and also offers regularly-scheduled exercise classes.

The Employee Assistance Program is a free, voluntary and confidential personal counseling service provided by an independent outside company that can help you manage any personal and work-related concerns affecting your physical and emotional well-being.
