Ontario Shores Communications and Public Affairs

Ontario Shores Centre for Mental Health Sciences (Ontario Shores) has been named a Greater Toronto Area (GTA) Top Employer for the seventh straight year.   Following a competition that evaluated the work environment, vacation benefits, training and development, financial and health benefits, the physical environment, and community involvement, Ontario Shores was recognized as a GTA Top Employer for 2023.  

As we begin to plan our holiday festivities, we are reminded that many Ontario Shores patients are unable to leave the hospital to celebrate with family or friends. If you, your family or friends, your business, workplace, or sports team are looking for a meaningful way to give back to someone in need this holiday season, consider becoming a Holiday Hope Hero.
