Lakeridge Health is participating in a career fair on March 26, 2026, to recruit new staff for its hospital in Whitby, Ontario. The event is designed to help nurses who were trained in other countries find jobs in the local healthcare system.
The Nursing Job Fair is being organized by the CARE Centre for Internationally Educated Nurses. This non-profit group is funded by the provincial and federal governments to support nurses as they move into the Canadian workforce.
The event will take place in the Gibson Ballroom at the Hotel Novotel in North York. Nurses who want to attend must be members of the CARE Centre to meet with hiring teams from organizations like Lakeridge Health.
By hiring more staff, the hospital system hopes to increase its service capacity and reduce wait times for patients. This recruitment drive is part of a larger effort to address nursing shortages and improve care across Ontario hospitals.
