Being part of the nursing team at St. Thomas Elgin General Hospital (STEGH) is much more than a job. It’s about developing relationships with an open and responsive group of professionals.  It’s about joining a family.

Our mission reflects our goals and defines our approach taken to patient focused care.  Compassion, Accountability, Respect, Excellence and Safety are core values we uphold.  Our nurses make the difference to St. Thomas – the hospital and the community. If you want to make a difference too, then consider joining our dynamic, professional team. We are committed to providing full time employment for our Nursing staff and currently have 90% full-time rate.

Our mandate is one of a learning organization embracing continuous improvement and change.  We offer our nursing staff continuing education - enhancement of current skills, training on new technologies, a preceptor program and opportunities to pursue certification and higher education. 

Working with and learning from your nursing colleagues is a fundamental part of our culture, as is teamwork and a supportive environment that allows us to offer the best care possible to our clients.

The Nursing Professional Practice Council represents and is the voice for nursing at STEGH. The council explores current nursing practice, best practice and supports front-line decisions by nurses for nurses.

Nurses at STEGH provide competent, compassionate, collaborative care to our patients and their families through a commitment to excellence in patient care.
