Providence Health Care’s Occupational Health & Safety team is hiring!

We are looking for individuals with strong interpersonal (especially in-person) skills, ability to multitask, ability to input fit testing records into databases, and a strong base for troubleshooting respirator types on healthcare workers. Ability to travel between PHC sites is considered a strong asset. This position will work primarily with the Occupational Health & Safety Coordinator to ensure proper deployment and functionality.

Working within the department of Occupational Health and Safety, the role will primarily be utilized as a N95 fit tester at the locations of St. Paul’s Hospital and Mount St. Joseph’s Hospital.

There will be roughly 1 session weekly at Mount St. Joseph's, and 1-2 sessions weekly at St. Paul's Hospital (~08:30-16:30). There will be periodic requests to travel and establish fit testing sessions at Providence Health Care's other facilities – within Long Term Care such as Holy Family Hospital and St. Vincent’s Langara. There are opportunities to obtain additional hours for fit testing based on the organizational demand for fit testing sessions (there will be a lot with respiratory season soon upon us!). The exact schedule may change slightly based on need and will be worked out with the team.

• Competitive compensation: $20.19 to $29.16CAD per hour, depending on level of education and experience.
• Meaningful impact: Your dedication and expertise will directly impact the lives of patients, including many from marginalized communities.  
  Professional Training: Expand your skill set and grow your career with opportunities for hands-on learning with interdisciplinary teams.
• State-of-the-art facilities:  The new St. Paul’s Hospital and health campus will be the most innovative approach to the delivery of integrated care in B.C. and Canada, designed to appropriately address the future health needs of patients, families and our communities. From hospital care to primary and community health solutions, the new St. Paul’s Hospital and health campus will continue to lead innovations in care, research, and teaching. The new St. Paul’s Hospital is expected to open in 2027.
• Inclusive culture: We respect the diversity, dignity and interdependence of all persons. We value the cultural richness that our diverse workforce brings to the care of our equally diverse population of patients and residents.
