Hear from our team members
I am proud to work at a nationally recognized hospital and be a part of a community that is known for its excellent patient care. The high standard of care, resources and teamwork allow me to thrive and provide the best patient and family-centered care. Corewell Health has allowed me to grow on both an individual and professional level by providing the resources needed to advance my career and reach my professional goals. My commute to work is seamless and I would not want to work anywhere else!
As a newly graduated medical technologist, I wanted to find a workplace that provided an opportunity to broaden my horizons. Corewell Health has given me the resources I need to gain experience and knowledge in my field. I love to cross over from Windsor every day - Michigan is my home away from home and the transition of working in another country was nearly perfect.
I've worked at Corewell Health for 17 years and it's a very welcoming place with many opportunities to grow. In addition to having physicians and residents in-house and available around the clock, I appreciate the updated technology, computer charting and free on-site parking in a safe area. The flexibility and available shifts are fantastic so you can find what works best for you and your family. I feel very comfortable in my nursing role and am grateful for the support I get from my peers.
At first, the idea of working in a new country made me anxious, but it was all worth it in the end. Corewell Health has a wonderful team ready to help Canadians with every step of the process. The opportunities for growth at Corewell Health are endless and the staff has been amazing at helping me with the transition. I am a new grad, and Corewell Health has provided me with the tools and support I need for success in my nursing career. Don't be afraid to take the leap!
