Nursing students
CHEO’s Health Care Aid (HCA) positions are viewed as a transitional role, whereby nursing students can develop skills, knowledge and self-confidence. Our HCA positions give nursing students the opportunity to become immersed in the hospital-setting which enables them to build on their communication and inter-professional collaboration skills. As a result of this program, HCAs become excellent candidates for future nursing opportunities at CHEO.
If you are a nursing student and would like the opportunity to begin your rewarding career with CHEO, view our current HCA opportunities.
