FAQ: How many new staff will you hire?
With an increase in services, a significant increase in the number of staff in various positions will be necessary. Plans for staffing the new facility, including recruitment, retention and training plans, have already started but are not yet finalized.
Staffing plans consider many factors, including how to balance the duties and workloads of different staff in different departments within the new facility. We are currently working on determining the exact staffing levels that will be needed for the new Mills Memorial Hospital and new Seven Sisters facility. However, we already know significant employment opportunities will likely be available in a number of areas.
