The Director of Care is responsible for ensuring residents receive safe, high-quality and person-centred care while creating an environment where staff are supported, engaged and able to do their best work.
Over the coming year, the Director of Care will also play a central role in preparing Four Seasons Lodge for significant expansion. Working alongside leaders, staff, residents, families and partners, the successful candidate will help translate the plans for our new home into the people, processes, programs and culture required to successfully open and operate it.
The Director of Care will have an opportunity to:
- Help stand up a new 96-bed long-term care home, contributing to operational readiness, transition planning and the development of clinical programs, processes and systems.
- Build and grow our long-term care team, supporting recruitment, onboarding, education, development and the creation of a strong and engaged workforce.

- Champion our people and culture, providing visible, supportive leadership and fostering accountability, collaboration, learning and continuous improvement.
- Partner with residents and families, building trusted relationships and ensuring their perspectives help shape care and the ongoing development of the home.
- Ensure regulatory excellence, maintaining compliance with the Fixing Long-Term Care Act, 2021, associated regulations, professional standards, accreditation requirements and organizational policies.
- Contribute beyond long-term care, participating as a member of DRDH's Administrative Leadership Team and helping advance broader organizational priorities across our integrated health campus.
Who We Are Looking For
We are looking for a nursing leader who is excited by both the responsibility of operating an excellent long-term care home and the opportunity to build for the future.
The successful candidate will bring strong clinical judgment, operational leadership and knowledge of long-term care, together with the ability to lead people through growth and change. They will be comfortable moving between strategy and day-to-day operations—developing plans and systems while remaining visible and connected to residents, families and staff.
You are someone who builds relationships, develops people and creates clarity. You see opportunities for improvement, are comfortable leading change, and understand that excellent resident care depends on an equally strong workplace culture.
Qualifications
The successful candidate will have:
- Current registration as a Registered Nurse in good standing with the College of Nurses of Ontario.
- A Bachelor of Science in Nursing.
- A minimum of five years of recent leadership experience in a hospital and/or long-term care environment.
- Strong knowledge of the Fixing Long-Term Care Act, 2021 and other legislation, professional standards and regulatory requirements relevant to long-term care.

- Strong leadership, coaching, communication and relationship-building skills.
- Demonstrated ability to engage employees and foster a supportive, accountable and high-performing workplace culture.
- Strong organizational, analytical and problem-solving abilities, with the capacity to manage competing priorities in a dynamic environment.
Experience with long-term care redevelopment, expansion, operational readiness, workforce growth or the opening of a new health care environment would be considered a strong asset.
Why DRDH?
This is an exciting time to join DRDH.
Our health campus continues to grow, bringing together hospital care, long-term care, primary care and expanding community services to better meet the needs of the communities we serve.
