St. Joseph’s Home Care (SJHC), St. Joseph’s Healthcare Hamilton (SJHH), and St. Joseph’s Villa Dundas (SJVD) are creating new strategic plans that will guide our decisions on programs, services and funding through the next five years. The plan will allow us to continue our mission to provide high-quality, compassionate care as the needs of our community evolve.
St. Joseph’s Home Care initiated a pilot project to assess the impact of de-escalation training on healthcare workers' safety. The four-hour training, led by experienced facilitators, emphasized empathy and practical exercises. The session received positive feedback, enhancing crisis response confidence and safety culture. The project's success has led to plans for expanding similar training initiatives organization-wide to equip healthcare workers with essential skills for navigating challenging situations with compassion and resilience.
