Humber River Hospital Jobs: Mental Health Summer Student Opportunity

Humber River Health is recruiting a Summer Student, Mental Health for its Mental Health program and Adult Urgent Care Clinic. The employer’s current iCIMS page lists Job ID 2026-23740 and identifies the opportunity as Temporary Full-Time.

The role pays CAD 20 per hour and is primarily scheduled on day shifts from Monday to Friday, with occasional evening or weekend work possible depending on program needs.

This opportunity was selected because it is directly student-focused and the employer’s individual job page remains active. It gives a post-secondary student practical exposure to administrative work inside a hospital mental-health program.

Opportunity Overview

The Summer Student supports day-to-day program administration rather than providing independent clinical care. The position helps cover Program Assistant responsibilities and supports leaders and front-line administrative workflows.

For a student interested in healthcare administration, mental health, public service or hospital operations, the role can provide a practical view of how a clinical program is organized behind the scenes.
