Finch Employment

Healthcare & wellness recruitmentNursing and medical staff recruitment in Toronto and the GTA

Finch helps clinics, care homes and health services hire the nurses, support workers and office staff who keep patient care running.

Nurse and medical office administrator working at a clinic front desk

Every healthcare organization depends on more than its physicians. Nurses deliver and coordinate care, personal support workers help patients with daily living, and medical office staff manage the schedules, records and billing that keep a clinic open. When one of these roles sits empty, the pressure spreads across the whole team and patients notice. Finch recruits across nursing, support and administrative roles, so you can fill the gap with someone suitable.

We work with employers across Toronto and the GTA, from single-physician offices in North York to long-term care homes in York, Peel and Durham. Our searches are retainer-based, with fees agreed for each position. After an initial consultation, we advertise, source and screen candidates, then present a shortlist and arrange interviews. We confirm registrations and certifications where they apply, so you spend your time meeting serious candidates.

Why hiring nurses and medical staff takes a specialist

Registered nurses, practical nurses and nurse practitioners must hold current College of Nurses of Ontario registration, and each class has a different scope of practice.

Skilled nurses and PSWs often have several offers to consider, so roles that are vague about shifts, duties or support are easily passed over.

Medical office staff need specific knowledge of OHIP billing, EMR systems and patient privacy, which general office experience does not always cover.

Long-term care, home care and clinic settings each demand different skills, and a candidate who thrives in one may struggle in another.

  • College of Nurses of Ontario registration and class, confirmed on the public register

Nursing & medical staff recruitment: questions employers ask

What types of medical staff does Finch recruit?

We recruit registered nurses, registered practical nurses, nurse practitioners, personal support workers, medical office assistants, medical receptionists, clinic managers and medical laboratory technicians. Our focus is direct hires for your organization, not temporary staffing. If your role is not listed, ask during the consultation and we will tell you whether we can help.

How do your fees work?

Finch works on a retainer basis. We agree on a fee for each position based on its requirements, and the retainer is paid up front to begin the search. That commitment lets us dedicate real time to advertising, sourcing and screening for your role, rather than competing to send the most résumés.

Do you check nursing registration?

Yes. For RNs, RPNs and nurse practitioners, we confirm each candidate's registration and class on the College of Nurses of Ontario public register before you meet them, and we note any terms, conditions or limitations. You should still complete your own verification at hire, as your organization's policies require.
