Sunnybrook Hospital Coop
The Sunnybrook Hospital Central Coop program is an opportunity to apply skills learned in school in a healthcare setting. Some positions are clinical and others are non-clinical. The on-site TDSB teacher organizes workshops and guest speakers for integration activities on Fridays. Students will have an opportunity to work with coop students from across the TDSB!
