The Excellent Care for All Act, which received royal assent in June 2010, requires hospitals to develop an annual Quality Improvement Plan (QIP) for the following fiscal year and make it available to the public. The QIP provides the means for hospitals to communicate to their public, patients, and staff that they are committed to accountability and transparency, and focused on creating a positive patient experience and delivering high quality health care.
As part of our commitment to patient safety, quality improvement, and being open and transparent to the communities we serve, we are pleased to provide our stakeholders with the:

Public Sector Salary Disclosure
The Public Sector Salary Disclosure Act, 1996 is just one measure ensuring Ontario's public sector is transparent and accountable to taxpayers. The act requires organizations that receive public funding from the Province of Ontario to disclose annually the names, positions, salaries and total taxable benefits of employees paid $100,000 or more in a calendar year.
The act applies to organizations such as the Government of Ontario, Crown Agencies, Municipalities, Hospitals, Boards of Public Health, School Boards, Universities, Colleges, Hydro One, Ontario Power Generation, and other public sector employers who receive a significant level of funding from the provincial government.
Ontario’s hospitals operate in one of the most demanding, complex, accountable healthcare systems in all of Canada. Virtually every aspect of a hospital’s performance is regularly subject to external, independent scrutiny, including compensation of its employees. When salaries are set at Espanola Regional Hospital & Health Centre(ERHHC), they are based on many factors, including, competitive market rates, province-wide union settlements, and comprehensive evaluation conducted by an external agency. Benchmarking has shown that the salaries at ERHHC are on par with our peer hospitals of similar size and complexity across the province.
ERHHC’s salary disclosure is available on the web at: http://www.fin.gov.on.ca/en/publications/salarydisclosure/2012/index.html
