YOUR Kemptville District Hospital
Kemptville District Hospital is a 40-bed acute care hospital located in the rapidly growing Eastern Ontario municipality of North Grenville, 40 minutes south of Ottawa. Our services include 24-hour emergency care, inpatient care, advanced orthopaedic surgery (as a satellite of The Ottawa Hospital), and outpatient care. We are an integrated health services organization with deep partnerships in our community and region. With our partners in the Ottawa West Four Rivers Ontario Health Team, we are collaborating on a new model of health care delivery that puts patients, families and caregivers at the centre of the health care system.

Staff Profile
Steve WebberMaintenance Mechanic, Stationary Engineering Team Lead
As a Stationary Engineer, I am licensed to operate KDH’s three steam boilers and all ancillary equipment such as air handling units, air conditioning units, pneumatic and digital controls. As a team, we perform preventative maintenance on all of our HVAC and plumbing equipment. We monitor and fulfil work service requests throughout the hospital. We also do our best to fix what gets broken. I liaise with our contract service providers to ensure they have what they need to perform work that we cannot do.
Prior to working at KDH, I was retired (for one year) from the City of Nepean and Ottawa after 36 years of service. My wife had her knee surgery at KDH and we were both so impressed with the staff and care she received. As a result, when I saw a posting on the hospital website for a maintenance position, I applied. I was eventually encouraged to apply for the Team Lead position when my predecessor announced his retirement. So, in effect, KDH chose me and gave me, a retiree, a chance at a second career I never knew I wanted but greatly appreciate.
Being able to still contribute to the hospital and community I live in gives me great satisfaction.
“I was fortunate enough to have my Total Hip Arthroplasty at KDH. I experienced warm and lovely care everywhere from the moment I walked in until I was discharged. I’d like to express my deep gratitude to the staff on the inpatient surgical unit. The nursing care was exceptional and made a huge difference to my recovery. They always responded to calls and concerns and were kind and supportive at every step (literally and figuratively) in the process. I'd like to give particular mention to Sharon. As a patient, I particularly enjoyed her expertise and confidence in helping me to progress to the next step. She is a quiet, valuable asset to your hospital.”
