Job Details

Claxton-Hepburn Medical Center on the St. Lawrence River (The Thousand Islands Region) is in the Northeastern Tier of N.Y.S. on the Canadian border (above the snow belt). Ottawa (Canada’s Capital) is 45 minutes away and Montreal is two hours away. Both are an integral part of our lifestyle offering diverse cultural, shopping, and dining options.

The St. Lawrence River and The Thousand Islands provide crystal clear waters to enjoy water sports. Our close proximity to the Adirondack Mountains and Lake Placid ensure great skiing, hiking, and camping. The wine trail for the Thousand Islands starts here and Farmers Markets abound in the area.

Our local school system (K-12) offers strong academic programs, special needs support with a large variety of sports programs and extracurricular activities. Additionally, there are four colleges within a 30-minute radius.  

Housing options include waterfront property; in-town homes, and farmland, are all affordably priced (even for the new graduate). The reasonable cost of living here allows you to enjoy all this and more (travel, cottage, boat, or even a ski chalet…..).
