Jeanette McDonald Corbin, R.N.
NU-EMA, Medical Adjudicator
Chatham, ON

I have been working as a Registered Nurse since 1995 in various positions; community nursing, hospital, a specialist’s office and for Telehealth Ontario. In October 2007, I began working in my current position as a Medical Adjudicator in the Chatham office serving Canadians as part of one of the largest teams of medical adjudicators in Canada.

My passion is about supporting members by recognizing that we have both shared countrywide issues as well as individual workplace concerns. My goal has always been to unite the members and improve the workplace. Today, we are all faced with ever changing processes. I recognize the importance of good communication with all members across Canada. We make positive change and become stronger together with input from you (the member), involvement with our national consultation team, and support from our National SH Executive Team.
