I have my orientation on Thursday at HRRH. Just wondering if there is anything you should be prepared with for it other than the mountain of paperwork that needs to be filled out?

I suggest completing the forms and making a photocopy for your files. Some people have handed in forms only to have them go astray (always good to have a back-up), and it also acts as a good reference to have on hand when filling out other forms.

Make sure you double check which site your Orientation is at... Keele or Finch. That goes for all appointments as some might be at the clinic and others may be at a doctor's office off-site.

Good luck and welcome to the journey!!!

I would also add if you are a "eat on the run kinda person" like I used to be, a quiet snack. I felt like everyone was looking at me while I was eating my breakfast during orientation and it was only a muffin, in a noisy paper bag!
