Jamaicans shattering the ceilings in Canada’s healthcare system
At
age nine, Dionne Sinclair was told by her Jamaican primary school
educator, ‘Teacher Thomas’, that she was her “Scholarship Girl”, and
that title directed her life throughout her illustrious career in the
medical field in Canada.
Sinclair, who has made history by being
named vice-president of Complex Care & Recovery & Chief Nursing
Executive of Ontario’s largest mental health facility, the Centre for
Addiction and Mental Health (CAMH), is one of the few black women in
Canada’s healthcare system in such a position.
On July 26, she
steps into her new position, where she will have 3,000 people reporting
to her, while managing a budget of C$92 million.
Making the
massive move to CAMH straight out of the Southlake Regional Hospital,
Toronto, where she served as Multi-site Director in Diversity and
Cultural Advancement, identifying gaps and developing strategies to
create more just and equitable workplaces, the Resort, Manchester-born
nurse, who holds a master’s in healthcare management, was forced to
leave Canadian high school in 10th grade because of her accent; instead,
she was told to take up vocational training.

LIFE-CHANGING INFLUENCE
Had
it not been for Teacher Thomas’ influence, which spurred Sinclair’s
determination, the advice from her Canadian high school guidance
counsellor that she was not college or university material would
probably have been realised, but scholarship-oriented students are not
easily dissuaded, particularly if they are coming from a solid
foundation, and Sinclair had that in her favour.
“We were told to
get our education in high school, so we, my brother Steve and I, were
put in a technical school in London, Ontario, called HB Beale. I went
into practical nursing and he did sheet metal work,” Sinclair told The
Sunday Gleaner.
Hearing that the only education she could qualify
for was high school was something Sinclair said never occurred to her
at the time.
“An adult saying I am going to be done in high
school and I never had to do any more school, I thought, ‘wow, what a
sweet deal’,” she recalled.
The black and Caribbean students were
not alone, though. Anyone who didn’t speak ‘English’, such as the
Asians, were put into dry cleaning and the Spanish into the hospitality
sector so they could change the sheets in the hotels. This was the 1980s
in London, Ontario, where Sinclair’s parents moved to from Jamaica.
But,
like a true trojan, the five-feet-four-inches tall woman did
exceptionally well in the Registered Practical Nursing (RPN) programme,
actually topping her class and went further, outpacing her peers in the
provincial exam to get her nursing licence, inspiring an unbiased
teacher who recommended her to a diploma class at Fanshawe College.
And
that was all the encouragement Sinclair needed to become a registered
nurse. Of course, the stumbling blocks were not out of her way. She had
to tutor herself in 11th, 12th and 13th grade physics, biology and
chemistry, because she had only made it to high school.
No easy
nut to crack, her tenacity and diligence paid off, and today she quips
about the struggle “dissecting the mitochondria (membrane-bound cell
organelles that generate most of the chemical energy needed to power the
cell’s biochemical reactions) into something, something”.
Entering
two years of college at the University of Western Ontario without the
requisite subjects, Sinclair still graduated with a 95 per cent average,
“because I am Teacher Thomas’ scholarship girl and I could not fail”.
By
then she had become a mother of two, and knowing their future was in
her hands, she said failure was just not an option. Her parents were
their guardian angels and like Jamaican families are renowned for,
helped with the kids, while Sinclair was awarded her Bachelor of Science
in Nursing.
UPWARD MOBILITY
The country girl from the cool
hills of Manchester, where today the mangoes fall from the trees during
season because there aren’t enough mouths to eat, graduated with her
BSc, and immediately decided she couldn’t go back to bedpans in the
hospitals.
It has been upward mobility since. She worked in the
prison system as head nurse, taking the first institution she handled
out of paper into automation. Within a few years, the Ministry of
Corrections saw her worth and transferred her to Ottawa to set up an
infirmary on a hospital wing inside the jail there.
Slowly,
Sinclair became an agent of change in every environment she was placed,
and because she was ambitious she couldn’t settle for anything that
seemed stagnant. She had climbed the highest ladder in the system as
healthcare coordinator and moved on next to the Royal Ottawa Hospital as
a supervisor.
Again, she knew what she could bring to the table
and in two years in quality improvement, she helped them through
successful accreditation. Her next stint was at Humber River Hospital,
where she met her mentor, Paula Villafana, director of mental health and
addictions at the medical facility.
The rest is history, she
said. “Paula saw my potential and she gave me a lot of leadership
development, by coaching me and encouraging me when I decided to leave
to become a director elsewhere.”
Sinclair moved into the world of
directorship and started her first post in this new realm as director
of complex care at St Vincent Hospital, where she had 330 beds, and
managers and supervisors reporting to her directly.
At age 53, this Jamaican girl has shattered all the ceilings ever hovering over her head.
