The Canadian Healthcare Housekeepers’ Association (CHHA), formerly the Ontario Healthcare Housekeepers Association (OHHA), was formed in 1957, when housekeeping personnel gathered at the Ontario Hospital Association (OHA) Annual Convention and formed an association of healthcare housekeepers. As an integral part of the healthcare team for patients and residents in healthcare facilities in Ontario, CHHA is taking its mission to represent healthcare housekeepers and environmental services professionals across Canada. To better reflect its new national goals, the association is now known as the Canadian Healthcare Housekeepers Association (CHHA). CHHA offers opportunities for housekeeping management staff, lead hands, and frontline staff through standardized educational programs and networking opportunities.
