These days, we are experiencing a period of unprecedented growth and change at Hotel Dieu Hospital as we chart a path that will define us as leaders in the transformation of ambulatory health care.

Our path follows the contours of a bold strategic plan, which is helping us to map out a new model for delivering excellent care and excellent patient/family experience; engaging our staff; enhancing our performance; advancing our teaching and research mission; and engaging in purposeful health care and academic partnerships.

A key landmark on our path forward is a $20-million redevelopment project that will eventually allow us to accommodate most specialized outpatient clinics in this region under one roof. A highly visible sign of our vision for the future of outpatient care, this redevelopment project is the first of many milestones geared to ensuring we provide the highest quality of patient care, teaching and research.

These are exciting times for Hotel Dieu Hospital. We welcome the opportunities they bring and the growth they promise.
