Niagara Health is on a bold journey to transform hospital care in Niagara. As a regional hospital system with multiple sites, Niagara Health is committed to delivering extraordinary care to nearly 500,000 residents. A community-based academic centre, Niagara Health drives innovation through leading-edge research, education and strategic partnerships. With a dedicated team of over 7,300 staff, physicians, and volunteers, the organization provides compassionate, high-quality care across a full continuum of acute services, including emergency medicine, mental health and addictions, cancer, cardiac, kidney, and women’s and children’s health. Niagara Health is one of the few hospitals in Ontario that owns and operates a long-term care facility.
As Niagara Health advances toward a modernized three-site hospital model, including the new South Niagara Hospital opening in 2028, the organization remains steadfast in its vision of a Healthier Niagara and its purpose: Extraordinary Caring. Every Person. Every Time.
