Steady progress! We’re making great strides in transforming our facilities! The location of the ambulance bay is being prepared, while updated spaces for our Short Stay Assessment Unit and Mental Health and Addictions Emergency Follow-up Services are beginning to take shape.

The main lobby now features modern public restrooms. Work will soon begin on a modernized Laboratory Medicine department, and improvements continue at our community-based medical centre at Conestoga College.

These transformational projects are made possible thanks to the provincial government, The Foundation of Guelph General Hospital, and this community. We are making great strides in building a healthier future.
