About The Ottawa Hospital

The Ottawa Hospital (TOH) is one of Canada's largest learning and research multi-campus hospitals. With more than 1,400 beds and approximately 17,000 staff, physicians, residents and volunteers, we deliver specialized care to the Eastern Ontario, Western Quebec and Eastern Nunavut regions. At The Ottawa Hospital, we don't just serve our community, we belong to the community. That insight is at the heart of our ambitious plan to reshape the future of healthcare for our community.

From the compassion of our people to the relentless pursuit of new discoveries, The Ottawa Hospital never stops seeking innovative solutions to the most complex health care challenges while continually engaging with the community to support our vision to provide each patient with the kind of care and compassion we would want for our loved ones.

Working together with its research institute, the University of Ottawa, and other partners, the hospital is continually gaining national and international recognition for high-quality patient care, teaching and research, while striving to meet the needs of the culturally diverse community we serve.
