Lachine Hospital (French: Hôpital de Lachine) is a public hospital in Montreal, Quebec, Canada. It is located at 650 16th Avenue in the borough of Lachine (at the corner of Saint Antoine Street).
A community general hospital, it offers a range of services including ophthalmology, cardiology, general surgery, laboratory services and medical imaging (MRI, CT scan, Radiography, and Ultrasound).
The Lachine Hospital is currently involved in a major modernization project.[1] The $220 million project is being developed in partnership with the Ministry of Health and Social Services (MHSS) and the Société québécoise des infrastructures (SQI).
History
[edit]Established in 1913 as the Hôpital St-Joseph, it was administered by the Sisters of Providence.[2] In 1973, its name was changed to Centre hospitalier de Lachine and its management was transferred to the Government of Quebec.
The Lachine Hospital and its long-term nursing home (Camille-Lefebvre Pavillon) were integrated into the McGill University Health Centre in 2008.
