Poised For The Future
Situated in one of Canada's most desirable and fastest growing areas, Halton Healthcare Services is poised to keep pace with the explosive population growth in southwestern Ontario.
At OTMH, both the emergency department and ambulatory care facilities have recently been expanded. Plans are on the way to renovate and expand the diagnostic imaging and maternal/child care areas over the next five years.
In development is a Women's Health Centre designed to reduce waiting times for mammograms, bone density tests and ultrasounds for women living in the Halton region. The new centre is expected to perform an estimated 8,715 mammograms, 1,973 bone density tests and 21,125 ultrasound procedures annually. Construction will begin in the Fall 2000.
At our MDH site, planning is currently underway to expand the ambulatory care area and to renovate the obstetrics and day surgery facilities. Sixty percent of the hospital has been completely renovated over the years, and the latest addition was built only ten years ago offering a modern community hospital well-positioned to meet the needs of its rapidly growing population.
Recognizing the specialized needs of the elderly, Halton Healthcare Services will be developing 96 long term care beds in Halton Hills, and has worked to develop a a long term care/nursing home facility on property adjacent to OTMH.
