St. Joseph's Health System

Wed Sept 15, 5:30pm - The 4th annual Tour de Hospital, a fun ride for all abilities between hospitals in Hamilton. Starts/ends at Hamilton Bike Share for those needing a ride! tourdehospital2021.eventbrite.ca @HHS_staff @SJHealthSystem @SmartCommuteHam #HamOnt @MohawkCollege #MacPGME

I was honoured to attend the opening of Margaret's Place Hospice today. Working with partners like @SJHealthSystem, our government is building an integrated health care system that ensures Ontarians receive the care, dignity and respect they deserve throughout their lives.

Now is a time to lead and protect the health and safety of our workforce and our community #onhealth #onpoli

We support Ontario’s new vaccination policy for healthcare settings. We appeal to all to get vaccinated. Two-dose vaccination is the single most impactful tool currently available to protect those we care for & our workforce as we confront the 4th wave: bit.ly/3mfXYxo

It was an absolute pleasure to tour St. Joseph’s Healthcare’s world-class facilities with @celliottability and @SkellyHamilton. Our government has invested more than $1.2B to ensure hospitals can continue to provide the high-quality patient care Ontarians need and deserve.
