Montfort Hospital (French: Hôpital Montfort), commonly shortened to Montfort in both English and French, is a teaching hospital[1] affiliated with the University of Ottawa. It offers short-term primary and secondary health care, offering service in both the French and English language. The hospital serves over 1.2 million residents of Eastern Ontario, and the Gatineau region of Quebec. Montfort is the only hospital in Ottawa that administers in French and the only Francophone academic healthcare institution west of the province of Quebec.[2]
In 2014 and 2018, Montfort was accredited by Accreditation Canada.[3] It was recognized as a "Best Practice Spotlight Organization" from the Registered Nurses’ Association of Ontario (RNAO).[4] In June 2013, the hospital was designated a Group A teaching hospital.[1]
Montfort trains Francophone healthcare professionals with the help of the hospital's knowledge institute, the Institut du Savoir Montfort (ISM), and in collaboration with its main partners, the University of Ottawa and La Cité college as well as other post-secondary education programs. In 2015, it was ranked as Canada's top 40 research hospitals owing to the activities of ISM-Research.
The executive management team is led by chief executive officer Dr. Bernard Leduc.[5] The medical team reports to Chief of Staff Dr. Thierry Daboval.[6] The chair of the board of trustees is Carl Nappert.[7]
Montfort opened in 1953. It was secularized in 1970. It expanded in 1992, and again in 2010.[8]
