Starting as a hospital for Canadian veterans, Sunnybrook has flourished into a teaching hospital fully affiliated with the University of Toronto, evolving to meet the needs of their growing community.
Their team provides expert and compassionate care to patients from across Ontario, and delivers a wide range of sometimes unique education to thousands of learners each year. The Sunnybrook team also conducts research and implements innovations that are shaping the future of health care. Since their first patient in 1946, Sunnybrook has evolved and expanded into a network of integrated sites and campuses representing the full continuum of care, including pre-hospital, acute and post-acute, and key specialty services for the province.
Today, with 1.3 million patient visits each year, Sunnybrook is home to three campuses and the largest trauma centre in Canada. Sunnybrook’s groundbreaking research changes the way patients are treated around the world. Over 200 Sunnybrook scientists and clinician-scientists conduct more than $100 million worth of breakthrough research each year.
