We are reshaping the future of health care

Welcome to The Ottawa Hospital’s new strategic plan
A message from Cameron Love, President and CEO, Dr. Virginia Roth, Chief of Staff, and Claude Doucet, Chair, Board of Governors.
We are pleased to share with you our new strategic plan for The Ottawa Hospital, developed with the input of staff, physicians, patients, their families, and community members.
This is an iterative plan that will continue to evolve in response to our ever-changing social realities and priorities. This need to embed resilience and agility in our DNA was driven home by the pandemic, which also led us to rethink and reimagine The Ottawa Hospital’s role in our community, and in the health-care system itself.
We are
the people who care for you and are there for you, whenever you need us.
We are
your neighbours, your family, your friends.
Our vision
is to provide each patient with the world-class care, exceptional service, and compassion we would want for our loved ones.
At The Ottawa Hospital, we don’t just serve this community-we belong to this community, and that insight is at the heart of our ambitious plan for our shared future.
We are your doctors and nurses, your orderlies and technologists, your therapists, social workers, clerks, and custodians. Nearly 17,000 professionals in all, we represent an enormous diversity of expertise, experience, and cultures. In the coming years, The Ottawa Hospital will help reshape the future of health care to reflect 21st-century needs and innovations, looking beyond ‘the patient in the hospital’ to also support ‘the person in the community.’
