The Ottawa Hospital (French: L'Hôpital d'Ottawa) is a hospital system in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada. The system was formed through the merger of the former Grace Hospital, Ottawa Riverside Hospital, Ottawa General Hospital and Ottawa Civic Hospital. The system is affiliated with the University of Ottawa, and its three campuses are all non-profit, public teaching hospitals (the University of Ottawa Heart Institute is located at the hospital's Civic Campus).
The Ottawa Hospital's Civic campus is also one of the two trauma centres serving Eastern Ontario and southern Quebec. The other is the Children's Hospital of Eastern Ontario, accommodating juvenile and adolescent patients.
The Ottawa Hospital's General campus is home to the Ottawa Hospital Cancer Center, the main site of the Ottawa Hospital Cancer Program and the Champlain Regional Cancer Program.[1] This program runs in conjunction with the Irving Greenberg Family Cancer Centre located at the Queensway Carleton Hospital, located on the western side of Ottawa, also operated by the Ottawa Hospital.[1] The General Campus provides specialized in and outpatient services for hematological diseases, as well as radiation and medical oncology.[2][3][4]
