New Hospital Campus
Our new hospital campus will be home to one of the most modern and technologically advanced academic research hospitals in Canada — the catalyst to reshaping the future of healthcare in our community and beyond, for generations.
It's more than just a building.
Our bold plan includes not only a world-class healthcare centre, but a continuously evolving space for innovation and state-of-the-art technology that brings the latest medical advances and research breakthroughs to the bedside.
It will be designed to enhance the patient experience and provide the very highest standard of care.
Together, we are turning a vision into reality.
Community support has already propelled this historic project forward, helping lay the foundation of a stronger, smarter, and more connected healthcare system. But there is still important work ahead.
With your support, we will turn this vision into reality and create a better tomorrow.
This new campus will help reshape the future of healthcare in our community and prepare us for the next century of care, innovation, and discovery.
Reshaping care across our region and beyond
Our approach reaches far beyond the new campus and into the community to create a stronger, smarter, and more connected healthcare system that serves patients before, during, and long after their hospital stay.
More than a hospital
The new campus is the foundation of a broader model of care that improves access, strengthens community-based services, and supports patients in hospital and beyond.
Pioneering a “smart” future
The new campus is being designed to integrate advanced technology and digital tools that support more proactive, coordinated, and patient-centred care.
Creating a connected healthcare journey
Care at the new hospital is designed to support patients before, during, and after their hospital stay, enabling smoother transitions and more coordinated care.
Community partnerships
Through partnerships with more than 21 satellite locations across Eastern Ontario, Western Quebec, and Nunavut, we are expanding access to specialized care closer to home and strengthening care across the region.
Leadership in home care
Planning for the new campus reflects a growing focus on caring for patients beyond hospital walls, supporting models that extend care into the community and home.
Transitional and long-term care
The new campus is part of a broader approach to ensuring patients can move more smoothly from hospital care to the next stage of recovery, with continued clinical support where needed.
Building capacity in the community
By reshaping how and where care is delivered, the new campus supports a more flexible healthcare system that improves access and capacity across the region.
Single-patient rooms
Space for loved ones to stay overnight.
The one-patient-per-room model will enhance infection prevention and control, helping us better protect patients, families, and staff members.
Private, accessible bathrooms each with their own shower designed for patient comfort, independence, and safety.
Extra space around the patient bed will ensure healthcare workers have clear, unrestricted access to provide the care patients need.
In-room digital screens will connect patients to their care providers, health information, and appointments, while allowing them to stay in touch with loved ones.
Expansive windows for an abundance of natural light and views of the outdoors to see land and sky simultaneously, to help improve wellness.
Dedicated hand hygiene stations will be located inside patient rooms for healthcare providers and visitors.
Designed to be one of the most sustainable healthcare facilities in Canada
Targeting LEED Silver certification, the new hospital campus will reduce environmental impact, conserve energy and water, minimize waste, and will be designed to adapt to future needs.
LEED Silver
Target certification
Reduce energy use with high-performance building systems, insulation, and window treatments
Climate and disaster resilient to keep hospital systems operational during disruptions and extreme events
Accessible pathways for pedestrians, wheelchair users, cyclists, and LRT passengers
Minimize human and food waste as part of modern sustainable operations
Planning for water conservation across the campus, including landscaping and building systems
Zero-emission transportation supported with EV-ready infrastructure and a transit-oriented site
Green roofs and a rooftop park to improve air quality, manage stormwater, and enhance patient wellbeing
Native species of trees, shrubs and other vegetation will support biodiversity and local pollinators
Net Zero ready and solar ready so that as regulations and CSA guidelines are updated, we'll have the flexibility to adapt
Building one of Canada's most accessible hospitals
Incorporating best practices of universal accessibility and ensuring compliance with the Accessibility for Ontarians with Disabilities Act (AODA), the hospital design aims to accommodate a wide range of abilities and make navigating the facilities efficient for everyone.
Well-connected to public transit.
Easy to understand and predictable wayfinding.
Exploring moving sidewalks to help people get to their destinations quickly and comfortably.
Each patient room will have an accessible washroom with space for wheelchairs and other mobility aids.
Care for everyone.
We’ll continue to focus on recruiting a diverse workforce and providing dignified and compassionate care to patients of any age, ethnicity, gender, sexual orientation, religious background, or socioeconomic status.
The Ottawa Hospital is guided by an Indigenous Peoples Advisory Circle (the Circle) to ensure care spaces are culturally safe and free of discrimination. With an evolving membership of First Nation, Inuit and Métis leaders, health experts, organizations and health service providers, the Circle identifies reconciliatory priorities at TOH and informs design and development planning for the new campus.
