About Us

Scarborough Health Network (SHN) is shaping the future of care, designing a more integrated healthcare system for one of Canada’s most diverse communities. For more than 850,000 people throughout the eastern Greater Toronto Area, this will mean quicker access to the safest, highest quality healthcare, right here in Scarborough.

We operate three full-service hospitals and several community-based locations, with essential services including emergency, diagnostic imaging, surgery, and rehabilitation care. We are experts in stroke, mental health, and seniors care, as well as orthopaedics and chronic disease management. Our facilities feature advanced birthing centres for moms, newborns, and growing families. We host one of North America’s largest regional nephrology programs and cardiovascular rehabilitation services, and we are a designated cardiac centre for the Central East region of Ontario.

Our workforce comes from all over the world, speaks more than 20 languages, and brings their diverse perspectives to deliver compassionate and inclusive care tailored for our community. We are achieving greater health equity by providing accessible healthcare to newcomers, addressing health conditions prevalent among multicultural populations, and removing barriers to healthcare for everyone.

We are proud to be a leader in transforming how our health system is working together to improve the health of our community. Along with being a Scarborough Ontario Health Team partner and working collaboratively with the Scarborough Family Physicians Network, we are a key partner for the University of Toronto’s Scarborough Academy of Medicine and Integrated Health; member of the Toronto Academic Health Science Network; and partner with other universities and colleges. In addition, SHN Research Institute is at the forefront of multicultural health research, grounded in understanding the unique healthcare needs of Scarborough.

Underpinning our commitment to exceptional quality care is the Love, Scarborough fundraising campaign, helping us to Build It Forward through a multi-year capital expansion and renewal strategy. We are bringing innovative, state-of-the-art hospital facilities, equipment, and technology to our health network to meet Scarborough’s evolving needs into the future.
