HGH Accredited with Exemplary Standing

In November 2022, we completed another continuous improvement cycle with the visit of Accreditation Canada. And for the third time in a row, HGH received the highest ranking awarded to a hospital: Accredited with Exemplary Standing. Only one in five healthcare organizations in Canada manages to obtain this level of accreditation. This accreditation reflects the excellence and high degree of engagement and accountability demonstrated by all HGH staff and physicians. The accomplishment is true to our mission to provide compassionate care to our patients and families throughout the cycle of life.
