Patient Centred Care at the Heart of the MUHC
The Glen site of the McGill University Health Centre (MUHC) is a bilingual academic health network home to the Royal Victoria Hospital, the Montreal Children’s Hospital, the Montreal Chest Institute, the Research Institute of the MUHC (RI-MUHC) and the Cedars Cancer Centre. At the heart of the MUHC is patient centred care so that patients and their families receive the best possible healthcare experience. All MUHC hospitals have Patient Resource Centres which, taking a personalized approach, provide each patient and family with relevant medical resources and support.
The MUHC has a global reputation for excellence and achievement in virtually every medical discipline. A large portion of the clinical and scientific training programs managed by McGill University’s Faculty of Medicine — one of the leading medical schools in North America – are carried out within MUHC hospitals. The RI-MUHC supports more than 427 researchers devoted to a broad spectrum of fundamental clinical and health outcomes research which produce over 1,800 peer reviewed publications per year.
Power Corporation is proud to support the MUHC’s personalized and exceptional standard of care.
MUHC is a prime example of the ‘think global, act local’ philosophy.
