Mission Statement
Mount Sinai Hospital Montreal was founded in 1909 in St. Agathe des Monts, by members of the Jewish community who recognized a need for a tuberculosis sanatorium. The threat of tuberculosis diminished greatly by the 1950s, and Mount Sinai became an intermediate care facility specializing in chronic obstructive pulmonary diseases such as emphysema, bronchitis, asthma and other respiratory illnesses. Mount Sinai subsequently moved to Montreal in 1990 to be closer to the population it served, with 107 beds, an out-patient department and a wide range of diagnostic and treatment services. Mount Sinai has always been a pioneer in raising the standards of healthcare services. Today, the hospital is a state-of-the-art institution, specializing in Respiratory Care, Palliative Care and Long-Term Care. We are a McGill University affiliated hospital and are accredited by Accreditation Canada.
About This Cause
The Mount Sinai Hospital Foundation was formed in 1973 by a highly dedicated group of community leaders who were determined to lend crucial fundraising support to the programs and services of Mount Sinai Hospital. The Mission of the Foundation is to raise funds in order to benefit the patients and families. Our funding supports services and programs by supplementing basic operating costs provided by the government. We also provide funding for equipment purchases and to support hospital priorities as they emerge. The objective of the Foundation is to contribute to the well-being, comfort and health of patients and their families, based on needs established by the Hospital Center.
