Lachine Hospital (Template:Lang-fr) is a public hospital in Montreal, Quebec, Canada. It is located at 650 16th Avenue in the borough of Lachine (at the corner of Saint Antoine Street). It is the only French-language hospital on the western portion of the Island of Montreal.

A community general hospital, it offers a range of services including ophthalmology, cardiology, general surgery, laboratory services and medical imaging (MRI, CT scan, Radiography, and Ultrasound).

The Lachine Hospital is currently involved in a major modernization project.[1] The $95 million project is being developed in partnership with the Ministry of Health and Social Services (MHSS) and the Société québécoise des infrastructures (SQI).

History

Established in 1913 as the Hôpital St-Joseph, it was administered by the Sisters of Providence.[2] In 1973, its name was changed to Centre hospitalier de Lachine and its management was transferred to the Government of Quebec.

The Lachine Hospital and its long-term nursing home (Camille-Lefebvre Pavillon) were integrated into the McGill University Health Centre in 2008.
