A Proud Supporter of Brightshores Health System
Brightshores Health System is at the heart of our communities, providing essential healthcare services that impact lives across Grey and Bruce counties. Operating six hospitals in one of Ontario’s largest geographic regions, we serve a predominantly rural population of 175,000 residents, thousands of seasonal residents and more than two million annual tourists. Our dedicated team of 2,100+ staff, 250+ physicians and 1,000+ volunteers delivers a full range of services, including 24/7 emergency care at every hospital site. The continuous development of specialty programs in cancer, stroke, kidney disease and more ensures patients receive quality care and support within our regional network of hospitals across Grey Bruce. Brightshores experts are advancing research that addresses the distinct needs of rural healthcare. Our first-of-its-kind Wellness & Recovery Centre, which provides treatment and recovery under one roof, is recognized as a provincial model to respond to the mental health and addictions crisis.
Our New Hospital is Just the Beginning
Our community worked together to help bring a new hospital to Markdale, raising more than $15 million in support of the hospital that opened its doors in 2023. While this was a tremendous achievement, our work is not yet finished.
In Ontario, the Ministry of Health funds the day-to-day operation of hospitals. However, many essential items such as medical equipment, technology, and major upgrades are supported through community fundraising.
The new hospital is open because of our community’s generosity, and continued support helps ensure the care inside its walls remains strong, modern, and close to home.
