Hôpital Maisonneuve-Rosemont is a hospital in Montreal, Quebec, Canada, located in the boroughs of Rosemont–La Petite-Patrie and Mercier-Hochelaga-Maisonneuve. It serves the eastern part of the city and offers 800 beds. It employs 5,000 people and 3,000 students annually.
Hôpital Maisonneuve-Rosemont was founded in 1971 as a result of a merger of two previous hospitals: Hôpital Maisonneuve and Hôpital Saint-Joseph de Rosemont.[1]
Hôpital Maisonneuve was founded by the Grey Nuns in 1954 and housed a nursing school and the Montreal Heart Institute. Hôpital Saint-Joseph de Rosemont was built in 1948 and was founded in 1950 by the Misericordia Sisters. It specialized in treating tuberculosis.
Hôpital Maisonneuve-Rosemont offers general medical care, but it is known for specializing in a few particular areas: ophthalmology, stem cell treatments of various cancers, and nephrology.
