Why are we spending money to build a hospital when we don’t have enough doctors and nurses?

To improve our health care network, we need to invest both in revitalizing our facilities and in hiring and retaining doctors, nurses, and other health care professionals.

Competition for the most skilled and knowledgeable health care staff is fierce, not only here in Quebec, but also throughout North America. Graduates in medicine, nursing and related fields prefer to work in modern facilities that can meet the highest standards in infection control, accommodate the latest advances in technology and promote the most innovative approaches to patient care, teaching and research.

The MUHC has earned an international reputation for excellence. Its redevelopment project will serve as a powerful tool for recruiting and retaining world-class health care professionals.
