About WRH

Windsor Regional Hospital is one of the largest hospitals in Ontario, serving a population of about 400,000 people in Windsor and Essex County.

We respectfully acknowledge that the Windsor Regional Hospital occupies the traditional, ancestral and contemporary lands of the Niswi Ishkodewan Anishinaabeg: The Three Fires Confederacy (Ojibwe, Odawa, and Potawatomi). We acknowledge the land and the surrounding waters for sustaining us and we are committed to protecting and restoring these lands and waters from environmental degradation.

The hospital provides acute care services and operates two campuses. WRH has over 4300 employees, 550 professional staff, 400 volunteers, and more than 150 medical school students and resident physicians. WRH is the regional provider of advanced care and provides the following services for the entire former Erie St. Clair LHIN: Complex Trauma, Renal Dialysis, Cardiac Care, Stroke and Neurosurgery Intensive Care, Acute Mental Health, Family Birthing Centre, Neonatal Intensive Care, Paediatric services, and Regional Cancer Services.

A standardization and optimization process began to align programs and services more efficiently, effectively, and cooperatively with the patient at the forefront as WRH approaches the goal of a new single-site, state-of-the-art acute care hospital for Windsor and Essex County.

The New Windsor-Essex Hospitals System is a once-in-a-lifetime, major system reform that will transform hospital services in Windsor-Essex. The collaborative and local plan will provide patients the right care, in the right place, at the right time, for generations to come.
