Our Mission
Guided by the needs of the clients and the communities we serve, Saint Brigid's – Jeffery Hale Hospital's overall mission is firmly anchored in providing primary care. We are legally mandated as a Residential and Long Term Care Centre with complementary missions for Hospital Centre services and Community (CLSC) services.
We also have the mandate to serve the region's English-speaking population. To fulfill this role, in addition to offering all of our services in English, we pursue various initiatives to ensure that this community has access to care and services in their language.
We collaborate actively with our institutional and community partners in the region in providing:
Geriatric care services for seniors facing loss of autonomy
- 264 long-term care beds (162 at Saint Brigid’s Home, 102 at Jeffery Hale);
- a 23-bed community geriatrics unit, including seven palliative care beds, as well as;
- specialised consultative geriatric and psycho-geriatric services.
General and community services for all age groups
- a walk-in emergency, diagnostic services (medical imagery and lab tests), and an outpatient clinic
- Community Services (CLSC) for English-speakers consisting of family, child and youth services, psychosocial and mental health services, as well as seniors' homecare and day center services.
Together for the good of all
We promote togetherness among our sites by sharing best practices and expertise. At the same time, however, we also aim to maintain the unique identities of each long-standing organization in order to preserve their history and notable accomplishments.
At Saint Brigid’s – Jeffery Hale Hospital we are constantly striving to increase our appeal by offering high quality services with a warm and welcoming touch.
