We are pleased to announce over Concordia Hospital remains COVID-19 outbreak free since early January 2021.  We do not have any COVID-19 positive inpatient cases at the facility.   Undoubtedly, practices initiated over the course of the last year have been successful in reducing the risk of transmission of COVID 19 in our hospitals and communities.  Our hospital staff ,  physicians and administration remain committed to vigilance in following the guidelines and policies set by Public Health Agency of  Canada (PHAC)  to ensure the safety of the  patients we serve, their  families, the community and our staff and physicians.         

As such, updated guidance from the PHAC recommends the use of medical masks by all staff, physicians, vendors, in-patients, out patients and visitors to acute health-care facilities and personal care homes as of March 15, 2021.   These efforts are aimed at finding a  balance between preventing the spread of this virus and ensuring we are able to ensure safe interaction between patients and their loved ones throughout every part of the Concordia Hospital and Concordia Place.  Your cooperation is very much appreciated.

About Concordia Hospital

Concordia Hospital was started in 1928 by a group of Mennonites who had immigrated to Canada from Russia. Seeing the need for health care in the growing immigrant community they started their first project, which was a 4 bed maternity hospital. This project would grow to become the present Concordia organization, which includes Concordia Hospital and Concordia Place. The blessing they had received by being able to immigrate to Canada motivated them.

Concordia’s mission, vision and values come from this Anabaptist/Mennonite heritage and commitment to mutual aid through compassionate service by offering compassionate care in the name of Christ and in the spirit of Christian community. Our focus is on healing all those we serve.

We believe that we have a mutual obligation to care for each other. Just as those that started Concordia showed it in 1928, we hope that you will feel that obligation as we care for you during your stay at Concordia today.
