Hôpital Glengarry Memorial Hospital (HGMH) is a rural Ontario community hospital that provides quality care in both official languages, and works with its partners to improve the health of communities in Stormont, Dundas & Glengarry and surrounding areas.
About HGMH:
Hôpital Glengarry Memorial Hospital (HGMH) is a 37 bed community hospital nestled in the family friendly community of Alexandria, Ontario, between Cornwall and Hawkesbury, on the Quebec-Ontario border, 1 hour from both Ottawa and Montreal, on the ViaRail train route. We are a culturally vibrant community with always something to see and do. We have an excellent variety of dining options for our size. If you love to stay active year round, we’ve got you covered with year-round soccer, golf, cross-country ski and fat bike trails, snowshoeing, snowmobiling, skydiving, kayak/canoeing, and a community pool (temporarily closed with COVID).
HGMH is run by family physicians providing inpatient, emergency and primary care services. Our emergency department serves approximately 20,000 people per year. We have in-house x-ray, ultrasound and lab, but no CT/MRI. We are home of the regional stroke and geriatric rehabilitation programs serving the entire population east of Ottawa. Because of this, we have excellent inpatient Physiotherapy, Occupational Therapy and SLP support. We offer multiple outpatient services that also support out inpatient clients, including endoscopy, respirology, stress testing, lump & bumps, general surgery, internal medicine, gynecology, urology, e-consult, orthopedics, pain clinic, PFTs, BMDs, and access to a geriatric psychiatry team for our inpatients.
