The transformation of healthcare service delivery across Niagara continues with planning underway to build an additional ultramodern hospital in South Niagara Falls to provide accessible and quality healthcare to residents of the Southern Region. Niagara Health is positioned, by virtue of its geography and regionally distributed resources, to exemplify the best of regional capacity with local service delivery.
Strong academic partnerships are a priority for the NHS as the organization builds on a robust relationship with McMaster University's Michael G. DeGroote School of Medicine. Since its founding in 1966, innovation has been the hallmark of McMaster University's Michael G. DeGroote School of Medicine and a major contributor to its international reputation for excellence. The medical school has expanded to a regional campus in Niagara, which is located at Brock University. Students at the Niagara Regional Campus complete their clinical rotations in one of the six area hospitals with teaching done by the highly skilled and motivated hospital physicians. Opportunities for strengthening and building strong academic partnerships are a priority for the NHS as the hospital has expanded into this new facility. We are interested in physicians who will pursue a university faculty appointment and participate in academic activities within a strong regional community hospital setting. In addition to McMaster, Niagara Health is building strong ties with other regional academic providers such as Brock University and Niagara College.
