About              PROVIDENCE HEALTHCARE

At Providence Healthcare, part of Unity Health Toronto, we
are leaders in providing rehabilitation, palliative care, long-
term care, and community programs. Adults of all ages
rehabilitate with us after strokes, orthopedic surgery, lower
limb amputations and other complex medical conditions.
Our strength is providing compassionate care when and
where it matters most.
                                       We motivate and
                                       empower our patients,
                                       challenging them
                                       each and every day to
                                       realize how resilient
                                       they truly are.
                                       We are Providence and
                                       we exist to inspire
                                       strength in our patients
                                       and community.
