Are patients from the Shriners Children's Hospital seen at The Glen site?

Shiners Hospital for Children®- Canada is a private health care facility that specializes in pediatric orthopaedics, burn care, spinal cord injury, as well as cleft lip and palate cases. Their new hospital is at the Glen site, adjacent to the new Montreal Children’s Hospital.

While they share the Glen site’s logistical support (i.e. heating, power, materials and waste management, etc.), they remain a private facility and continue to provide highly-specialized healthcare to their patients.

In the event of a medical emergency that falls outside of the Shriners healthcare mandate, patients continue to be transferred to the Montreal Children’s Hospital for acute treatment.
