Casey House (Toronto, Ontario) : ウィキペディア英語版 | Casey House (Toronto)
Casey House is a hospital in Toronto, Canada that specializes in HIV/AIDS care and also provides home care and outreach programs. It is located in the downtown area, at the corner of Isabella and Huntley streets. When it was founded in 1988, it was the first specialized facility of its kind in Canada. It is named after Casey Frayne, whose mother June Callwood was one of the principal volunteers whose efforts brought about the founding of the hospital. 1 in 120 adult Torontonians is HIV-positive. ==History== When Casey House opened in 1988, its founders expected that a cure for the disease would be found so that it would not be needed into the 21st century. Instead, HIV became more treatable but not curable, so that more care is needed and more can be provided. The building has been transformed from a hospice to a hospital.〔
