The Hotel Dieu Shaver Health and Rehabilitation Centre is a specialty healthcare centre in the south-end of St. Catharines, Ontario. Its mandate is to provide complex continuing care and rehabilitation services to patients in the city and Niagara Region. The centre is a result of hospital restructuring in St. Catharines which saw the ''Hotel Dieu Health Sciences Hospital'' (an acute care hospital in the city's downtown) assume governance and management of the ''Shaver Hospital'' and ''Niagara Rehab Centre'', which were formerly managed under the Niagara Health System (NHS). The NHS assumed responsibility of the facility once occupied by the Hotel Dieu, which is now known as the Ontario Street Site of the Niagara Health System. ==History== Members of the Congregation of the Religious Hospitallers of St. Joseph arrived in St. Catharines, Ontario in 1945 to begin planning for a Hotel Dieu Hospital (see Hôtel-Dieu de Montréal). After three years of planning, the original hospital was opened as a small maternity hospital on Ontario Street, in a large Victorian building known as the Woodruff Mansion. Construction of a brand new Hotel Dieu Hospital began in 1950 and opened as a 125-bed healthcare facility on September 10, 1953. A new wing was later added in 1962, creating an additional of space for the growing hospital. In 1975, Niagara Region's first and only dialysis unit opened at Hotel Dieu, leading to the opening of a regional diabetes centre in 1987, and the L.B. Herzog Dialysis Centre in 1994. On August 8, 2005, Hotel Dieu assumed governance and management of Shaver Hospital and Niagara Rehab Centre in the city's south-end. The Hotel Dieu hospital is taken over by the Niagara Health System and opens later that year as the Ontario Street Site of the NHS, providing minor acute care. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Hotel Dieu Shaver Health and Rehabilitation Centre」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
