In 1918, our community imagined the beginnings of a place that could help
older adults, and from imagination sprung reality.
For more than 100 years, the Baycrest we have come to know - the one
relied upon by thousands of patients, residents, clients and families
daily - has been built up by our dedicated staff, clinicians, volunteers and
community of supporters to become what we are today: a world leader in
the geriatric health and residential care sector and the field of aging and
brain health. Together, we have created a place that is renowned for our
work in care, research, education and innovation.
For a long time, our value as a campus that contains a hospital, a long-
term care home and a leading research institute has remained primarily
local and provincial in nature. As we've grown, the recognized value of
our research and innovative care practices for the seniors' population has
quietly – and steadily - increased both nationally and internationally.
Now, it is time for Baycrest to help even more people – to move our
expertise beyond a place or location. It is time to build and expand upon
what has come before and share it more broadly with those in need across
Canada and worldwide.
