Baycrest is the global leader in developing and providing
innovations in aging and brain health. Located on a
23-acre campus in north Toronto, it attracts leading
healthcare professionals and scientists who are keen
to work in a unique and collaborative environment that
encompasses innovative care, education and research in
brain health and aging.
The exemplary accomplishments and high standards at
Baycrest have been recognized by Accreditation Canada
and external review teams that have assessed the
impact of the Rotman Research Institute (RRI) on brain
and cognitive neurosciences.
Our team provides client-focused care at a complex
continuing care hospital, long-term care home, assisted
living residence, clinics and adult day programs, as well
as through programs that educate and train future staff
and professionals in geriatric care.
The RRI is making discoveries that are shaping
neuroscience and "driving thought, concepts and
research globally," according to the 2015 expert review
team. "A differentiating and critical attribute of the RRI
is the highly collaborative and collegial environment for
faculty and trainees. The high degree of interaction and
engagement between groups has resulted in important
and exciting new research projects and programs."
Baycrest spearheaded the creation of the Canadian
Centre for Aging and Brain Health Innovation (CC-ABHI),
a unique collaboration of health care, science, industry,
not-for-profit and government partners whose aim is to
help older adults age safely in the setting of their choice
for as long as possible.
