St. Joseph’s Health Centre Guelph (SJHCG) is a leader in providing outstanding healthcare and support to clients (residents, patients, participants), families, and the broader community we serve. Our programs and services support people of all ages who need rehabilitation, complex medical, or long term care. We also provide community outreach programs that help people, including those living with dementia or frailty, to manage their conditions while staying active in the community.

Inspired by the Sisters of St. Joseph, we use a holistic care philosophy to support each person’s mind, body, and spirit throughout their healthcare journey. Our dedicated and highly skilled team of healthcare professionals, staff, and volunteers focus on the unique needs of each person while maintaining and respecting each individual’s privacy, choice, dignity, and independence.

SJHCG is set on more than 44 park-like acres in northwest Guelph. Our beautiful 200,000 square foot, 346 bed community provides a safe, welcoming, and home-like atmosphere. With plenty of green space and fully accessible gardens, our health centre is a source of pride for staff, clients, and our community. Everyone is encouraged to respect our smoke-free policy.

In our most recent accreditation survey, SJHCG received the highest honour possible for quality and safety standards – Accredited with Exemplary Standing. We also received the 2016 Service Award for Geriatric Excellence for providing high quality, best practice care and demonstrating exceptional dedication, leadership, and innovation.
