St. Joseph’s Healthcare Hamilton, West 5th Campus Redevelopment

St. Joseph’s Healthcare Hamilton, West 5th Campus provides specialized tertiary mental health services for residents living in the central south region of Ontario. The Centre has specialized mental health beds and also provides leading edge community services to thousands of outpatients.

A new, specialized mental health and outpatient medical services facility will be constructed at the Centre for Mountain Health Services.

The new facility will provide more inpatient beds and more services. It will have expanded outpatient clinics for psychiatry, diagnostic imaging and medical services, along with research and academic spaces. The McMaster University Department of Psychiatry will be located at the new centre. The new facility will be designed to support patient and family-centred care.

Services offered will be expanded and enhanced for patients with long-term needs and outpatient/community based programs. Services will include assessment, treatment and rehabilitation. There will be an increase in private and semi-private rooms, which will be designed to maximize patients’ access to the outdoors.
