🚧 Important update 🚧

On Tuesday, August 18, our newly renovated Coxwell Avenue Entrance officially reopens as the main entrance to MGH. Welcome back to Coxwell Avenue! 🎉

Starting Wednesday, August 19, our Sammon Avenue Entrance and sidewalk will close for several weeks while the lay-by (drop-off zone) on Sammon Avenue is removed. Sammon Avenue will remain open to vehicle traffic throughout the closure. The area will revert to paid Green P parking spots once complete.

We encourage all staff, patients and visitors to use the Coxwell Entrance at 825 Coxwell Avenue as the primary entrance to the hospital. Our Stavro Emergency Department (ED) and K Wing entrances will also remain open.

We want to sincerely thank our patients, staff, volunteers and neighbours for their support over these years during this phase of our campus redevelopment.

Meet Joe, a Long Service Award recipient who is celebrating 50 years of service at MGH. 👏👏👏

"I started working here on a very short contract. They just needed someone to come help with a job for three or four days. I finished it and I thought, ‘that’s it.’ But then that next week I got a phone call to come back to work. I guess they liked me," Joe says.

"Over the years, I have worked in many different jobs. I started off in the laundry department. I have been a porter and sterilizer operator. I’ve worked in shipping and receiving and maintenance.

"I have met many people and made many friends here. I enjoy my job and I want to continue working for as long as I can.”

Thank you, Joe, for your 50 years of service. 🫶

Meet Susan, a Long Service Award recipient who is celebrating five years of service at MGH. 👏👏👏

“I came to MGH during the COVID-19 pandemic after hearing about a temporary screening role, Susan says.

"What started as a very uncertain time for many people turned into a meaningful opportunity for me and I’m grateful that it led to my current role as a Registration Clerk in Patient Access Services.

"What I enjoy most about my role is being one of the first points of contact for patients and families when they arrive at the hospital. I understand that people are often coming in during difficult moments, whether for their own health or for a loved one, and it’s important to me to make that first interaction as welcoming and supportive as possible.

"Even though patients may be going through challenging times, it’s rewarding to be able to ease their experience in small ways and offer kindness at the beginning of their visit. The gratitude from patients and knowing I’ve made a difference in their experience is what makes the job meaningful to me.”

Thank you, Susan, for your years of service. 🫶
