KGH is southeastern Ontario's leading centre for complex acute and specialty care. Through our facility in Kingston and 24 satellites throughout the region, we serve almost 500,000 residents; people who count on us to be there when they have high-risk pregnancies, cancer, very sick babies, heart attacks, strokes, life-threatening injuries and respiratory failure. They come to us when they require specialized care that is not available in their local community; when they need heart surgery, life support, dialysis, brain surgery, stem cells radiation and special imaging.  In addition to our regional role, we also serve as a community hospital, caring for less acute needs of the residents of Greater Kingston.
