Short History
The institution was first founded in 1898 by a group of women in a small building located in downtown Montreal. Starting 1902, the Sisters of Providence began to support care. The hospital will be known under the name of Incurable Hospital and moved to a new building on Décarie Blvd. in Notre-Dame-de-Grâce (NDG).
It also offers two libraries: Norman Bethune and Library Albert-Prévost.
