After months of intense preparation, Trillium Health Partners - Mississauga Hospital, Credit Valley Hospital and Queensway Health Centre - is now on the front line in the fight against the virus.

In ordinary times, we take comfort knowing THP is there to serve the usual health needs of our community. Now, we need to step up for our hospital and ensure it has the tools and equipment needed to respond to the outbreak.

THP is the largest community academic hospital in the province, looking after a huge population of 2.2 million people. With between 30 to 70 percent of Canadians expected to get the virus, according to Canada’s Minister of Health, THP will see a growing number of patients, especially in our intensive care units.
