Rockyview General Hospital is Calgary’s second largest hospital site. Located in the city’s Southwest, it provides acute, outpatient, critical care, surgical, medical, neonatal intensive care, mental health, seniors, women’s and emergency health services. The facility is home to two units dedicated to acute care geriatrics and is the major urology and ophthalmology referral center with a public eye clinic that provides services to patients across southern Alberta and parts of British Columbia.
A new program, Complex Care Hub – Hospital at Home (CCH), opened in February 2018. The program admits patients directly from the Emergency Department to the care of the CCH team. Although patients are considered in the care of the hospital, they remain at home and receive diagnostic and treatment support from the CCH team and Community Paramedics.
