Children's Hospital of Eastern Ontario

Who we are

Dedicated to the best life for every child and youth, CHEO is a global leader in pediatric health care and research.

Redefining hospital

We are redefining what it means to be a hospital.

Exceptional and integrated care is what families, children and youth deserve. We are committed to partnering with them and the community to provide this care — where, when and how it’s needed.

CHEO is:

• a specialized acute-care hospital
• a school and preschool
• an autism service provider
• a child and youth mental health agency
• a children’s treatment centre
• a research institute
• a rehabilitation service
• a pediatric palliative care hospice
• a school health provider
• a service coordinator with community providers
• a  genetics program
• a training and education centre for health professionals

Whether a child you love – or you yourself as an adolescent – face illness, developmental issues or other health challenges, we’re here for you. Our goal is to deploy all of these services to help you and your family.

CHEO is a founding member of Kids Health Alliance, a network of partners working to create a high quality, standardized and coordinated approach to pediatric health care in Ontario that is centred around children, youth and their families.

Beyond Ottawa

CHEO has satellite services located throughout Eastern Ontario.

We partner with organizations in Nunavut, Northern Ontario and western Quebec, as well as throughout Eastern Ontario.
