At-A-Glance

The Future of Healthcare is Inclusive.

UHN has a strategic advantage of expanding from a focus on default patients and employees to include those in the margins and to mirror its patients and the communities in which it operates and serves.

One of the key measure of UHN’s effectiveness and success is embedding inclusion, diversity, equity, accessibility and antiracism (IDEAA) in its three major areas of operation – research, care, and education. 

By proactively delivering health equity across all its operations, UHN will close the gap with respect to disparities and disadvantages in access, diagnosis, treatment and healthcare, UHN will be regarded as a best-in-class inclusive health care provider and will fuel growth through patient expansion.
