Muskoka Algonquin Healthcare’s (MAHC) - Armour's Commitment to the New Hospital Builds

Muskoka Algonquin Healthcare’s (MAHC) vision to reimagine local hospital care with two new hospitals in Muskoka is moving closer to reality. In April 2022, the Ford government announced support for MAHC to move ahead with the next stage of planning for two new hospitals: a new hospital on the existing land in Huntsville, and a new hospital at a new location in Bracebridge.  Watch the announcement on YouTube. 

Between the fall of 2022 and the end of 2023, more detailed program and service planning to meet our community’s future needs will occur to ensure our plans meet the growing health care needs of patients and families in Muskoka and East Parry Sound. With grant money provided by the Province of Ontario for the planning work (not new construction), MAHC is completing the next stage of the Ministry of Health’s capital planning process – this stage is known as Stage 1.3. The goal is to submit what is known as the Functional Program in early 2024.
