Hôtel-Dieu has patients again
It’s lucky the Hôtel-Dieu wasn’t turned into condos, because it’s back in service, accepting the more stable COVID-19 patients from the CHUM and, in a separate unit, noninfected people from CHSLDs.

That is rather fortunate. Nice to see the oldest hospital in North America (second oldest if you count Mexico as North America) back in business for one last hurrah

It wasn’t too long ago we were discussing the old Northern Electric building on Lucien L’allier, and its interesting pedigree that included being reused as an auxiliary hospital during the city’s 1909 typhoid outbreak. History does tend to repeat.
