Past to Present
The Timmins and District Hospital (TADH) was incorporated in 1988 following the amalgamation of the two existing hospitals (St. Mary's General and Porcupine General) within the City of Timmins. In November 1993, the newly constructed TADH opened with the transfer of all patients and staff from the St. Mary's site. In March 1996, the chronic care/rehabilitation services of TADH, provided at the Porcupine General site, were moved to the new site of TADH. Since April 1996, all services provided by TADH have been available at one site.
