The Museum of Health Care preserves material culture and enhances public understanding of the history of health and health care in Canada.
Established in 1991, the Canadian Museum of Health Care is an independent, registered charity committed to preserving and sharing the rich history of health and medicine in Canada. Today, it houses the country’s largest collection of medical artifacts, tracing the evolution of health care from the 1750s to the present day. Located in the historic Ann Baillie Building — a 1904 National Historic Site on the grounds of Kingston General Hospital — the museum invites visitors to explore how people have understood and treated disease, managed pain, and provided healing through time.
