Who we are
The Calgary Health Region is one of the largest fully-integrated, publicly-funded healthcare systems in Canada. Serving a population of over 1.2 million people with an annual operating budget of $2.8 billion, the region is home to some of the fastest growing communities in the country.
The integration of health care services means that all services, such as hospital care, community health and mental health, are coordinated under one continuous system, which ensures that patients receive the right care at the right time in the right place.
The Calgary Health Region serves the city of Calgary as well as a constellation of smaller communities. These include the world famous resort communities of Banff, Canmore and Lake Louise, as well as numerous rural communities stretching from the mountains to the prairies – a total area the size of Switzerland.
Other services provided by the Region include public health, and long-term health services.
The Calgary Health Region is committed to excellence in providing an accessible, accountable, integrated, community-based health system, which promotes shared responsibility for improved health
