When Compassion Adds Up

June 04, 2026

At Winchester District Memorial Hospital (WDMH), great care starts with our people. Every day, our teams bring our commitment to Compassionate Excellence to life combining clinical expertise with kindness, empathy, and patient-centred care. That approach is reflected in our latest patient satisfaction results, based on feedback from January 1st to March 31st, 2026.

So how did we do? Here’s how patients rated their overall satisfaction:

  • Day Surgery: 98%
  • Maternity: 95%
  • Medical/Surgical: 92%
  • Emergency: 88%

“Patient satisfaction reflects the entire hospital experience,” said Cholly Boland, CEO. “It comes down to each interaction; from the care patients receive to the support and kindness they experience along the way. It also includes the behind-the-scenes work that helps our teams deliver exceptional care.”

WDMH surveys are sent electronically to a sample of patients who provide their email address and consent at registration. Their feedback plays an important role in helping us learn, grow, and continue to provide safe, high-quality care.

We are grateful to our patients for taking the time to share their experiences, and to our teams whose care, skill, and dedication shape every patient journey.

If you would like to share feedback about your hospital experience, please contact Cholly Boland, Chief Executive Officer, at cboland@wdmh.on.ca or 613-774-2420 ext. 6350.
