Lachine Hospital (French: Hôpital de Lachine) is a public hospital in Montreal, Quebec, Canada. It is located at 650 16th Avenue in the borough of Lachine (at the corner of Saint Antoine Street). It is the only French-language hospital on the western portion of the Island of Montreal.

History

Established in 1935 as the Hôpital St-Joseph, it was administered by the Sisters of Providence. In 1973, its name was changed to Centre hospitalier de Lachine and its management was transferred to the Government of Quebec.

The Lachine Hospital and its long-term nursing home (Camille-Lefebvre Pavillon) were integrated into the McGill University Health Centre since 2008 to 2014.
