From its beginnings the hospital was progressive in the field of acute care health services particularly in obstetrics, pediatrics and teaching. The 12-storey facility included a nursing school and a residence for 200 nurses and 100 employees.<\/p>\n<p>On 8 January 1963, two lay persons were joined the board of directors in conformity with the Provincial Regulations for hospitals; the appointment of Dr. Edmond Synott as Director General in 1965 constituted another milestone. The congregation left the hospital\u2019s administration in 1967 but several Sisters continued working for many more years on an individual basis. In 1995 the administrative building was renamed the Rachel-Tourigny Pavilion as a tribute to one of the hospitals founders.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_1043\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1043\" style=\"width: 900px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-1043\" src=\"https:\/\/sgm.qc.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/10-250x200.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"900\" height=\"720\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-1043\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">ASGM, L120, H\u00f4pital Maisonneuve, Sr Poirier, 1953<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Recovery room<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_1045\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1045\" style=\"width: 900px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-1045\" src=\"https:\/\/sgm.qc.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/11-250x229.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"900\" height=\"824\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-1045\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">ASGM, L120, H\u00f4pital Maisonneuve, Salle de r\u00e9veil avec Sr Annette Paquette, 1954<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Aerial view of the building<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_1047\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1047\" style=\"width: 900px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-1047\" src=\"https:\/\/sgm.qc.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/12-250x204.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"900\" height=\"733\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-1047\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">ASGM,L120,Y2B, H\u00f4pital Maisonneuve, vue a\u00e9rienne, 1955<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"In 1949 the Grey Nuns accepted a proposal from the Provincial Health Minister to create a 500-bed hospital in Montreal\u2019s east-end and the following year the Maisonneuve Hospital Corporation was [&hellip;]","protected":false},"author":5,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_exactmetrics_skip_tracking":false,"_exactmetrics_sitenote_active":false,"_exactmetrics_sitenote_note":"","_exactmetrics_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[15],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1081","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/sgm.qc.ca\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1081","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/sgm.qc.ca\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/sgm.qc.ca\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sgm.qc.ca\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/5"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sgm.qc.ca\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1081"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/sgm.qc.ca\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1081\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/sgm.qc.ca\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1081"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sgm.qc.ca\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1081"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sgm.qc.ca\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1081"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
