History Of Seven Oaks General Hospital
** History **
The Wellness Institute at Seven Oaks General Hospital is Canada's leading medical fitness facility. It opened in October 1996 with a mandate to promote health, prevent illness and disability, and restore wellness of the body, mind and spirit.
The Wellness Institute quickly developed a reputation for innovation and excellence with programs based on best practices research. It's a uniquely Canadian hybrid that operates as a self-sustaining enterprise, but also as a department of a public hospital. As a medical fitness facility, the Wellness Institute works to integrate our mission with patient care at Seven Oaks General Hospital. That's why we include a health risk assessment which gives new members details and guidance to reduce their risk of disease, plus provide integrated health and rehabilitation services and offer an onsite Rehabilitation and Sports Injury Clinic.
