Museum of Health Care

The mandate of the Museum of Health Care at Kingston is to preserve material culture and enhance understanding of the history of health and health care in Canada. In order to do this, the Museum acquires, conserves, researches, displays and interprets artefacts that help tell these stories. The Museum also serves as a primary resource for scholarly work on the history of health care. The Museum of Health Care at Kingston is the only mission-specific museum of health care in Canada.
