Our Strategic Plan
The KDH vision is a hospital that is much more than a place for treating illness: it is a vital and compassionate part of a larger, integrated health system, supporting the mental, physical and social health and wellness of the people and communities we serve.
To achieve our vision, KDH has a clear and focused Strategic Plan, which is centred on five strategic directions, with four key priorities supporting each strategic direction.
Our Strategic Directions are –
- Person-Centered Care
- Service Excellence and Innovation
- Team KDH
- Strong and Vital Partnerships
- Sustainability and Growth
Our current Strategic Plan, Your Hospital, Your Community: Growing Together, guides our work from 2022 through 2026. The Plan was developed in collaboration with more than 800 stakeholders: patients, staff, partners, and neighbours.
We will be releasing a report halfway through the term of the Plan to share our progress to that point, and then a final report at the end of the term.

"After three months of convalescent care at KDH, my wife and I wanted to take a moment to express our sincere gratitude and appreciation for all the care staff who attended to me during my stay. From the moment I arrived at the unit, I was struck by the welcoming and compassionate atmosphere. I would like to extend a special thank you to every member of the care staff for your helpfulness and kindness. You all played an important role in aiding my recovery, not just physically but also emotionally. What sets this convalescent unit apart is the genuine care and concern shown towards residents. I never once felt like just a bed number but rather an individual who was valued and respected. The encouragement given to residents to improve their health and engage in social activities also greatly enriched my experience. I made new friends and created lasting memories. I cannot thank you enough for your unwavering support. I will always remember my time there with fondness, thanks to the wonderful care staff who made it a home away from home. Thank you for everything."
