Evolving Trends Shaping Canada's Healthcare Real Estate

Canada's healthcare system continues to experience significant pressure to adapt driven by a need to improve timely access to quality care for all Canadians. As healthcare providers and government leaders contemplate new and innovative healthcare delivery models, we’re seeing an increased focus on alternative healthcare infrastructure that can facilitate and enhance convenient, community-based care. 

The rise of community-based healthcare is gaining momentum as a response to changing patient needs, Canada’s rapidly aging population, and a healthcare system that is still rebounding from the challenges of the COVID-19 pandemic. This approach emphasizes care delivery closer to where people live, in local clinics, wellness centres, and specialized outpatient facilities like ambulatory surgical centres, rather than relying primarily on hospital-based care. 

Healthcare real estate in Canada must innovate and adapt in step with these shifts in healthcare delivery models to establish the infrastructure necessary to support a strong, sustainable healthcare system.
