To ensure safe, high-quality care, MAHC will temporarily move labour and delivery services to Huntsville District Memorial Hospital (HDMH) from South Muskoka Memorial Hospital (SMMH), starting March 11, 2025. This decision addresses urgent challenges and will be reassessed at six and nine months, with a goal to restore services at South Muskoka Memorial Hospital (SMMH) as soon as possible.
Patients and visitors are to wear a mask while receiving care, and in high-risk areas such as all inpatient units, Emergency Department, waiting areas and outpatient services. MAHC team members are wearing masks when interacting directly with patients. Please put on a mask from the supply provided and wear it properly covering your nose and mouth.

Since my first COVID-19 blog on March 25, I’m pleased to share another update with our communities from Muskoka Algonquin Healthcare. In the past week and a half, our emergency planning has continued to evolve to a greater level of preparedness for an influx of patients from COVID-19.
This has been a difficult, unprecedented and extraordinary time for everyone. I would like to express my confidence in all members of the Muskoka Algonquin Healthcare (MAHC) team and share my utmost gratitude to all of our staff and physicians for their dedication to hospital care for our communities. We assure our communities that both hospital sites have measures in place to protect the health of our patients, staff and physicians.
