About Casey House
Casey House is unlike any other hospital. A specialty hospital in Toronto, we provide ground-breaking care to people living with and at risk of HIV. We offer inpatient, and outpatient services that meet clients where they are in their individual journeys of health and wellness, and actively dismantle barriers to care and safe living.
As a hospital that strives to create an inclusive environment where everyone feels safe, we’re also tackling the deeply ingrained stigma associated with HIV. With bold ideas and brave partners, we make the humanity of each client the heart of everything we do. Together, we can #smashstigma.
