Hospital wants your opinion on rebranding

Windsor Regional Hospital is starting a rebranding process.

The brand will represent all branches of the hospital, including the new Fancsy Family Hospital on County Road 42, the Metropolitan campus and the Ouellette campus.

“As we look ahead to a new hospital, the time is right to create a name and brand that reflects the work we are doing today, incorporates the future vision, and honours the legacy of our past,” said Karen Riddell, Hospital President and CEO. “This is a common step many large healthcare organizations have undertaken in conjunction with major redevelopment projects to ensure the corporate identity reflects their facilities, services and role in the community.”

As part of the rebranding process, the hospital asks residents to share their thoughts on a new name and logo. A survey has been launched and will accept responses until December 15, 2025.

“We are not just building a new hospital, we are building a new identity, and this is a chance for everyone to help shape that future together,” said Ian McLeod, Chair of the Windsor Regional Hospital Board of Directors.

The entire rebranding process is expected to take nine months.
