This past year is one of accomplishment and challenge at University Health Network, and this Year
in Review provides a sampling of 2012-2013. We invite you to read this complete report, in which you
will find our audited financial statement, photos and videos from the past year, highlights from each
program and stories of courage from across the organization.
Courage Lives Here, UHN’s new tagline, is the theme of this year’s report. Throughout the year, we
have asked people to tell us their courageous stories. It is gratifying to read about UHN through the
eyes of patients, staff, students, physicians, researchers and volunteers. We make a difference in people’s
lives and that comes through in many ways.
At UHN, the support and encouragement patients and staff receive can be life-changing — and
sometimes an individual’s willingness to tell their story reaches far beyond the walls of this hospital.
This past year, we saw Hélène Campbell turn her experience with lung transplantation into
a campaign for organ donor registration. We saw news reporter Mark McAllister and UHN patient
Whitney Goulstone join forces to raise awareness about epilepsy and its treatment. We also saw
anorexia patient Kim Rollins step forward to talk about how a research study using Deep Brain
Stimulation has given her new hope.
We are honoured to work with the people of UHN in the service of our patients.
