Centre hospitalier universitaire de Québec (CHUQ) is a network of three teaching hospitals affiliated with the medical school of Université Laval and several specialized institutions in Quebec City.

It was created by the merger in December 1995 of three large teaching hospitals:

  • Hôtel-Dieu de Québec
  • Hôpital Saint-François d’Assise
  • Centre hospitalier de l'Université Laval (CHUL)

    • It also includes:

  • Maison Paul-Triquet
  • Centre de l’ouïe et de la parole (Hearing and Speech Centre)
  • Centre de traitement dans la communauté (Community Treatment Centre)
  • Centre de pédopsychiatrie (Child and Youth Psychiatry Centre)
  • Foyer des vétérans (Veterans' Home)

    • The Centre hospitalier de l'Université Laval site offers extensive and specialized pediatric services.

    CHUQ is the largest institutional employer in Quebec City: its staff includes 672 specialist doctors, 237 family doctors, 2659 nursess, 96 pharmacists, 19 dentists, and 1492 other health care professionals and technicians.
