the School of Rehabilitation Sciences

The School was created in 1996 and brings together three professional programs: Audiology/Speech Language Pathology, Occupational Therapy and Physiotherapy. The mission of the School is to train bilingual healthcare professionals to meet the needs of Ontario's francophone population and of francophone communities in the rest of Canada, within the country's bilingual and multicultural context. In addition to providing outstanding professionnal education, we also strive to position ourselves as leaders of rehabilitation research.

    In order to comply with the Ontarian with disability act , the accessibility committee of the Ottawa Hospital,  requested the expertise of occupational therapy students. Under the supervision of Dr. Paulette Guitard, two groups of students were able to complete an on-site assessment of the  physical accessibility  of the General Campus as well as provide their recommendations to the accessibility committee as part of their masters’ project. After reading their recommendations, the Hospital was able to secure 50 000$ to implement their recommendations instead of the 15 000$  originally reserved to comply to the ODA.  This profitable collaboration for everyone, will be repeated on the other Ottawa Hospital sites.
