About the Toronto Central LHIN
The Toronto Central LHIN was designated by the Ministry of Health & Long-Term Care to plan, integrate and fund local health services. In fiscal 2008/09 we fund 177 health service providers that provide a variety of services, including a community care access centre, community health centres, community support services, hospitals, long-term care homes and mental health and addiction services.

The most important aspect of what we do involves working with you – with community residents and health service providers - to ensure that our health care plans for the Toronto Central LHIN area make the best use of available resources and meet the needs of the communities served. Our activities over the next three years are guided by the 2010-2013 Integrated Health Service Plan - 2 that outlines our priorities and the action steps we will take to ensure timely and equitable access to health care services in our communities.

The work of the LHIN began at the Ministry of Health and Long-Term Care with the 2005 Integration Priority Report.The report was the result of the ministry’s 14 Local Health Integration Network community workshops held across Ontario in November and December 2004. Approximately 4,000 people attended the workshops. Click here to see a message from Minister Matthews.
At each workshop, participants identified integration priorities important for their Local Health Integration Network and voted at the end of the day for the top 10 integration priorities in patient care and administrative/support services. Each Local Health Integration Network community then developed a report based on the top 10 priorities.
