Tips Before You Go

What to Bring

Frequently Asked Questions

Does CHUM's emergency department treat children?
No. CHUM is an adult-only facility. Pediatric emergency cases should go to CHU Sainte-Justine, which is Montréal's dedicated children's university hospital.
How do I get to CHUM by metro?
CHUM is directly connected to the Champ-de-Mars metro station on the Orange Line via an underground pedestrian tunnel — you can walk from the metro platform into the hospital without stepping outside. The Berri-UQAM interchange station is also a short walk away.
What specialties are available if I am admitted through the CHUM emergency department?
As a world-class university hospital, CHUM has in-house specialists across more than 35 disciplines, including neuroscience, oncology, transplantation, cardiorespiratory medicine, musculoskeletal care, and more. Critically ill patients can be transferred to the on-site Intensive Care Unit.
Is CHUM a teaching hospital, and will students be involved in my care?
Yes. CHUM is affiliated with the Université de Montréal and trains nearly 50% of Quebec's physicians. Medical students, residents, and fellows may be involved in your care under physician supervision.
Are services at CHUM available in English?
CHUM's primary language of service is French, as it is affiliated with the French-language Université de Montréal. However, given Montréal's bilingual character, staff may be able to assist in English. Bring any important medical documents in both languages if possible.
Is parking available at CHUM and how much does it cost?
Yes. Underground parking for up to 850 vehicles is accessible from 1000 Rue Saint-Denis. Rates are $1.50/hour for the first 3 hours, then $3.00/hour. Visitors without a permit who stay more than 16 hours are charged a flat rate of $8.50. EV charging is available at level PD of the Saint-Denis parking structure.
