1. Introduction<br />

Outst<strong>and</strong>ing patient care, research <strong>and</strong><br />

lifelong learning made <strong>2014</strong>/<strong>15</strong><br />

memorable <strong>and</strong> successful for<br />

<strong>Sunnybrook</strong> <strong>and</strong> for the 1.2 million<br />

patients <strong>and</strong> families the Hospital cared<br />

for when it matters most. A significant<br />

highlight from the last year was the<br />

development of Strategic Plan 20<strong>15</strong> –<br />

2018. The plan points <strong>Sunnybrook</strong><br />

toward the future by providing a road map<br />

for how the organization will move forward<br />

its mission <strong>and</strong> vision, while also balancing<br />

the Hospital’s dual role as a teaching <strong>and</strong><br />

research hospital with a defined<br />

community to serve.<br />

<strong>Sunnybrook</strong> outweighs the Hospital’s<br />

physical capacity. Strategic Plan 20<strong>15</strong> -<br />

2018 aims to reduce <strong>Sunnybrook</strong>’s<br />

inpatient occupancy levels, which often<br />

exceed 100 per cent, to move toward a<br />

more manageable 95 per cent.<br />

Preparation <strong>and</strong> readiness were two<br />

dominant themes during <strong>2014</strong>/<strong>15</strong>.<br />

<strong>Sunnybrook</strong> responded quickly to ensure<br />

a team of staff were ready should a<br />

patient present as a suspected Ebola<br />

case. Staff also worked diligently to<br />
