Misericordia Terrace

About Us

The Misericordia Sisters began their service here in Winnipeg in 1898. The Sisters played a strong role in the community, taking care of young single mothers and their babies. Their commitment was to serve, a true reflection of their motto: Compassion of the heart for those in need.

 

The need for their caring service quickly grew. Their early days foreshadowed the development of expanded service that would bring the Sisters’ health-care provision to a new and broader base. Their facility, owned and operated by the Sisters, eventually expanded and became known as the Misericordia General Hospital.

 

While our role has continued to change over the years, we remain guided by the tradition of the Misericordia Sisters. With Misericordia Terrace, we are proud to offer affordable, non-profit housing within Misericordia Health Centre’s campus of long-term care.

 

Outside, we are nestled in the charming West Broadway neighbourhood surrounded by parks and green spaces in The Gates, Wolseley and River Heights. Inside, we are a unique community of friends sharing an expansive dining area, cozy library and rooftop terrace.
