ontario number of hospital beds
But many point to bed numbers here that are a fraction of whatâs found in other countries. Ontario has 2.4 hospital beds for every 1,000 residents, less than half the European average. Of 39 countries compared by the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development, only three had fewer hospital beds than Ontario: Mexico, India and Indonesia. That sort of finding should raise concerns in Ontario, said Dr. Andrew Keegan, a professor at Sydney Medical School who advises the Australian Â­government.
