Five southwestern Ontario hospitals — Erie Shores HealthCare, Hôtel-Dieu Grace Healthcare, Windsor Regional Hospital, Sarnia’s Bluewater Health and Chatham-Kent Health Alliance — along with TransForm Shared Service Organization, which runs each of their IT and supply chain systems, were targeted in the attack.
