Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Infobox person Elizabeth McMaster (December 27, 1847 – March 3, 1903) was a Canadian humanitarian and head of the committee which founded the Hospital for Sick Children in Toronto.[1]

In her forties and after her husband's death in 1888, she trained to become a nurse in Chicago[1] at Illinois Training School for Nurses, which merged in 1926 into the University of Chicago's School of Nursing and ceased to exist in 1929.[2][3] Graduating in 1891 McMaster left Chicago to work at the Hospital of the Good Samaritan in Los Angeles and Children's Home, an orphanage in Schenectady, New York.[3] She later returned to Chicago, where she died in 1903.

The Great Ormond Street Hospital was the influence for her to establish the Hospital for Sick Children.
