“This new hospital complex meets the healthcare needs of a province that continues to gain population.”
The hospital will be a vast building, featuring 815 rooms, an emergency area with 31 medical consultation rooms, eight nursing rooms, 61 observation beds, 80 ICU beds, and a surgical block with 48 operating rooms.
