The new facility marks the beginning of a new Western Memorial Regional Hospital campus and will include 120 long-term care beds, as well as 15 palliative care beds and 10 rehabilitative care beds.

The estimated investment for the project will range between CAD120 million (US$140 million) and CAD140 million (US$163 million).

Works Minister Al Hawkins said in a previous release: 

“Partnering with private industry allows for the delivery of priority infrastructure projects and services in a cost-effective manner while resident care will continue to be provided by public sector employees.”
