We’ve partnered with Haldimand War Memorial Hospital to support a new, larger and more technologically advanced Emergency Department right here in our community. This redevelopment will offer residents of our County and surrounding areas access to a state-of-the-art Emergency Department with an increased diagnostic and treatment area designed with confidentiality and infection control in mind.
New Department will have more than double the space of the current department and twelve patient treatment areas, compared to the current seven. Also, there will be enhanced sight lines to treatment areas from the nurse’s station, an enclosed ambulance bay, with a decontamination room off the bay, an isolation and resuscitation room. There will be five public washrooms, compared to the current one, and a quiet room for nurses and physicians to counsel family members or deliver news in privacy. On the second floor, there will be a hospital lab and education centre.
The current department will be fully functional during construction. Once the new ED is in use, the current department will be transformed into an “Outpatient Village,” including wide variety of public and specialist services. At this time, the hospital has received approval from the Ministry of Health and Long-Term Care and the tender process for the construction project is underway. The hospital is expecting to put a shovel in the ground this year.
Many think an Emergency Department is built with concrete, glass and steel and, although this is true, this project can only be completed with the compassionate and generous spirit of the community. Your Foundation has committed $1.5 million to the Emergency Department project. If 6,250 people donate $20/month for one year, we can reach our $1.5 million goal.
It is our mission to ensure that Haldimand War Memorial Hospital remains the core of our healthy community. Please take a moment to consider your role in our mission, ensuring that this essential and community defining facility becomes a reality, right here in Haldimand County.
