Aiming for LEED-Silver certification, this new hospital complex will be the first in Canada to be designed and constructed as a fully digital facility. Technology will be used in every facet of the building to improve efficiency and patient care, allowing a total of 107,000 visits a year for a catchment area of 850,000 people.
