As part of PCL Partnerships, Diamond Schmitt, in association with Cumulus Architects, will bring their architectural and design expertise to the redevelopment of Lakeridge Health’s Bowmanville Hospital.
More than doubling the size of the existing hospital, the redevelopment represents a significant investment in healthcare infrastructure for Bowmanville and the broader Durham Region. Expanded clinical capacity and new services will help support the needs of a growing community while supporting more people to receive care closer to home.
Planned improvements include private patient rooms, ambulatory care clinics, a haemodialysis centre, Level 3 critical care capacity and a rooftop helipad supporting rapid access to emergency services. Together, these additions will strengthen the hospital’s ability to respond to a wider range of patient needs, including more complex and critical care.
The project will also create opportunities for local businesses and workers, including direct employment and skilled unionized trades. Throughout construction, the hospital will remain open and continue providing care to patients and families.
“Our Bowmanville site is an important campus in the Lakeridge Health network of excellence, and the new hospital is part of our plan to respond to the significant needs of our growing communities. We have a responsibility to ensure health care grows with them. This redevelopment is about more than building a larger hospital. It’s about creating the space, services, and capacity to deliver exceptional care, closer to home, for generations to come,” says Cynthia Davis, President and CEO, Lakeridge Health.
