St. Mary’s Hospital

Sechelt, British Columbia

 After presenting a preliminary assessment of the proposed master plan at the project short list interview, the client agreed that the Master Plan of Record was not optimal and that a more appropriate set of alternatives should be mutually explored. Ultimately greater value-for-money was delivered. The project scope includes a building expansion and extensive renovation to the existing hospital as well as the construction of an “Energy Centre” for physical plant services. The redevelopment includes plans for additional beds with an increase in the number of private rooms; new Special Care Unit for high acuity patients; improved infection control and isolation capacity; new emergency department with fast-track capacity; expansion to Ambulatory Care, Surgical Day Care; and a new diagnostic imaging department.

The project is designed to be carbon neutral and achieve a LEED Gold rating.
