Red Deer Regional Hospital Centre
Work is on schedule for the Red Deer Regional Hospital Centre redevelopment. This project is now in design phase.
There are three major construction phases of the redevelopment, which will be run as two separate projects:
- Project 1: construction of a new patient tower, and an expansion and renovation of the existing hospital’s main building.
- Project 2: construction of an ambulatory care building using a public-private partnership (P3) delivery model.
