The Ontario government is investing up to $95.5 million to build a new Collingwood General and Marine Hospital with expanded access to intensive care, emergency, diagnostic imaging and operating suites.
The facility will add up to 132 new beds with 98 total inpatient beds and an extra 34 beds to meet the community’s future needs.
This new funding follows a previous $15.5 million investment to support the early planning for the redevelopment of the hospital. Detailed planning for a brand-new replacement hospital on a new site will create a larger space to ensure the hospital can continue to meet the needs of the rapidly growing community.
“This historic investment in the community of Collingwood and South Georgian Bay will make a much-needed state-of-the-art hospital a reality that will transform health care for generations of families from the birth of a child to palliative care and everything in between,” said Simcoe—Grey MPP Brian Saunderson.
The ministry will work with Collingwood General and Marine Hospital to complete detailed planning and design for this project. A construction schedule commence once future planning is complete and the project is tendered and awarded.
