Stantec, a Canada-based design firm, has been appointed to offer planning, design, and conformance (PDC) services for the new South Niagara Hospital in Ontario, Canada.
Stantec said that its healthcare team earlier completed Niagara Health’s campus plan. The team is now offering the illustrative schematic design, as well as detailed output specifications for the full range of design and construction requirements.
The Canadian firm will assess conformance to design and construction requirements for the new hospital.
Sprawling over a 49.8-acre green-field site in Niagara Falls, the South Niagara Hospital will cover an area of 1.3 million ft².
The 470-bed South Niagara Hospital will feature centres of excellence specialising in stroke, complex care, geriatric and psychogeriatrics, and wellness in ageing.
The full acute care hospital will also include a 24/7 emergency department and services for critical care, surgical, mental health and addiction, kidney care and dialysis, and testing and research.
