Stantec project principal George Bitsakakis said: “In designing Queensway Health Centre, our team is embracing THP’s values of Compassion, Excellence, and Courage to create a dynamic, welcoming, and sustainable facility for the community.
“We believe that facility design plays a vital role in optimizing patient care and clinical services while creating positive spaces for patients, staff, and the neighboring community. We’re excited to continue our work with THP to support the health and well-being of the community.”
Additionally, Stantec will provide renovations to the existing hospital as part of the re-development at Queensway. It will create a central utility plant that will provide services to the new tower.
The company has also agreed to offer planning, design, and conformance services to THP’s new Mississauga Hospital project.
Upon completion, the new project is expected to create additional bed capacity as well as modernise the delivery of healthcare. In May this year, Stantec secured a contract to provide design services for three healthcare projects in Canada.
