The Muskoka Algonquin Healthcare Board of Directors will receive the recommendation from the Capital Plan Development Task Force for the preferred building options for the Two Acute Sites at its next monthly meeting.
The Capital Plan Development Task Force reconvened on September 12 for its final meeting to complete its evaluation of the five building design options contemplated for the Two Acute Sites service delivery model. The options considered for both sites include: renovation and expansion, or a complete new build. For the South Muskoka site, a further approach to build a new hospital on a different piece of land was also considered.
The Capital Plan Development Task Force would like to thank all those who attended the March community information sessions and/or took the time to respond to a feedback survey about the building design options. A total of 140 responses were received.
Muskoka Algonquin Healthcare’s Capital Plan Development Task Force continues to work through Stage 1 of the Ministry of Health and Long-Term Care capital planning process with a focus on having two hospitals for Muskoka and area in the future. That’s a hospital in Bracebridge and a hospital in Huntsville with 24-7 emergency departments, surgical services, and inpatient care including obstetrics and intensive care supported by core diagnostic services at each site.
The Task Force received an update on the community engagement plan for presenting the building design options to the public. Task Force members provided feedback on the community presentation that was given at each of the six information sessions the week of March 4-8.
