Exciting changes are underway!
From now until 2018, BC Children’s Hospital and BC Women’s Hospital & Health Centre are undergoing extensive renovations and expansions that will result in a new Acute Care Centre on the Oak Street campus.
The provincial government approved funding in 2010 for the first phase of the $682 million BC Children’s and BC Women’s Redevelopment Project. The Relocation and Demolition Phase (Phase 1) of the Project is well underway.
