While the 1950s infrastructure served the community for decades, the new patient tower expands inpatient rooms by almost 50% and increasing bathroom footprints by 70%. The scope and complexity of this project left no part of the site untouched. The expansion of Saint Francis Hospital addeed a seven-story patient tower with 158 inpatient beds including a 30-bed intensive care unit and 32-bed progressive care unit. As well, it required a temporary main entrance to allow for the demolition of the existing main entrance to build a new, lower-grade entrance.
