The Government of Saskatchewan has issued a Request for Qualifications (RFQ) to identify qualified firms to design and construct the new Weyburn General Hospital and lead the demolition of the existing hospital.
"We are pleased to be taking the next step toward an integrated model of care, bringing acute care and mental health services together," Rural and Remote Health Minister Everett Hindley said. "This new facility will be more efficient and will ultimately provide better patient care for residents of Weyburn and area."
The new 35-bed hospital will be built on a greenfield site located on the north side of 5th Avenue North between Hamilton Street and 5th Street at 275 - 5th Avenue North West. When complete, it will include 25 acute care beds and 10 in-patient mental health beds from Tatagwa View.
