The development will include a 1,000 bed general hospital and a 400 bed community hospital. A pedestrian bridge links the two hospitals. As the level of care a patient needs changes, they can be easily transferred from one to the other in one of the 200 easily movable “swing beds”. A Specialist Clinic is also planned.

As medical professionals in different buildings work together they reinforce the hospital’s holistic mission. The multi-disciplinary teams help patients and their families understand options, treatment plans and their current health. They consider the whole patient, including any mental, spiritual and emotional concerns.
