Ontario invests $15 million in redeveloping West Lincoln Memorial Hospital

The province is investing over $15 million to support the redevelopment of the new Hamilton Health Sciences – West Lincoln Memorial Hospital in Grimsby.

Once it is complete this new facility will replace the existing aged facility.

Hamilton Health Sciences says the new facility is expected to have the following:

• capacity for a total of 61 beds.
• a larger, 24/7 emergency department
• maternal and newborn services
• modern surgical suites
• outpatient care services including minor surgical procedures

Hamilton Health Sciences says the new hospital in Grimsby is part of Ontario’s investment of $20 billion over 10 years to build new and expanded hospital infrastructure.

The new funding is an addition to the provincial funding of over $2.2 million provided for the redevelopment planning of the hospital.

Project procurement is expected to begin in 2021.
