Construction to expand clinical spaces within the BRHC campus is entering the final stages of completion. Once completed the clinical spaces enhancement will feature:
- a new 16-bed Intensive Care Unit – main level.
- 30 additional medical beds on – the 2nd floor.
- 3rd floor – mechanical space.
- 4th floor – shell space for future expansion.
During these latter stages, flooring will be installed, painting completed and the final pieces of items being installed such as wall clocks, faucets, etc. will occur. Final exterior work, such as the courtyard, is also in progress. Once the building is complete, it will be turned over to PMH for staff orientation and training.
In 2024 the Brandon Regional Health Centre Foundation launched A Foundation for Care, a fundraising campaign to support the Brandon Regional Health Centre (BRHC) expansion project currently underway.
A Foundation for Care has the goal of raising $4 million to support the construction of the BRHC’s new Critical Care building, along with needed equipment.
“Prairie Mountain Health sincerely appreciates and acknowledges the dedication and commitment of the Brandon Regional Health Centre Foundation towards the new Critical Care building that will further strengthen and enhance patient care.” says Treena Slate, CEO of Prairie Mountain Health. “We are extremely fortunate to have such a strong, supportive health stakeholder like the BRHC Foundation, which has a well-established and highly regarded history of supporting projects that benefit Westman and the entire health region. On behalf of our Board of Directors, staff, physicians and volunteers, we sincerely thank you for this generous contribution.”
This expansion will provide healthcare staff with additional space and better equipment to meet the increasing demands of the healthcare system in Westman and will improve overall patient care. Any additional funds received over the campaign goal will be allocated to the areas of greatest need, as determined by the BRHC Foundation Board of Directors.
“The Brandon Regional Health Centre Foundation is honored to take part in a campaign that will directly benefit the citizens of Brandon and its surrounding areas.” says Joanne Campbell, Chair of the BRHC Foundation Board of Directors. “The new expansion project can only add to the already excellent care and services that are provided by the Brandon Regional Health Centre.”
The latest schedule will have the first patients arriving within the new areas during winter of 2026.
