Canmore Hospital Emergency Department Renovation Phase 1
Canmore, AlbertaOver the years, Canmore has seen significant growth in both population and tourism. Many residents and visitors engage in outdoor activities such as skiing and mountain biking, which, unfortunately, has led to a rise in the number of injuries. To accommodate this increase in demand, a comprehensive renovation of the Emergency Department at Canmore General Hospital has become necessary. The renovation will expand patient capacity by adding four additional rapid assessment spaces, a larger waiting area, and barrier-free washrooms. The new triage and registration area will also be redesigned for improved accessibility and a more welcoming experience for patients.

The design also incorporates a new nursing station, which will enhance workflow efficiency and provide improved sightlines to patients, facilitating better communication among care staff. Additionally, a dedicated treatment room will be included to support patients experiencing mental health crises. The updated interior design aims to significantly improve the overall experience for both patients and staff within the Emergency Department. Given that the project is taking place within an active, operational facility, construction will be executed in three distinct phases to minimize disruption.
