William Osler Health Centre
The new William Osler Health Care Centre facility is 1,300,000 square feet; has 608 acute care beds and 18 operating rooms; it will accommodate 90,000 emergency visits, 160,000 ambulatory care visits and 4,250 births each year.
William Osler Health Care Facility is a design build project that needed to be completed in 30 months from start to finish. The project was broken down into 4 major buildings. DT, IP, CUP and Parking structure. Each building was then treated as a separate project with a project manager and team to complete each section. A project manager was also assigned to oversee the mechanical consultants to ensure that engineering deliverables met the construction schedule. A project manager was then assigned to oversee the entire project and communicate between the design team and the area project managers. This infrastructure then met regularly through the duration of the project in the head office with all sub trades to ensure that schedule, quality and final turnover was on schedule.
In addition to paving the way for advanced health care, the hospital is the largest health care infrastructure project underway in Canada and is one of the first Greenfield hospitals to be built in this century.
