About Royal Columbian Hospital Foundation
From the beginning, Royal Columbian Hospital in New Westminster has stood at the heart of health care in British Columbia. Created by visionary pioneers to provide compassionate care to those building a new province, we have participated in the social and economic changes of British Columbia since 1862. Today, we are one of the province’s busiest hospitals, serving a population of close to two million people. We are a regional referral hospital for cardiac, trauma, neurosciences, high-risk maternity and neonatal intensive care. No other hospital in the province provides all of these services, at this level of care, on one site. We provide the highest level of care to the most critically ill and injured from throughout the province.
The hospital is within the Fraser Health region, one of the fastest growing health regions in Canada. Its population is expected to grow to 2.24 million people by 2030.
To meet this increase in demand, Royal Columbian Hospital is undergoing one of the most ambitious hospital redevelopments in Canadian history. This redevelopment goes beyond rebuilding a hospital. It is transformational. This multi-year, multi-phase $1.49 billion redevelopment will revolutionize the way we deliver care to our patients by creating a world-class, state-of-the-art hospital that provides uncompromising care.
The cornerstone of the project – a new Acute Care Tower – will elevate lifesaving care that serves one third of our province’s population in the largest and fastest growing health region in BC.
At approximately 55,000 square metres, the Acute Care Tower is the ‘crown jewel’ of our redevelopment. Scheduled for completion in 2025, the Acute Care Tower will include an interventional super floor with operating rooms and interventional radiology and cardiology suites, a new Emergency Department with its own imaging unit, new larger maternity, pediatric, and neonatal intensive care units, and multiple floors for acute and critical care patients.
With almost double the current footprint, redevelopment will significantly increase the current capacity of RCH by over approximately 50% to 675 beds and will provide highly sophisticated critical care technologies and treatments. Coupled with the Mental Health and Substance Use Wellness Centre that opened in the summer of 2020 as part of the first phase of redevelopment, the Acute Care Tower will allow our physicians and health care team to treat 11,300 more patients each year.
Our vision is to create a world-class hospital: a state-of-the art facility that provides uncompromising care and remarkable patient experiences. With a larger footprint and the introduction of cutting-edge technology, we will continue to respond to the needs of patients in their most urgent, life-altering moments.
