This project represents a significant investment in healthcare infrastructure and will address the growing needs of the central Alberta community.
The project involves the construction of a new patient tower and extensive renovations to the existing Red Deer Regional Hospital Centre. The new tower will add 200 inpatient beds, increasing the facility's total capacity to 570 beds. It will feature six new operating rooms, cardiac catheterization labs, an endoscopy unit, an inpatient renal dialysis unit, and an expanded medical device reprocessing department. A new power plant building will also be constructed to support the hospital's updated infrastructure.
The later phases of the project will include renovations to the existing hospital, including an expanded emergency department, reconfigured loading docks, a renovated and expanded Intensive Care Unit (ICU), and upgrades to various other departments.
Clark Builders is honored to partner with DIALOG, a renowned architectural firm known for its innovative healthcare design solutions with whom we have collaborated with on several successful projects, such as the Gene Zwozdesky Centre at Norwood, Grande Prairie Regional Hospital and Glenora Park, to name a few.
Clark Builders will complete early site preparation for the expansion and renovation project and by early 2025 construction will begin on the new patient tower. The phased approach ensures that ongoing hospital services will experience minimal disruption, allowing the Red Deer Regional Hospital Centre to continue providing critical care to its patients throughout the construction period.
The comprehensive redevelopment will address current capacity issues, which have resulted in approximately 30% of patients in the Red Deer Regional Hospital Centre catchment area seeking specialized care in Edmonton or Calgary. Upon completion, the expanded and renovated facilities will better serve the needs of central Alberta, reducing the need for patient transfers and ensuring residents have access to high-quality healthcare closer to home.
“We are honoured to play a role in this vital development and to continue our tradition of delivering projects that make a lasting impact,” said Andrew Ross, Chief Executive Officer. “Our team is committed to delivering a facility that will not only meet the current requirements of the community but also support the region’s healthcare needs for decades to come.”
This project underscores Clark Builders’ purpose to enrich the lives of the people who work with them and the communities they help build. With over 50 years of construction expertise, strengthened by their partnership with Turner Construction Company a global leader in healthcare construction Clark Builders will deliver this project with the highest standards of quality, safety, and innovation.
