The BCHS Foundation is excited that the renovation project to improve the Emergency Department (ED) at the Brantford General Hospital (BGH) began in October 2023.
As the BCHS Foundation office is located adjacent to the ED construction area please note the following impact to our operations:
- We kindly ask that if you wish to visit the Foundation office to please call in advance to make an appointment at at 519-755-5510
- Non-emergent patients and visitors to the BGH must utilize the D Wing entrance. The A Wing entrance is for emergency and dialysis patients, labouring and pregnant women and, visitors/patients with accessibility needs only
- The A-wing roundabout is for Emergency and Dialysis drop-off only. Please remember that there is no parking in the roundabout.
- The parking garage and Lot F (near E-wing) is reserved for patient and visitor parking
- A portion of Terrace Hill Street will be temporarily closed from St. Paul Avenue to Elizabeth Street beginning on October 16, 2023. While the renovation project is anticipated to take 3.5 years, the road closure will be in effect for approximately one year.
Although physical work has begun on the Emergency Department Renovation Improvement Project, the need for donor dollars still remains. Funds must be raised for the purchase of all medical equipment, furnishings and fixtures for the renovated Emergency Department – these are not covered or cost shared by the Ministry of Health.
You can help equip the future emergency department by making a donation today!
