Peace Arch Hospital Foundation Projects: Recently Completed Hospital Projects

Recently Completed Hospital Projects

Our mission is to raise funds, advocate, and support initiatives to enhance the hospital campus and the health and wellness of our community. Your donations have a direct impact on the quality of care Peace Arch Hospital can provide. Whether it's a brand new ER, critically-needed medical equipment, or a community program to keep people fit and OUT of the hospital, every dollar makes a difference. Below are some of our recently completed projects.

We are proud to bring a new MRIDigital X-RayFluoroscopy MachineGamma Camera and three new Portable Ultrasound Machines to Peace Arch Hospital!

ER and OR Expansion

ER and OR Expansion

Our brand new ER and OR opened in January 2022! Thank you to our incredible community of supporters for funding $38.5 million towards the total project cost of $91.05 million!

The new emergency department is nearly three times the size of the current facility with a private triage area, dedicated ambulance entrance, significantly more treatment areas including specific pediatric and mental health spaces, isolation rooms and an improved layout and space configuration. The new OR will meet best practice standards for modern surgical requirements, and will accommodate not only current needs, but the anticipated needs of our community for the next 20 years.

Ellen Sinclair Kennett Lodge

Ellen Sinclair Kennett Lodge

The Ellen Sinclair Kennett Lodge is a 200-bed residential care facility featuring the 15-bed George & Sylvia Melville Hospice Home, and a 73-bed elder mental health unit. $10 million was successfully raised in a public fundraising campaign and this state-of-the-art building opened in April 2020.

The Lodge has been built on land owned by Peace Arch Hospital Foundation and Fraser Health is operating the medical services for patients requiring complex residential care, specialized mental health treatment, and hospice care for a patient’s final days.

CT Scanner

CT Scanner

New medical equipment is always at the forefront of the Foundation’s fundraising efforts and back in early 2019, we were able to provide Peace Arch Hospital’s Medical Imaging department with a new CT scanner. Overall, $1.3 million was raised for this modern, state-of-the-art CT scanner that continues to make a huge impact for both patients and medical imaging technologists. 

Installation of the new CT scanner was complete in the Spring of 2019 and a special ribbon-cutting was held in January 2020 for the major donors who contributed to this important new addition to the radiography department. Thank you to every donor who made this possible!
