General Urban Kitchener Updates and Rumours

[timc]

The plan is to make this hospital a new super hospital.  It will be the only Emerg department in KW...  That's a problem. if it isn't central.

I must have misread the announcement, because what I got from it is that the current GRH location on King Street would retain an emergency department.

The three main components from the website:
* A new, state-of-the-art hospital site in Kitchener-Waterloo.
* Renewing and repurposing the existing mid-town K-W Campus as an ambulatory and urgent care centre.
* Renewing and expanding the Freeport Campus in Kitchener for modernized and expanded rehabilitation capacity.

Is an "ambulatory and urgent care centre" different from an emergency department?
