New Hospitals

Following last month’s announcement of Stage 2 funding from Premier Doug Ford and Health Minister Christine Elliott, work on the functional program for the New Windsor/Essex Acute Care Hospital is now underway. The planning involves establishing a set of design principles to guide the process going forward and those overseeing the project want to hear from you by completing a survey!

Design principles are a set of agreed-upon values that will guide the planning team throughout the design process for the new hospital. These principles are established by the Hospital Executive Committee, with input from hospital staff, professional staff, users, and the community. Throughout the project, they keep the teams focused on a shared set of criteria and provide a guide for decision-making.

"We want to integrate the community’s vision for the New Windsor/Essex Acute Care Hospital into the project right from the beginning, starting with the Design Principles," said David Musyj, President and CEO of Windsor Regional Hospital. “This is the first of many opportunities individuals will have to share their thoughts and provide input throughout the process including opportunities to provide input on specific program and services areas as work progresses."

The survey takes less than five minutes to complete and asks participants to share their top priorities for the New Windsor/Essex Acute Care Hospital design and explain why they feel these priorities are important.

Have your say!

Participants wishing to let the planning team know their priorities for the new hospital design have the following options:

  • Fill out an online survey.
  • Call and leave your thoughts via voice mail at 519-254-5577 ext. 37922
  • Send written comments by mail to:
Public Affairs Department
Windsor Regional Hospital, Ouellette Campus
1030 Ouellette Avenue
Windsor, Ontario N9A 1E1

Those providing feedback by phone or mail are asked to answer the question "What are your 'top priorities' for the New Windsor/Essex Acute Care Hospital design and why?" 

Participants are asked to share their feedback by December 10, 2021. Once established, the final set of principles will be shared on the hospital’s website and through social media.
