Canada's largest teaching hospital is being built in Mississauga — and planners are giving the public a sneak peek
Tucked between a furniture retailer and a home decor store in a sleepy Mississauga strip mall is what Trillium Health Partners says is the future of Ontario's health care. Or what that future will look like after 2034, once Trillium's new Peter Gilgan Mississauga Hospital is complete. Dubbing it the Experience Centre, Trillium Health Partners has set up several mocked-up clinical spaces in an empty storefront — including an operating room, a birthing room and a room for general patients — to offer community members a sneak peek of the future hospital. THP is the administrative body that oversees the Credit Valley Hospital, Mississauga Hospital and Queensway Health Centre in Mississauga. The new hospital, which is being built as a replacement for the Mississauga Hospital on the Queensway about five kilometres west of the Experience Centre, will become Canada's largest teaching hospital once finished, the province says. Along with the Shah Family Hospital for Women and Children, the new 22-storey building will be three times the size of the current hospital, and include 950 patient rooms and nearly 650 surgical rooms, along with expanded emergency, ICU and mental health departments. Aside from signs about the development project displayed in the hallway and laminated stickers of outlets and other details taped to the walls, the Experience Centre felt like a functional health-care facility when the Star went on a tour Monday. Bedding and blankets covered the patient beds, gloves and other PPE lined shelves near the entrance to the rooms, and computers and other equipment sat on clinical workspaces. 'People can see it and experience it,' said THP president and CEO Karli Farrow, 'so we can see it's going to have many years of usage.' The display rooms also felt larger than what you would expect in a hospital — and Farrow and members of THP's planning team leading the tour said this was intentional. 'This was very much informed from our experience during the COVID-19 years,' said Dr. Ivan Cacic, an anesthesiologist and THP's chief medical director. Karli Farrow, president and CEO of Trillium Health Partners, looks over a model of the Peter Gilgan Mississauga Hospital. Along with bigger rooms, planners have also designed over 100 rooms specifically for containing airborne illnesses. As Cacic explained, these rooms are self-sufficient — meaning everything a doctor or nurse may need while caring for a potentially infectious patient can be accessed without opening the door to the rest of the hospital — and have a room for clinical staff to safely don and doff PPE equipment. In the future emergency department, rooms for containing airborne illnesses will also have a separate entrance from the general ambulance entrance to ensure others waiting for emergency care aren't infected, Cacic added. Beyond the designated rooms, the 22nd floor can be shut off from the rest of the hospital. 'If we ever have SARS (or COVID) again,' said manager of clinical planning Manju Sherma, 'we have space that we know can be easily converted right away as soon as we need.' Throughout the tour, planners stressed the Experience Centre is important for THP's engagement process. Since opening in May, there have been six open houses for people to visit and walk through the mock spaces, along with virtual tours. They hope visitors leave the open houses feeling excited about the future hospital, which is currently under construction right next to the existing Mississauga Hospital. While the current hospital is still operating, it will be torn down once the new building is finished. Along with open houses for the public, THP has invited members of its clinical team to run simulations in the mock-up rooms, then gathered feedback on their design. Whether it's been raising the height of a sink in a patient bathroom to make it more accessible or redoing the layout of the general patient room to give nurses more space to care for a patient in bed, Cathy Walker, a former nurse and now manager for clinical planning at THP, said the feedback from the clinical team has been very helpful. 'Obviously we want to build a room that we don't have to rebuild after we built it just because it doesn't meet the needs of our teams,' she said. Manager of clinical planning Manju Sherma walks through an example of one of the 26 planned operating rooms. This focus on the future, Farrow said, informed other design considerations like ensuring operating rooms can be used for any surgery. Peel region, with Brampton in particular, has long struggled with hospital capacity. While Farrow and other planners believe the future Gilgan hospital in Mississauga will provide much needed in-person care, they noted that the future building will still be 300 beds short of demand by the time it opens in a decade. Still, Farrow described the future build as a 'forever hospital.' 'It's going to be here for generations.' Error! Sorry, there was an error processing your request.
