Page 15 - GBGH Foundation - Mental Health Case For Support

All patients, regardless of whether they are

affected by medical conditions or mental

health conditions need space, privacy,

dignity and supported care to heal.

• The new unit will encapsulate best practices for space planning
and design for mental health care (i.e. individual rooms, outdoor
recreational spaces).

• The new wing will be connected to the hospital by a healing bridge
pathway.

• It will be a bright and soothing environment surrounded by nature.

• Light will be maximized throughout to create a therapeutic
environment.

• The new wing will be integrated into the design of the new hospital.

• We will be consulting on the design to ensure that it is a culturally
appropriate space for all.

• It will include a dedicated smudge room for our Indigenous population.
