Rockyview General Hospital

Expansions and renovations are almost complete at the Rockyview General Hospital to help meet the health care demands of our growing and aging population. Three stories have been added to the hospital’s North Tower, and a three-storey addition has been built on the South side of the Main Hospital. The new parkade is on the east side of the hospital by the 14 Street entrance.

Additional Services

Two new operating rooms to increase surgeries.
Over 100 inpatient beds have been added.
A new emergency department to improve emergency and urgent care services.
Centralized meeting and teaching rooms for idea sharing and education opportunities.
Administration and office space to support hospital operations.
A new heliport for emergency situations.
A 547-space parkade for staff and visitors.

Future Plans

Plans for the hospital allow future growth to occur. Shelled-in space in the South Addition will be reserved to make room for expansions, and renovations will also occur in the existing building. Plans include:
