NGH will benefit from post-construction funding

Queen’s Park – Norfolk General Hospital will soon receive $209,100 to help with its on-going expansion of emergency services and ambulatory care.

“This news comes as a pleasant surprise,” said Haldimand-Norfolk-Brant MPP Toby Barrett. “There are many volunteers and donors who have given so much to this very important project – it’s nice to see that they will receive a bit of a boost.”

According to the Ministry of Health, these funds will also help with operating costs associated with the newly-constructed space.
