DAVIDSON HEALTH CENTRE OFFICIALLY OPENS

Released on March 5, 2001

Residents of Davidson and area have a brand new health centre. Midwest

District Health and representatives from local towns, villages and rural

municipalities celebrated the official opening of the Davidson and District

Health Centre today.



The health centre replaces the old Davidson Hospital and consolidates

community services under one roof. The new facility includes long-term

care, acute care, emergency and diagnostic services, observation, respite,

convalescent and palliative care. Home Care and Community Health services

are also part of the new health centre.



The new centre reflects government's commitment to work with partners in

the health sector to provide accessible and affordable, quality health care

services to the people of Saskatchewan, according to Health Minister John

Nilson.



"Individuals and families in Davidson and the surrounding communities will

benefit from a new health centre with access to inpatient services and

community programs all in one location," Nilson said, speaking at today's

grand opening.



"The new health centre came out of a lot of hard work and planning,"

Midwest District Health CEO Doug Ball said. "The facility and the services

offered here were developed with the needs of local residents in mind."



The total project cost of $3.1 million includes a provincial contribution

of $1.7 million and a local share of $1.4 million.
