"Infrastructure Ontario and Quinte Health selected M. Sullivan & Son Limited following extensive evaluations through an open, fair and competitive procurement process that began in March 2023. The new hospital will be a leading, cutting-edge health care facility designed to meet the needs of the local community now and for years to come. The new facility will feature improved equipment and facilities including a 24-hour emergency department, helipad, surgical suite, dialysis unit and other specializations. Construction is expected to begin in summer 2024."

“Our community is being looked at as leaders and architects can’t believe how fast we are raising this money,” said Coull. “The campaign has really positioned us to be able to explore opportunities we did not think possible from the beginning. Our stretch goal for the new hospital is $7 million, since we’ve raised $21 million so now we have a goal of $6 million for the next five years. What that $6 million is going to cover is environmental sustainability enhancements, all the major medical equipment that is going into the new hospital and a building that will have smart technology.”
"Building a new Quinte Health Care Prince Edward County Memorial Hospital represents a collaborative effort reinforced by the unwavering support of our partners and the community we serve," said Mary Clare Egberts, President and Chief Executive Officer, Quinte Health Care. "We have all spoken with one voice about the need for a new hospital in Picton and the government has heard this message and has taken action. We are grateful for today's announcement, which provides the necessary funds to support the next stage in planning for our new hospital."
