After decades of costly studies and divisive debate, the Quebec government has opted to build the new French-language superhospital downtown, on the site of St. Luc Hospital on St. Denis St. The $1.1-billion Centre Hospitalier de l'Universite de Montreal will have 700 patient rooms and double the existing medical research space at St. Luc. Construction is to get under way by 2006, and the new teaching hospital should be fully open by 2011, health officials say. "I'm very happy and proud to be associated with a project that marks the development of health care in Quebec," Premier Jean Charest said yesterday at a news conference in Montreal. "At last, we are making headway in a project that's been talked about for decades." Marc Laviolette, a CHUM board member representing citizens and former head of the Confederation des syndicats nationaux, smiled broadly as he heard the announcement. "It's a good decision for people living downtown, in east-end Montreal, and on the South Shore," he said. "Thirty per cent of our users come from Monteregie, and this will be very accessible to them by the highway." Under the superhospital plans, Notre Dame Hospital - now part of the CHUM network- will remain open as an independent, community-based hospital with 300 beds. Once the superhospital is fully operational, CHUM's Hotel Dieu will close its 303 hospital beds, and the heritage buildings will be converted to other health department-related uses, said Patrick Molinari, chairperson of the CHUM board. The CHUM project, together with the new McGill University Health Centre in the Glen Yard and expansion work under way at Ste. Justine's Hospital, are part of a $2.6-billion upgrade of health facilities in Montreal. "It's the biggest health-care project now in North America, and the most important project in Quebec history," Charest said. The Quebec government will fork over $800 million each to the CHUM and MUHC superhospital projects, and $200 million to Ste. Justine's. The rest of the funding will have to come from the federal government and the private sector, the premier said. The government is to name an executive director to oversee budgets and work deadlines for the three projects, Health Minister Philippe Couillard said. Each project will also have its own manager, he added. The downtown site won out over the Outremont rail-yard project proposed by Universite de Montreal rector Robert Lacroix on grounds of safety, cost, completion date, and accessibility, the premier said. Charest said the government is still interested in the idea of a high-tech health sciences park in Montreal, along the lines of Lacroix's vision for the Outremont site. A disappointed Lacroix said he could not comment for now on the potential for a health-sciences technoparc downtown. The university had concluded Outremont was a promising site for its health sciences departments and associated private research companies, he said. Given Quebec's decision to reject the Outremont site, "the technoparc will take more thought and study," Lacroix said. Whether the university medical school and bioresearch companies move downtown or set up in Outremont will have little effect on the downtown CHUM's success, Molinari said. "It's more and more clear that important research projects in teaching hospitals are multi-site," he said, noting that far-flung researchers often share information via the Internet. "The concept of having teams of researchers all looking through the same microscope is less and less likely these days." Molinari said planners will try to make the St. Luc overhaul as painless as possible for hospital users as well as for people who live, work or play in the area. "Montreal has been building downtown for years," he noted. "There are inconveniences, but you have to look at the end result." � The Gazette (Montreal) 2005 http://www.canada.com/montreal/montrealgazette/news/story.html?id=77976d41-369e-4064-b5d1-43fcc7b7939c --- URG-L Les archives de la liste d'echange sont disponibles pour consultation a l'adresse : <http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]>
