The Trillium Health Centre - Mississauga project includes:

Trillium Health Centre's redevelopment will help to improve health care by increasing cardiac catheterizations by 30 per cent and increasing cardiac surgeries by 20 per cent. A decentralized patient-care model will allow for more care at the bedside and increased productivity.
New construction will add 196,004 square feet, while 86,156 square feet will be renovated, resulting in 282,160 square feet of total redeveloped space.
Construction is expected to begin in May 2007.
