Years in the Making: A Vision Realized

This ambitious project has been years in the making, originally sparked under the leadership of former Premier Dwight Ball. Today signifies a monumental leap forward as patients transition from the Waterford Hospital to the state-of-the-art facility adjacent to Health Sciences.

A Generational Milestone for Mental Health

According to NL Health Services CEO Pat Parfrey, this opening represents a “generational milestone in transforming mental health and addictions services in the province.” It's not just a facility; it's a beacon of hope for those seeking support and recovery.
