MAKE YOUR MARK ON THE FUTURE OF HEALTHCARE IN BURLINGTON! JBH’s new hospital will create an environment of wellness. The design of the patient tower creates a cohesive relationship between inside and outside, incorporating the use of natural daylight, large windows, outdoor courtyards, terraces and roof top gardens. JBH recognizes the large body of evidence that documents the positive effect of daylight and views on patient and staff wellness and the building supports this focus on natural light, views to outdoors and Lake Ontario. There is an outdoor Healing Garden, Dining Terrace, Rooftop Terrace and a Labyrinth for patients, staff, and visitors. The tower is being developed to meet LEED Silver certifications. Our new patient tower will create an exceptional environment to receive care. Your gift of $25,000 (payable over five years) to the Our New Era Campaign will support a brand new single patient room in our new patient tower. Your generosity will be recognized through the dedication of a single patient room, which can be named for individuals, families, businesses or in honour or memory of a loved one. To learn more, please contact Ashley Davidson, Director – Major Gifts, at (905) 632-3737 ext. 3474 or [email protected]. 70% single patient rooms Patient Lift: Each room will be equipped with a ceiling mounted patient lift which is an important piece of hospital equipment used to assist in the transfer of patients with mobility issues to and from the bed.
