CPDMH Emergency Department (ED) Expansion

The Foundation's Commitment to ED Expansion

Formed in 1994, the Carleton Place & District Memorial Hospital (CPDMH) Foundation is dedicated to raising funds for CPDMH in support of providing the best healthcare possible to the residents of Carleton Place and the surrounding communities. With that in the mind, the CPDMH Foundation supports the Hospital’s desire to expand and improve the current facility with an Emergency Department Redevelopment Project and recorded its unanimous commitment to the project during a Board of Directors meeting on June 17, 2015.

On October 28, 2016, the Honourable Dr. Eric Hoskins, Minister of Health and Long-Term Care, visited CPDMH to announce the approval of a brand new Emergency Department for patients and families in Carleton Place, Beckwith and surrounding communities. Read the media announcement.

Shovels hit the ground on October 28, 2023 with construction in full swing straight through the winter months and into the fall of 2024. We are currently preparing the final finishing touches on the new Emergency Department that is scheduled to open January 2025. Read the latest press release details here.
