Teck Acute Care Centre (BC Children’s And BC Women’s Hospital)
Vancouver, BC
The Teck Acute Care Centre (BC Children’s and Women’s Hospital)
integrates multiple outdated care facilities into one facility. The
vision provides a bright, modern facility that affords every patient
a room of their own, where a parent can comfortably stay with their
child overnight. Natural light, fresh air, and interaction with nature
have been driving principles in the design.
The project features new arrivals and dropoff retaining the existing
treed Ring Road, thematic children’s health and wellness gardens,
wellness walks, and accessible rooftop sensory gardens.
