The Cumberland Regional Health Care Centre (CRHCC) will go a long way to serving more than the health care needs of the community. The hospital will enhance health care services county wide. The new regional hospital is a model of efficiency. The centrepiece of the building is a two-story atrium running along the central portion of the building with many of the hospital's departments easily accessed. It was designed to incorporate as much natural light into the facility as possible. Like other buildings under the Cumberland Health Authority, The Cumberland Regional Heath Care Centre will be entirely smoke free.

Ariel View of the Cumberland Regional Health Care CentreThe brand-new $46 million health-care centre will be providing Cumberland County with high-quality health care. The building, which was built around the needs and functions of the staff, will have the same number of beds, but boasts 70 per cent more space.
Cumberland County will be able to provide top of the line health care with the acquisition of several pieces of new equipment and the hiring of a radiologist. The services to be provided at the new site includes 24-hour emergency care, surgery, internal medicine, anesthesia, obstetrics, general medicine, intensive care, diagnostic imaging including a CT-Scan, rehabilitative service including physiotherapy and occupational therapy, diabetes education, laboratory and other related support services.
