We are proud to announce the opening of 12 additional ICU beds on Level 8! This expansion represents Humber’s commitment to the long-term health and well-being of our community.

When the pandemic first hit, our Intensive Care Unit (ICU) quickly filled up the entire 6th floor of Humber River Health’s Wilson Site, accommodating 48 beds — one of the largest ICUs in the province. Yet, the demand for intensive care continued to outpace our capacity. In response to this pressing need, Humber took action. Our goal was to bolster our ICU capacity and ensure that we could meet the growing needs of our community for critical care.

We are proud to announce the opening of 12 additional ICU beds on Level 8. These beds are not a temporary fix; they are a permanent addition to our healthcare infrastructure. This expansion represents Humber’s commitment to the long-term health and well-being of our community.

With these new beds in place, we can provide intensive care to more patients, right here in our own neighborhood. This means fewer people will have to travel long distances to receive the critical care they need. It also means that we are better equipped to handle future challenges, whether they come in the form of another pandemic or other medical emergencies.

We are incredibly grateful to our donors whose generosity made this expansion possible. Their support has enabled us to enhance our ability to care for those who need it most. As we look to the future, we are confident that these additional ICU beds will play a vital role in ensuring the health and safety of our community for years to come.
