Lake of the Woods District Hospital

Lake of the Woods District Hospital is still waiting to find out if it will be getting a couple of key planning grants.

The hospital has applied for funding to plan for an overhaul of its surgical unit and also a long term plan for a new hospital.

Chief Executive Officer Marc Belcaen says the Northwest Local Health Integration Network has approved the proposals and passed them onto the Ministry of Health in Toronto.

He says they hope to meet with ministry officials this week about their proposals and find out where they stand.
