BRHC Critical Care Centre – Transforming Critical Care for Our Region

$4 Million Capital Campaign Project taken on by the BRHC Foundation

Every moment matters in critical care. For patients facing life-threatening medical emergencies, access to high-quality intensive care can mean the difference between life and death. The new Critical Care Centre at the Brandon Regional Health Centre (BRHC) will provide life-saving services to individuals across our region, offering advanced care, state-of-the-art equipment, and an improved healing environment. As the only Intensive Care Unit (ICU) between Winnipeg and Regina on the number one highway, this facility will be a lifeline for patients from a vast geographic area.

The demand for critical care services continues to rise, and our current infrastructure needs to expand to meet increasing acute care requirements, elevate Brandon to an intermediate care site, and support the provincial growing needs. The new Critical Care Centre will provide:

• Main Level: A larger, more efficient ICU with an expanded capacity from 10 to 16 beds
  • Large single rooms to improve patient/family experience
• Second Floor – 30 higher-acuity medical beds to support patients requiring specialized care
  • Large single rooms with washrooms and showers, better equipped to manage complex cases requiring close monitoring and treatment
• Modern equipment and technology to enhance treatment outcomes.
• Beautiful outdoor courtyard to provide a place of healing and rest for patients, families and staff

The Brandon Regional Health Centre Foundation has taken on this capital campaign project, “A Foundation for Care,” to raise $ 4 million.  To reach this goal, the Foundation will invite businesses, organizations, and individuals to join us in this life-saving initiative. Your generosity will directly impact the quality of critical care available in our region. This new facility will not only serve Brandon but will also support communities across the region. Patients from rural areas, small towns, and remote communities rely on the BRHC for advanced medical care. This will reduce patient transfer to larger, more distant hospitals and keep patients near their families and support networks.

We value our donors and want to acknowledge their generosity in meaningful ways. To express gratitude, the Foundation is offering various donation packages, which will be available through the Foundation office.

Your contribution is more than a donation—it is an investment in the health and well-being of our entire region. By supporting the new Critical Care Centre, you ensure that patients needing urgent, life-saving care have access to the best medical resources available close to home.

Medical professionals will benefit from improved infrastructure, state-of-the-art equipment, and increased capacity to provide exceptional care, ultimately improving job satisfaction. This also helps recruit and retain professionals in the city and surrounding communities.
