Watch: Opening ceremonies for Jim Pattison Children’s Hospital
Nearly five years after a historic groundbreaking, the Jim Pattison Children’s Hospital officially opens today. Patients will be moved in at a later date.
Many say it will usher in a new, state-of-the-art chapter for health care across the province.
The hospital was named after the businessman and philanthropist when he made the largest one-time donation in Saskatchewan’s history to a charitable organization – $50 million.
The total cost of the hospital is expected to come in around $285 million.
