Progress at the Glen site: a question of equipment too

Since the launch of the construction phase at the Glen site, our teams have put a lot of effort into the identification and purchase of equipment specific to the activities of a university health centre.

The McGill University Health Centre Biomedical and Medical Physics teams, in collaboration with the Planning Office, have worked hard to provide the necessary technical details needed to design and build the thousands of specialized rooms that will make up the Glen site.

In addition to this, teams are preparing for the purchase of a large quantity of mobile medical equipment, as well as office and conference room furniture. To give you an idea of the magnitude of this project, more than 180 million dollars’ worth of new equipment has been or is about to be purchased.

Although the last two years represent an enormous investment in terms of time and effort on behalf of the Biomedical and Medical Physics teams, the Information Technology (IT) office and the Planning Office, there’s still much work to be done. But with the high calibre expertise of the people concerned and with their tireless teamwork, we’ll achieve all of our goals.
