Province to open new Cardiovascular and Stroke Institute

Plans are underway to construct a new Cardiovascular and Stroke Institute that will be located at the Health Sciences Centre site in St. John’s.

The new facility will focus on the prevention and management of cardiac and cerebrovascular disease, which includes strokes.

It will allow for enhanced cardiac, vascular, and stroke services and other clinical services. It will create a modern working environment and will increase the number of operating rooms and inpatient beds at the Health Sciences Centre.
