Tender Issued for New Mental Health Unit in Labrador

The provincial government has granted a tender to build a six-bed extension for mental health care at the Labrador Health Centre in Happy Valley-Goose Bay.

The single-story, 626 m2 extension will provide private bedrooms for residents to receive mental health services, and include spaces for dining, lounging, recreation and group therapy. The extension will also include a therapeutic quiet room, which can also be used for Indigenous ceremonies.

Construction is expected to begin this summer and conclude in 2022.
