Construction upgrades at the Owen King EU Hospital are underway.
A staff and visitor cafeteria, kitchen, laundry and car park are being built.
Project Engineer at the hospital, Wendel Bernard, said a staff and visitor cafeteria is being built, in addition to a kitchen, laundry and car park. The upgrades, he said, are not expected to significantly affect the opening of the hospital.
“We expect the cafeteria to be completed in the next three to four months, and the car park to be finished within the next two months. But with respect to the kitchen and laundry, which affects the opening, we earmark that it will be completed in the next three months.”
Mr. Bernard added that equipment and furniture for the hospital have been shipped, and will be installed over the next few months.
