The hospital development was an issue in the Strathcona County municipal election, 2010. The incumbent mayor, Cathy Olesen, was defeated by Linda Osinchuk who ran a campaign attacking contemporary plans for the hospital which involved no overnight beds.[1] After the election, the Alberta government announced revised plans to add beds to the hospital.
The project broke ground in 2007 and was expected to be completed in late 2009,[2] but was put on hold due to the down turn in the economy. Construction was resumed in spring 2010 and was completed in 2014.[3]
The hospital will provide a variety of services.[4]
