Lakeridge plans to add 300 new hospital beds in the region. That includes a redeveloped hospital in Bowmanville, Ont., and a new post-acute care facility in Pickering, Ont., for rehabilitation and recovery."This expansion is part of an integrated and truly regional plan to provide people in Durham with more connected and convenient care," Ford said.
The campaign offered four prizes to residents in an effort to drum up support, which included a yearlong family health club membership, an Apple watch and two activity packs with backpacks and towels."Folks, that is wrong, you can't be doing that," Ford said at the time.
