The Government of Newfoundland and Labrador, through the Department of Transportation and Infrastructure and the Department of Health and Community Services, has issued a request for proposals (RFP) via MERX for a multidisciplinary consulting team to conduct a comprehensive assessment of St. Clare's Mercy Hospital. The work includes a facility condition assessment, accessibility review, environmental and hazardous materials investigations, and an expansion feasibility study to support long-term healthcare infrastructure planning on the Northeast Avalon. This initiative follows the provincial government's announcement in January 2026 to begin planning the redevelopment of St. Clare’s Mercy Hospital, supported by Budget 2026's $5.4 billion investment which includes an additional $370 million for health care.
