KBRH MRI Suite Expansion

A new MRI suite at Kootenay Boundary Regional Hospital (KBRH), Trail, will be permanently integrated into the hospital. Once open, this will replace the current MRI trailer. The new MRI suite will make a significant improvement to quality of care and increase accessibility to services for vulnerable patients, including those with serious conditions, disabilities, pediatric and elderly patients, and those experiencing mental-health challenges.

The new MRI supports KBRH as a Regional Oncology Centre, Level 3 Trauma Referral Centre, and Regional Stroke Centre. The project is expected to be complete and ready to receive patients in 2028.
