    • D5 ward will be under renovations beginning tentatively between June and September/2018. Renovations estimate time frame 12-18 months. Manager hopes 6 patients will be decanted to B2 beds during such time rather than H7 (old CCU). This area (H7) will be used for contingency beds after CAU moves to B2. D5 patients on B2 would be considered "off-ward" as our non-teaching medicine patients are on RR5 and RR6.--Llemoine 13:07, 2018 April 4 (CDT)
