"This vital improvement in emergency services will allow us to continue to provide the people of St. Johns and its surrounding communities with immediate, local health care when care is most needed."
The facility is one of several renovations undertaken by Sparrow, which have resulted in around $250m being reinvested in the region over the last three years.
