The new Terrace hospital will be named Ksyen Regional Hospital, honoring local Indigenous culture.
The Northern Health Authority has named the new Terrace hospital Ksyen Regional Hospital, reflecting the Tsimshian Sm'algyax word for the Skeena River. Proposed by the Kitsumkalum First Nation, the name honors local Indigenous culture. Dr. Stanley Mills will be recognized with a history wall and an ambulatory care unit named in his honor. The hospital is set to open in late November, with a budget that increased to accommodate advanced care facilities for newborns and high-risk pregnancies.
