The major expansion project is a Western Australian State Government-funded project which, in partnership with Ramsay Health Care, is being delivered through an innovative procurement partnering solution to enable construction without disrupting full services within the hospital.
There is a key focus on expanding mental health services to a 102-bed inpatient facility through adding: 90 inpatient beds (60 shelled); 12 emergency department influenza-like illness (ILI) bays to treat infectious diseases such as COVID; a Behavioural Assessment Urgent Care Clinic; 6 Coronary Care beds; operating theatre; Cardiac Catheterisation Laboratory; and various back of house improvements.
Construction also included expanding the capacity of the multi-storey staff car park by an additional 215 parking bays.
