Multiplex delivers new building at St George Hospital
10 November 2017
Multiplex, a leading global
contractor, has completed the Acute Services Building, the centrepiece
of the
NSW Government’s $277 million
redevelopment of
St George Hospital
at Gray Street, Kogarah.
Constructed in a live
hospital environment, the Acute Services Building
is the first of its scale in New South Wales to be constructed directly
above an operational 24-hour Emergency Department.
The nine-level Acute Services Building features a 52 bed intensive care
unit and high dependency unit, cardiac catheterisation unit, eight
digital and interventional operating theatres, 128 inpatient beds, a
sterilising services department, a rooftop helipad, office support
areas, and an impressive atrium which provides critical linkage from the
new building to the existing ED, Tower Ward Block and Clinical Services
Building.
Mr Daniel Murphy, Regional Director
NSW at Multiplex said the Acute
Services Building added to Multiplex’s solid reputation as leaders in
hospital construction.
“The completion of the Acute Services Building marks another milestone
in our ongoing collaboration with NSW Health Infrastructure. This
project was highly specialised in nature with state-of-the-art medical
grade inclusions and construction also occurred within an active
hospital campus environment,” he said.
Multiplex has completed many high-profile hospital and healthcare
projects over the last few years including the Clinical Services
Building at the
Royal North Shore Hospital in Sydney, the
South East
Regional Hospital and
Byron Central Hospital in NSW, and
Fiona Stanley
Hospital and
St John of God Midland Hospitals in Western Australia.
It was also recently appointed by
Health Infrastructure to deliver the
NSW Government’s $900 million
Westmead Redevelopment, one of the State’s
largest hospital redevelopment project that will generate some 1,500
construction jobs per year.
