Construction of the $780 million Prince of Wales Hospital Integrated Acute Services Building has reached its highest point, marking a key milestone for Randwick\u2019s new health and innovation precinct.
\nPremier Gladys Berejiklian said the new state-of-the-art hospital building is a key feature of the $1.5 billion Randwick Health & Innovation Precinct, which includes an investment of more than $1 billion from the NSW Government.
\n\u201cThis new hospital building will deliver first class healthcare services to support the community as it grows, while opening up opportunities for ground-breaking health and education partnerships,\u201d Ms Berejiklian said.
\n\u201cThe community will also benefit from a real economic boost, with around 600 new jobs created through the building\u2019s construction alone, and potential for thousands more flow-on jobs over the project\u2019s lifetime.\u201d
\nHealth Minister Brad Hazzard said the NSW Government has partnered with the University of New South Wales to deliver contemporary clinical spaces to provide the best possible healthcare for patients into the future.
\n\u201cThis partnership will give the precinct a competitive edge on the global stage for health advancements, research and education,\u201d Mr Hazzard said.
\n\u201cTogether we will bring innovative treatments and medical advancements from the bench top to the bedside to improve health outcomes for our community.\u201d
\nThe building will include a new emergency department, extra inpatient beds, a new helipad, intensive care unit, aged care services, a new psychiatric emergency care centre and shared operating theatres for the campus when it opens in 2022.
\nUnder the next phase of the Randwick Campus Redevelopment within the precinct, Sydney Children\u2019s Hospital Stage 1 and the Children\u2019s Comprehensive Cancer Centre are on track to be completed in 2025 and UNSW Health Translation Hub is scheduled to open in late 2026.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
