Gosford Hospital Redevelopment
GOSFORD HOSPITAL REDEVELOPMENT
The major redevelopment of Gosford Hospital saw the expansion of the existing hospital to provide improved quality of care into the future.
The construction included a new 11 storey main building tower with circa 35,000sqm of new build, plus 9,000sqm of refurbished floor space. The redevelopment included dedicated areas for an expanded maternity service, new paediatric treatment unit, an emergency department, additional cancer services, a new rehabilitation unit and ambulatory care services. The main entrance was moved for easier access, a car park added and a new floor layout so patients and visitors can easily navigate the hospital.
JHA was extensively involved in this project’s planning phase (ECI/GMP), during which the critical infrastructure planning was progressed and resolved to ensure the Local Health District’s needs and expectations were met.
JHA’s subsequent role was to oversee the detailed design, documentation, construction and post construction activities to completion, to ensure a quality fit-for-purpose facility was delivered.
JHA’s services encompassed the electrical, communications, security and vertical transport aspects of the project, along with careful coordination with all other engineering services.
