The centrepiece of the Canberra Hospital Expansion
Multiplex has completed the new emergency, surgical and critical healthcare building on the Canberra Hospital campus.
The new Critical Services Building is the first fully-electric hospital building in Australia, and is the largest healthcare infrastructure project ever undertaken by the ACT Government to date and will be key in meeting the healthcare needs of the growing community in the region.
The project has delivered increased capacity across Canberra Hospital’s adult intensive care, paediatric intensive care, surgical, coronary care and emergency services with additional operating rooms, treatment spaces and intensive care beds.
Designed by BVN in consultation with hospital staff and health care consumers to create an environment of healing and connection, the new facility is open and modern, with outdoor terraces and courtyards serving as family and visitor waiting areas, providing an elevated experience for all hospital users
