The Cowra Hospital Redevelopment has unveiled an innovative prototype room of the new and enhanced inpatient rooms, giving staff the opportunity to test its features.
Staff will be able to experience the design, technology and functionality of the new hospital space as construction continues.
Features include an ensuite bathroom, the planned colour scheme, and equipment which will be used when the redevelopment is complete.
The $110.2 million redevelopment has been shaped by feedback from staff and the community throughout the planning and design phase. This has led to improved access, more onsite parking, new landscaped areas and larger windows.
When complete, the new hospital building will provide a modern and purpose-built health facility for the region including:
- An emergency department
- A general medical and surgery inpatient ward
- A peri-operative service
- A maternity unit with a dedicated nursery
- Ambulatory care
- A dental clinic
- Renal dialysis
- Oncology
- Community health and mental health, drug and alcohol services
- The hospital’s first CT scanner.
Construction on the Cowra Hospital is well under way with work for the façade, internal fit out, and landscaping progressing.
Health services are continuing to operate during construction, with the new hospital on track for completion at the end of 2025.
