The Blayney Multipurpose Service (MPS) has reached a significant milestone, with the concrete poured for the first phase of the project.
The Blayney MPS Redevelopment project is the final site to be delivered under the NSW Government’s $297 million Multipurpose Service Program Stage 5 to improve and enhance health facilities across smaller rural and remote communities.
The Blaney MPS will deliver a new purpose-built and modern health facility to improve health and aged care services for the local community.
The facility will include a new residential aged care wing with single rooms and bathrooms, more inpatient unit beds, increased chair-based services, more HealthOne rooms, and room for future expansion.
The new MPS is being built on the existing Osman Street site in stages to ensure all clinical services continue to operate during construction. The project’s first phase, which includes construction of a new residential aged care wing and inpatient unit, is progressing well with the final concrete pour now complete.
The next steps will include construction of the residential aged care wing and inpatient unit, followed by the internal fit-out, services installation and other exterior works. The aged care residents will relocate into the new residential aged care wing once this phase of redevelopment is completed.
The second phase of works will then start, including demolition of the existing buildings and construction of the new HealthOne, entry, reception, waiting room, staff area and ambulatory care.
The current MPS remains fully operational as construction progresses and every effort is being made to minimise disruption to residents, staff, patients and visitors.
The community will continue to be updated about the redevelopment’s progress with information available on the project website.
