Project Background and Scope

Major redevelopment of existing hospital comprising of providing additional facilities for expanded emergency department, PECC, mortuary, ICU, medical imaging, CSSD, IPU, new ways of working, outpatients, rehab therapies, pharmacy etc.

The Hospital needed a major expansion after Stage 1 Star redevelopment. The government funding allocated to the project was not sufficient to deliver all the services identified as required. MBM has worked collaboratively with the client and project team to develop multiple options for consideration that focus on delivering priority services but also act as enablers for future stage 2A once further funding became available.

Project Challenges

The Hornsby Ku-Ring Gai Hospital redevelopment is Multistage project delivering critical clinical and out-patient services for the expanding Hornsby Shire area. The project is located on brownfield site with staging between construction works being one of the focal points of the redevelopment. It’s being delivered in close association with HI, NSLHD and Hornsby Hospital. The construction of the new stages involved demolition of existing buildings, decanting and temporary accommodation of hospital staff, building new split-level car parking to meet future Hospital demands, site infrastructure works etc. The project has multiple stakeholders.
