Newcastle Private Hospital to commence development
Over the next three years Newcastle Private Hospital will undergo a major development and expansion project.
In a three phased process the project will deliver additional consulting rooms, another 30 single patient rooms, 3 theatres including an angiography suite, 12 critical care beds, a further 225 car parking spaces, plus an upgrade to the Croudace Theatre complex.
General Manager, Michael Mitchell, said “The demand on health services in the greater Newcastle area is steadily increasing. The development will ensure that we can provide our patients with state of the art healthcare well into the future.”
The phased development will allow for the subsequent addition of the new theatres and patient-beds to be undertaken without delay. Work is currently in progress on the construction drawings in readiness for the tender process.
The first release of 1,000 square meters of consulting rooms will focus on both current and new physicians and surgeons who have, and will continue to support, the current development of Newcastle Private Hospital.
Construction of phase one is set to commence in early 2016.
