Woodhead is part of the design team undertaking the redevelopment of the Flinders Medical Centre in Adelaide. Design development work is currently underway for the $153m project. Woodhead is responsible for both the architecture and interior design, and health planning.
The first stage including the site-wide services infrastructure upgrade and the construction of the new four storey South wing is complete. Designed and constructed with a focus on Environmentally Sustainable Development principles, the new South wing aligns with the Green Building Council of Australia’s Green Star Healthcare Tool. The new wing will accommodates the Women’s Assessment and Birthing Services, Obstetrics and Gynaecology wards, outpatient clinics and administrative areas.
In addition to the completing the new South wing, the Acute Assessment Unit and Cardiac Care Unit is relocated and housed in purpose-built expanded accommodation.
The second stage will include the redevelopment and upgrade of aging ‘hot floor’ departments including operating theatres, recovery, emergency and intensive care.
The Flinders Medical Centre (FMC) is the major tertiary referral centre for acute care and emergency services in the southern region of Adelaide. The staged construction will ensure that all facilities remain open whilst the redevelopment takes place.
