Delivering vital health services to remote communities in regional Western Australia

Albany Health Campus

Constructed in the 1950s, Albany Hospital needed significant expansion to serve the needs of the growing community in southern Western Australia (WA). Our Electrical, Fire Protection, Mechanical, Sustainability, and Vertical Transportation teams were brought in to safeguard services to the existing hospital as it continued its activities throughout construction.

Our designs delivered a two-stage design and construct (D&C) contract for WA’s Office of Strategic Projects within the required timetable. Establishing a new central energy plant was key to our approach, allowing the new engineering infrastructure to be installed and commissioned and enabling support of the operational hospital whilst the expansion was constructed.

Our team also designed and documented the engineering services for the new facilities, including an emergency department, In- and Out-patient services, a sterile supply department and surgical services centre, plus five operating theatres and a commercial kitchen and laundry.

The revitalized Albany Health Campus delivers 130 beds in a state-of-the-art healthcare facility, providing local access to vital services and reducing the need for patient transfers.
