Schiavello to upgrade Adelaide’s largest private hospital
Schiavello is proud to partner with RPS, ACHA, Wiltshire Swain, RLB, Lucid Engineering and WGA in the transformation of Adelaide’s Ashford Hospital.
The largest private hospital in Adelaide, and as part of the Adelaide Community Healthcare Alliance (ACHA), Ashford Hospital has been providing private healthcare services to the community for over 65 years.
This redevelopment will see upgrades to the existing hospital building and the new construction of a Day Procedure Unit (DPU).
Upgraded patient facilities and hospital infrastructure
The new DPU will double its current capacity from 14 to 30 chairs. The proposed facilities will be designed, constructed, and technologically integrated to provide enhanced care and support for day-patients.
Spanning both the ground floor and level one of the existing building, the Ashford Hospital redevelopment will provide upgraded patient facilities including specialist clinical areas. Wardrooms will also be redesigned and refurbished for optimal use of space.
This project will also provide major infrastructure works, including new HV works, MSSB upgrades, generator replacement and other essential services – further enhancing the ongoing energy security of the hospital.
“We’re proud to be part of this monumental investment in the future of our community’s healthcare. This redevelopment will allow Ashford Hospital to continue to provide state of the art healthcare and patient support for years to come,” Schiavello SA Construction Manager, Dale Sweeney.
The Ashford Hospital redevelopment will also result in a new entrance, reception area, on-site café, pharmacy, and support staff areas.
The project is due for completion in March 2020.
