Further, the ground floor links into the existing emergency departments at the front and the back, achieving a one-way patient flow in line with the client’s requirements.

The first floor of the building, with staff offices, meeting rooms and staff rest area is due to hand over in the coming weeks. 

Work continues on the external cladding and landscaping, with a new lobby entrance due to begin construction in mid-May, and the new internal streaming and triage areas following on after that.
