Detailed design

LV00_ED_Paeds-Play-Spacecompressed.png

The project team has recently completed more than 400 hours of consultation with project user groups (PUGs) to finalise the detailed designs for all areas of the new development.
 
This approach is based on an evidence-based framework supported by the Australian Health Facility Guidelines and experienced Health Architects.
 
Members of PUGs are selected to ensure a broad representation of stakeholders from within the service and are made up of hospital staff and clinicians.

They are consulted routinely throughout all stages of the design (concept, schematic, detailed) and their feedback ensures the spaces we build are purpose-built to meet the healthcare needs of patients, staff and the broader community.
 
The list of lead representatives for each of the PUGs is below – these staff are also a great source of information if you want to know more about the new spaces you’ll be working in.
