Designing a complex radiology facility within an operational hospital.

PROJECT MANAGEMENT. CONSTRUCTION.

A UNIQUE CHALLENGE.

Epworth Radiology is a partnership between two leading names in Australian healthcare – Epworth Healthcare and Sonic Healthcare. They needed a total overhaul of their existing radiology facility. Its dated look called for our team to bring the aesthetic into the 21st century with a sophisticated, modern design. The challenge? Our work had to be completed in an operational hospital environment.

A STAGED
APPROACH.

To achieve safety and operational continuity, we segmented the project into 6 stages, executing the design incrementally. By carefully scheduling work in off-peak times (after hours), our phased approach protected patient care, reduced interference, and allowed critical hospital functions to continue as normal.

EFFECTIVE
MANAGEMENT.

By carefully managing trades and contractors, we ensured a smooth construction process within the planned schedule. Practiced coordination between our internal teams, contractors, and project managers allowed us to optimise resource allocation, minimise errors, and prevent several potential conflicts and delays.

CATERING TO
SPECIFIC NEEDS.

Epworth Radiology had intricate needs. One of which was a PET nuclear medicine imaging area. By working closely with SMEs and equipment suppliers, we tailored the design to support specialised equipment, shielding, and strict safety protocols. Our team also ensured precise HVAC systems, radiation protection measures, and advanced imaging technology to meet the distinct requirements of a modern medical imaging facility.

NON-DISRUPTIVE DELIVERY.

We delivered a modern radiology facility on schedule and within budget. The new space elevated Epworth’s brand, increased staff satisfaction and created a better environment for their patients. We’re immensely proud to have successfully delivered a complex facility within a live hospital environment, while ensuring minimal disruption to patient care.
