Following yesterday’s visit to the construction site for the new Monash Medical Centre Tower Expansion Project, you can now see first-hand what this new 7-storey tower will look like once the project is completed in 2029.
Monash Health CEO, Prof Eugine Yafele, and Chief Operating Officer, A/Prof Andrea Rindt, yesterday welcomed the Hon. Harriet Shing MP, Minister for Health and Melissa Horne MP Minister for Health Infrastructure to Monash Medical Centre, to tour the active construction site, as well as view updated designs on a number of the new rooms and facilities.
‘This is a significant investment in Monash Health and our community, allowing us to provide our world-leading care in world-class facilities,’ Eugine said.
‘The new Tower at Monash Medical Centre will expand our services alongside our growing community with more surgery, intensive care, newborn and maternity capacity, ensuring people get the best care, when they need it, closer to home.’
The new tower, which is being built above our existing emergency department, will feature new operating theatres, a new intensive care unit, expanded maternity services, new birth suites and a new central sterile services department (CSSD).
Several artist impressions were released during the ministerial event, showing the state-of-the-art facilities and equipment that will feature in the new tower.
