This upgrade was part of an $80 million investment in the Nepean health facility. The scope included the demolition of an existing ward and the refurbishment of a level three area including a four-bed room, a two-bed room, wet areas, showers, toilets, storage rooms, treatment room and staff station. The team was challenged by the complexity of work across separate operational floors, and created an external entrance while hoisting materials to the third level to minimise disruption. Staggered and extensive planning and designing coupled with outstanding communication resulted in an excellent outcome within demanding time constraints.
