The Gold Coast has finally been given a glimpse of what the new Coomera Hospital will look like.
Fresh artist impressions have been released today on the new facility which is set to open its doors to the public in 2027.
The $1.3 billion project is now in the design phase, following the announcement of Multiplex Constructions as the successful tenderer.
The new hospital will deliver 404 new beds for the Gold Coast region, including surgical, medical, ambulatory, sub-acute, emergency and mental health treatment facilities.
It’ll also feature a satellite medical imaging department, as well as new operating theatres, endoscopy rooms, birthing suites and consult rooms.
Speciality services will also be available at the Coomera Hospital including Intensive Care, Coronary Care and a Special Care Nursery.
Health Minister Shannon Fentiman says the hospital is absolutely critical for this evolving community.
“This will be a game-changer for people accessing healthcare on the Gold Coast,” Minister Fentiman says.
“We know how much the Gold Coast is growing, everyone wants to move here and you cannot blame them, but we have to make sure that those families on the northern Gold Coast have the very best healthcare close to home and that’s why this new hospital will deliver,
“This project will deliver 404 new beds, including surgical, medical, ambulatory, sub-acute and mental health inpatient beds for residents of the Northern Gold Coast.”
The big build will also create 3,100 local jobs during construction.
