P144 Mental Health Beds Expansion Program
The Northern Hospital expansion under construction.
The Northern Hospital featured here was one of 4 hospitals we worked on.
Making a significant difference to the care of mental health in Victoria.
Codus provided Relevant Building Surveyor services to 4 hospitals in the P144 Mental Health Beds Expansion Program: Northern Hospital, Sunshine Hospital, The Royal Melbourne Hospital and the McKellar Centre, which added 163 beds to the network. This program addresses the need to increase capacity, reduce pressure on emergency departments, & provide additional support for people experiencing mental illness who require immediate treatment in a contemporary, safe & high-quality setting.
The over $600M project generates new hospital-based beds which provide more than 93,504 days of care, enabling 6,500 more Victorians to access vital mental health services every year.
