WCH redevelopment news

The WCH is continuously updating and improving its infrastructure to ensure advancement in patient care and research. The redevelopment of an organisation the size and complexity of the WCH is never ending. The WCH's Master Plan sets the framework for redevelopment and is useful in explaining how the expansion or upgrade of one area will affect another. A long-range Master Plan of more than five years is difficult to create and it is important that it remains flexible.

The Facilities and Assets Planning (FAP) Unit is responsible for redevelopment at the WCH and its job is to make sure every department has the facilities it needs. While the FAP team oversees entire redevelopment projects, up to 100 outside contractors are involved.
