Southern Cross Hospital

Southern Cross Healthcare’s $11m expansion of its Taranaki hospital has added two new operating theatres bringing the total to six, and a 12-bed post-anaesthesia care unit, a 13-chair day-procedure recovery area and a car park extension. The improved capacity will allow the hospital to better meet the increasing healthcare needs of the Taranaki region.  

RCP brought its wealth of project management expertise in the healthcare space to the job. The company was engaged as the design and project manager, and engineer to the contract, overseeing the project through design and construction. RCP also maintained strategic oversight to ensure that the upgrades were cognisant of the hospital’s long-term plan.
