The Queensland Government is investing in a new tertiary teaching hospital on the Sunshine Coast to meet growing demand for hospital services and train local residents to be the health workforce of the future. Queensland Health has entered into a contract with Exemplar Health to design, finance, construct and maintain the hospital buildings for a period of 25 years once the hospital opens.
The Sunshine Coast University Hospital masterplan delivers a new tertiary hospital campus that draws on the natural healing environment of the Sunshine Coast. The hospital masterplan interleaves buildings with green spaces to enable patients, visitors and staff to freely access attractive landscaped spaces, blurring the distinction between internal and external environments to reflect the relaxed Sunshine Coast lifestyle.
