title: Perth facility to meet population growth.
abstract: Australia has two pioneering hospital projects nearing completion - the Gold Coast University Hospital in Queensland, and the Fiona Stanley Hospital in Perth. Both of these demonstrate how a patient-centred philosophy can be applied to large-scale healthcare developments. Kieren Morgan, a Principal at Hassell, the architectural firm on both schemes, describes the key considerations and objectives that informed the firm's design of the Fiona Stanley Hospital, and the project team's determination that it should be one of the world's most advanced medical facilities.
