Gold Coast Secure Mental Health Rehabilitation Unit tops out
Major milestone reached at new mental health facility at the Gold Coast University Hospital
The team recently celebrated topping out at the Gold Coast University Hospital’s Secure Mental Health Rehabilitation Unit (SMHRU), the first facility of its kind on the Gold Coast.
The final roof sheet was installed in March, signalling a shift in construction as the team now focuses on fitting out the facility’s interior.
BESIX Watpac began early site works in February 2023, and completed the standard and special Prototype Bedrooms that will be used as the blueprint for 40-bed facility.
The 40 beds will be split between two self-contained units on each level. The facility will connect with the hospital by a semi-enclosed linkway, which will connect the new unit to existing mental health facilities.
The project has been a collaborative effort, involving input from clinicians, stakeholders, and individuals with lived experience, being carefully constructed by BESIX Watpac to ensure the facility meets the specific needs of its future users.
Congratulations to the team on reaching this significant construction milestone.
