John Ferraro
Chief Operating Officer Western HealthAgenda Day 1
9:00 AM PROJECT CASE STUDY: BUILT, MOVED AND OPEN: THE REAL STORY BEHIND VICTORIA'S $1.5 BILLION FOOTSCRAY HOSPITAL
Western Health's new Footscray Hospital is one of Victoria's largest ever health infrastructure investments. Russell Harrison takes delegates behind the scenes - from design and user groups through to a single-day move of 115 patients — sharing the unfiltered lessons learned across every stage of delivery.
• What the design and user group process actually looked like in practice, and where co-design made the biggest difference
• How a two-year operational readiness program prepared staff, systems and patients for a single-day live hospital move
• The honest lessons learned across design, build and go-live that every project team should hear before they break ground
