On 2 December, Shadow Minister for Health & Ambulance Services and the State Member for Surfers Paradise, John- Paul Langbroek MP, officially unveiled the new Pindara Private Hospital Emergency Department Expansion and redeveloped South Coast Radiology Pindara facility. Mr Langbroek MP was joined by Gold Coast City Mayor Tom Tate and representatives from Ramsay Health Care, Pindara Private Hospital and South Coast Radiology to honour this momentous occasion for the Hospital. The $12 million new emergency department is the final phase of Stage 3 in Pindara’s 4 Stage Redevelopment Master Plan and has taken a year to complete. Pindara CEO, Trish Hogan, said that Ramsay Health Care has invested well over $100 million in Stages 1 & 2 of the Pindara Master Plan which has included the building of a five-level specialist suites tower, a multistorey car park, a new kitchen and the 120-bed Dr David Lindsay Wing. “At Pindara Private Hospital, we pride ourselves on providing world-class facilities and services for the Gold Coast community. This latest development means that we now have a world-class 24 hour accident and emergency centre that can support the thriving local community,” Mrs Hogan said. The Emergency Department is now a 27-bed facility which has expanded to three times its original size and is fitted out with the latest technology and equipment including cardiac monitoring capabilities for all acute beds, bedside ultrasound and video laryngoscopy. It will also be the only private emergency department on the Gold Coast to have a purpose-built isolation room for infectious disease. The newly-built, huge undercover ambulance bay is equipped with a hazardous materials shower and has direct access to the resuscitation room providing optimal conditions for the best patient outcomes. This exemplifies the way the Department has been designed with work-flow in mind so that everything a patient may require is at the fingertips of the team, including being co-located with the SCR imaging facility. The Patients’ Waiting Lounge is more comfortable with an interactive children’s entertainment area which compliments the separate nested paediatric emergency area with its restful and distracting animal murals.
