Westmead Private Hospital

Leading Research

The Westmead Private Hospital is positioned at the gateway of the Westmead Health and Innovation District, which is set to be one of Australia’s largest health and research zones. The hospital provides state of the art facilities and supports the creation of the centre of excellence being created in Westmead.

STH was commissioned by Ramsay Health Care to design and deliver Stage 3 of the hospital redevelopment. The main building works included a three-floor addition to the front entry of the hospital, a new drop off, reception and waiting area, a 28-bed Inpatient Unit connecting on level one, and 13 new Consulting Suites on level two. The Interventional Suite was expanded to include two new Operating Theatres and a full refurbishment of the two existing Cardiac Catheter Laboratories.

The façade utilised tiles with an articulated form to invigorate the hospital’s prime position and street presence. 

The interior design concept focused around a warm, lush palette bringing a sense of luxury and hospitality to patients and visitors.  Soft surfaces and rich materials were used to create welcoming and comfortable spaces while being supported by best practice healthcare design.
